    2011 Apex valve adjustment and cam position sensor

    2011 Apex XTX with 14,000 miles and well cared for and runs fine: Reading posts about checking valve clearances I decided it would be a good idea to check mine considering the mileage. The manual I have for 2006 to 2010. Are the adjustment instructions and clearance specs the same for 2011 and...

    Hauck roller secondary mod

    Has anyone tried the Hauck roller secondary mod on an Apex? I'm considering trying it to eliminate the belt chirp that happens when getting on the brakes hard then back on the gas and the tell tale belt rubs on the under side of the belt guard. Looking for experienced feedback.

    Impressed with Phazer

    I bought a low mileage 2009 Phazer RTX last season for my grandson to ride thinking they weren't very powerful and maybe 60 mph. After having it for two seasons now I really like this sled. Snow-Tech or Yamaha Bash-tech or Ski-doo-Tech...whatever you want to call them; had an article calling the...

    CO setting 2007 & 2008

    Does anyone know if there are different CO settings between a 2007 Apex and a 2008? We have one of each year in our stable and the 2007 acts like it is lean at idle and hesitates when trying to rev it up. The 2008 seems fine and revs up more crisp. I remember from a few years ago that some guys...

    Star Suspension???

    Any one know how to get a response out of these guys at Star Suspension? I've called several times and it goes to voice mail in French I think. No one ever answers the phone. I tried an e-mail several weeks ago and no reply either. I was interested in the geometry correction kit for my XTX...

    Trailer cover experienced opinions

    I'm looking for a newer 12' covered trailer and wondering about the good and bad of clam shell covers. Aluminum Triton style covers compared to the canvas Snocaps compared to the fiberglass Aero covers. The Snocaps look like they may be a pain to roll the ends down and sinch the straps...

    Gogebic last weekend

    So, was anyone else in the UP Gogebic area last weekend? We saw snowmobiles by the thousands including a boat load of Yamaha 4 strokes running around. Several 2011's and 2012's and of course a lot of the new AC's.

    Polaris extra 10 skid in Apex

    I'm looking for anyone who has put a Polaris extra 10 skid in an Apex. Not that I want to but, one of the guys in our riding group aquired one with the extra 10 already in it. We thought it was an edge skid because it has newer Fox shocks in it...until we looked closer at it. I want to find out...

    After sitting for a couple weeks, finally got more snow to ride on. Got to ride 75 miles at my favorite place...the Des Moines river and a chance to stretch the Apex legs a little. Put studs in and some bergstrom tripple points with ski savers since ditch riding two weeks ago. The...

    Apex XTX first ride review

    Like the heading says...got the first ride today on my new Apex XTX. 40 miles of ditch banging. Never touched any adjustments from when I picked it up at the dealer just to see what it does. Coming from an SRX, it took a little getting used to. It definitly sits higher than previous Apexs...

    New sled home

    Picked up my new Apex XTX yesterday :jump: What a sweet ride! It is parked next to a 2008 Apex. At first glance, the body looks the same. A closer look and every panel on it is different. The exhaust sound is awsome. Throttle response noticable more snappy. Drove it a very short...

    Hyper chip---any one tried it?

    There are so called "Hyper Chips" or "Genisis Chip" for sale on e-bay for Yamaha 4 strokes. Claims to change fuel settings. Any one tried one of these? Sounds like it automatically does what a GEMS controller does. Here's a couple links: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/PERFORMA ...
