Hey crk1333, I see your from TC. Did you know Classic Motor sports is your new Yamaha dealer in town?? They bought Daves Yamaha inventory over the summer in Cadillac. They should be able to switch over your shock under warranty before the snow flies. Good luck

100% percent agree evil eagle. Since i have a 15 apex also, night and difference in ride between the two. The 15 is a much better ride.

Those with the 16 apex should have it done through warranty and not have to fork out the 499. My 16 apex was covered under warranty just like the 17 apex is. For those that may have paid for this shock, I would demand my money back or dispute it hard.

It appears yamaha is doing the right thing by replacing the shock with a better one. I do agree the origianl shock should have never happened by installing them on a top of the line product. I also agree the dealers are being put in the middle. When this is all said and done, if yamaha did...

I can't wait to try it out if we get ridable snow. I am glad they had this shock in stock.

I got a phone call from my dealer that my new upgraded shock is on its way for my 16 apex covered under warranty. I am responsible for the cost of installation. Thanks for the positive input .

I have a 15 apex and 16 apex le(spring order). The ride difference between the two is so different. I ride the 15 more than the 16 while trying to get yamaha to give me a better shock for the last year. Still waiting for the dealer to call with good info regarding changing the shock on the...

Porta parts---Why should I owner of a 16 apex have to fork out 499 dollars when my buddy who has a 17 apex gets his shock upgrade for free? That is not fair or a great deal/offer from Yamaha. Should treat everbody equally and fairly.

I am a good customer with the dealer, he has called and put a warranty claim in for my 16 apex. Will see what they say in a couple of days.

Any hints how to get customoer relations to cover my 16 apex le? They seem to be just passing the buck with me. Thanks

Thanks for your input Apex2007. Is thier anyone in the states that had thier 2016 apex rear shock replaced?

I called and my dealer called and they said in the states its only for the 2017 apex. I know the skids are the same for the 16 and 17 but no one wants to help. What do I do next?? Keep calling customer service at yamaha???

Can anyone give me some input on the shock replacement? I have had ride challenges being stiff on my 16 apex. I have noticed some people that have 16 apex that yamaha is replacing them for you. I called customer service and also my dealer called and yamaha told them that it applies to the 17...

My buddy just texted me and said the chaincase is making noise . It goes into forward and reverse and when he takes off the chaincase is making noise. Will load back up on trailer and take into dealer in the am. Will update when dealer fixes this. Thanks for all input.

StevewithOCD, I have owned over 25 new yamahas and being I had to tow him it just did not seem right. It still is not right to just pop out of drive like it did. He actually could turn the secondary with belt on so even I thought the chain broke or gear in the chaincase. I will only buy...
