We have two Vipers, a '15 & '16 and have never had any issues with starting in cold weather. One of our snowmobiling buddies just bought a used '16 with 7400 miles on it. Last weekend we had all three sleds outside and his wouldn't start. We pulled it into the heated garage and after about an...

Hi again Marty, Depending on how fast you ride and trail conditions, it can be as little as 2 1/2 or as much as 4 hours to get to Lake in the Clouds. If you are going to Pat's, you'll definitely want to go to White Pine on trail 1 and catch 12E/N through Ontonagon. It will be about 2 - 3...

Hi Marty F, First, 11N goes north between Bessemer and Wakefield; from that junction, it is 47 miles to the bottom of the hill going to Lake in the Clouds. It is 16 miles round trip from that point up and back to Lake in the Clouds. From that point, it is 9 miles to gas. So if I calculated...

Marty F, I will get you mileage when I get home from work, I don't have the snowmobile map here, look for it around 6 pm CST.

If you take 11N out of Wakefield, it takes you to the Porkies on Lake Superior. If you are worried, top off in Wakefield or Bessemer. Once you get up to Lake in the Clouds, you can come down and go through Silver City and take 1S and top off at the Konteka in White Pine, only gas between...

Warrior :yam: I've had mine 6 years, 6700 miles. I've had to rebuild the rear suspension and primary clutch this year. Right now it won't idle; have it in to see if its the carbs like it was the first season I had it, clogged pilot jets .. hope that's all. Can't wait to ride it either...

Yamadog, Where are you finding a monoshock suspension for $200. I was looking at just a new spring for my rear shock on my '04 Warrior and it is $199 + shipping. I've got almost 7Kmiles on my sled and am not looking to replace it. I would like some more rear support though. Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback; we plan to go through the skids and chaincases this summer. I had the speedo end bearing go out this season and will replace other end this year. I always took out the skids to grease on my older Yammies, they didn't have zerks; that's why I haven't taken them out to...

Has anyone had trouble with the rear end sagging, setting low, on their warrior? I already replaced the non-rebuildable(sp) shock and it didn't make a difference; no, I'm not heavier either :exc:. Any suggestions and ideas are appreciated. :4STroke:

Hey did you check the other end of the driveshaft bearing while you were working on it? I've got 6500 miles on my '04 Warrior and the bearing went on the speedo end, took out the sensor ..... sealed bearing. Found in forum and yamaha that you should replace both ends ... plan to do the...

There is another thread that said there is a speedo/odometer fuse (10A) in a fuse box on the right side of the sled. My bearing went completely out last weekend on a round trip form DA UP to Eagle River (262.5 miles). It took out the sensor and the magnet was warn, that's the gear on the end...

I've got 5894 miles on my '04 Warrior, as of last Sunday; not done for the season, yet. I replaced the shock in the back this season; didn't really fix what I thought was wrong, backend squats and I backed up one day and ripped off the flap. Other than blowing a belt last season and...

What is this gear reduction noise you are talking about? I thought it was a rattle in the primary clutch. I raised the idle a little to eliminate the rattling noise. I never had any rattle until I blew a belt last season. Had to have the clutches pulled to remove strands of webbing from...

Headlights on RX body style Thought I'd add about the same problem I had to fix this past Sunday on my '04 RX Warrior. If the headlamp 20A fuse has been blowing while riding, you may have experienced the same problem I did; I only had one spare 20A fuse when it blew the second time and had...
