Hey everybody!
I drove stock fx nytro rtx one winter..it is good sled already stock but I want to make it better freeride sled. Hopefully you understand my english, it is not very good.
A couple of photos last winter, when it was almost standard.
This was a little problem.
Start situation
Then occured a little accident
new front frame fitted.
Old "elephant ears" must to change to better boards.
So I made itself new running boards for aluminum.
and installed..
Then old "soffa"
And new seat.
I took studprotector off.
I wondered end of the winter why engine will not spin faster than 7200rpm. That's why. I must to screw up about 1cm (0,4")
Old and new track. It is 141 " x 15" x 2.25".
Oops.
New bigger wheels.
I went sliding across the frame last winter so I made reinforcements.
Hopefully they withstand even they are only 6mm thick.
New tunnel lengthening
I puted PE-plastic tunnel.
Anymore must to put rear shocks and track suspension in position. Track suspension front shock was broken and I bought new shock. Also, I used to support, and adjusted all the harder and more sensitive to shocks.
At weekend snowmobile has been finished. Waiting for winter..

Awesome pics!
Love the mods. It seems like everyone in Finland knows how to fabricate. You guys all seem to build cool stuff!

Nytro is a great freeride sled so I made film about this. Includes jumping, powder surfing, trail driving, snocross etc.
