    RS Venture Pre-Studded 151 Track

    It's not the lug height that is the issue, it's the pitch!

    RS Venture Pre-Studded 151 Track

    All I can find is the Camoplast 151 x 2.52 single ply track. Nothing else in that length. Yes I do get the "harmonic resonance" at approx 50 kph. I've described what I have done in the other thread. (basically speed up) I believe someone stated that you can change the pitch to 3.00 ( and change...

    RS Venture TF- New, and not pleased.

    Dealer adjusted the track (?) and both clutches were in need of a rebuild. Strange as it only had 6K on it, I have 30K on the RX-1 and never needed to rebuild the clutches. I think either the dealer (different one) or the PO, swapped the clutches out before they sold it! Anyway, 90% of the...

    RS Venture Pre-Studded 151 Track

    Anyone know if anyone makes a pre-studded 151 track? Really don't want to stud the existing one.

    RS Venture TF- New, and not pleased.

    Did you ever get this fixed? (re: Vibration & Engine growl) Just bought a 2015 that does the same thing. It's at the dealer now for their diagnosis

    Rear Suspension Rebuild...........again

    One of the issues with owning an older sled, is the recurring maintenance! On top of the usual bearings that need replacing, this year I decided to check some bushings! Good job I did , as they all needed replacing, plus I found some broken brackets. Anyway 3 days and $500 to Yamaha later, it's...

    Over 16,000 hard miles and going strong

    24000 km (15ooo mi) on my 04, and I'm in the same boat. Would love to get something newer, but I can't justify the expense when this one is still going strong. Best mods are the Temp Gauge, Apex seat, 13mm sway bar, and Floats up front. I have rebuilt the skid twice, and donuts twice and the y...

    05 rx1 header cracked !

    Actually your headers don't look too bad! I would turn up some new flares on the lathe and weld them on the old pipes, after you cut the old flares off. If your not equipt to do this, any good machine shop could do it cheaper than a new header pipe.

    Who's going to build the first side by side snowmobile

    There are a couple of Elites in my area, I see them occasionally. They are good on rail beds and lakes, but I can't see them on some of the current trails. They are just too wide.

    RX 1 carburator question

    Never cleaned the carbs in my 04 either. When storing for the summer, I will drain the tank, add a little stabil, then run the engine until the carbs go dry. This will get the stabilizer into all the passages in the carb and prevent gumming. Never have had an issue with it stating in the fall.

    rx1 blinking temp light

    With a temp gauge installed you can keep an eye on the coolant temp, and when it stats to climb pack some snow or ice on the rear of the running boards, and it will bring the temp back down I've found that it will heat up faster at low speed (idling through town) but once you start moving...
