I too am curious about the e-tec. From what I've read, it's very quick, and easy on fuel and oil. My neighbour has the 800xp, I drive a 06 Attak - both are 100% stock. Late last year we finally had a chance to race. Under perfect hard pack conditons (zero track spin) he would pull me by...

I have the trail Slydogs on my Attak. I had to add Bergstrom Triples and his ski savers to help with the darting - not cured, but better. Would I buy the Slydogs again? probably not.

Go buy an older, used sled then. I'm sure it will prove to be more reliable......... ahem.

My neighbor rides a 2008 XP 800. We started out on a overnight trip with both tanks full. When we filled up (I have a 2006 Attak) he put in $22, I put in $24. Exact same riding style, same conditions, everything. He still brags that his sled gets better gas mileage to this day, however, I...

I have to echo your assesment exactly Big Mac. My neighbor has a 800 xp, I have a 06 Attak. We've switched sleds, and re-ridden the same length of trail. Mine felt more "car" like, if that makes sense. His felt more "dirt-bike" like. Both in my opinion are similar power wise. We've yet...

Mine froze for the first time this morning, after lots of powder riding last night (sat in an un-heated garage overnight). It loosened up after it got warm. I suppose there are more "pressing" problems. Lube as the others said, and forget about it.

Slydog ski's alone will not prevent the Apex darting. You'll need different carbides with them. Trust me, I tried. Bergstrom triple points with his ski-savers were the solution (cures 80% of the problem). In hind-site, I might have just gone with the Bergstroms and kept the stock skis.

I have Slydog Trails on my 06 Attak. I adjusted my ski alignment to neutral or slightly toed-in, then played with the front shocks (shimming was not required because the Slydog rubber bumpers alone raised the leading edge of the runners 1/8" or so above the back) It still darted. The only...

Thanks for the replies, Yamahagirl - Bringing one in from the US is not a viable option for me (though I do realize the potential savings). It is white and it is a GT, 2007 model year. Turk - $7200 from DT? So I'm in the ballpark then with Orillia Motorsports. I'm sure there is room for...

I'm looking to buy the GF a sled this year. She has her heart set on a white 07 GT Phazer. My dealer (who has been very good to me with my 06 Attak) has one on the floor. He obviously wants to get rid of it, he quoted me $7400 (CDN). My cost would be the $7400, plus freight (i assume)...

The manual recommends fogging the engine, and puting several shots of oil down the spark plug holes. Pain in the "you-know-what" to remove the plugs, I think I must just fog the engine this year.

My 06 Attak has one to.

Here's a lenghty thread on chaincase levels http://www.ty4stroke.com/viewtopic.php?t=34854&start=0

I wondered about that to - haven't ridden it yet. I'll let you guys know after this weekend if it holds up.
