    Highest Speeds on Sidewinder/Thundercat

    You can get more then 110 with 24/50, I got 121 with 22/48...I think depending on your clutch set-up 126-127 to 134'ish is attainable..(I'm talking speedo speed here)..so most likely less on GPS by a bit..(this on 2017-2023) I hit 137 speedo with my 2014 on avatar..(This machine up until...

    2016 RUMORS.......

    Apex are already 5 valve head - why would you want 4? I agree with more cc's and better rods(so the main caps don't fall off) like what happened to my RX-1 and three of my friends, - nobody got warranty - But better rods and more cc would do it - with a factory turbo option for 300hp...Now that...

    I was told by a YAMAHA REP. STAY OFF THIS SITE

    I changed to cat for that reason: I had an SRX blow up(oil pump unbolted itself), Had my RX-1 put a rod through the block - well enough of that!! And like you I was the only fella having these problems! I had enough - and funny I took had a dozens friends with me! There's not a stock sled that...

    07 apex rpm's very low and stalls when warm on idle

    I'm so aggravated by ethanol effects. Would it be possible that spit back gets at these air bleeds or can they be blocking for corrosive reasons? I figure like what you just said if the holes are blocked(slides closed) and sled idling it's not so noticeable at cold start idle because the...

    07 apex rpm's very low and stalls when warm on idle

    I suspecting the ethanol in the fuel(same as it blocks the pilot jets on carbed machines) well if the small bleed holes get plugged on your injector feed - this alters the idle when warm making the machine too rich. I did the same as Gukrokit above and has helped a lot. you may want to play with...

    Rear Suspension Maintainence '06 GT

    I have an 06 - and the front arm let go within the second year I had it(bought new), the initial part number has been superseded twice I believe..never had a problem with the second arm(now at 10,000miles), I just sand blasted the entire skid to re-paint Honda Fiji pearl blue B529P color - nice...

    07 apex rpm's very low and stalls when warm on idle

    It's official - like most have reported the C0 adjustment is working very well indeed! I've got the Ulmer Airbox mod and I went from 15 to 8 and this has done the trick...(about 95% anyway).. May have to fine tune a bit more... Mine now idles at 1600rpm.. But if I let it idle for like 20...

    wiring electric shield due to blowing fuses on 2009 apex

    I've used a 4 amp and it has made a difference - but stills blows occasionally (once a winter)sure the 5 amp would take care of it!

    07 apex rpm's very low and stalls when warm on idle

    Wow - my sled has been doing this for about a year now.. After the initial start it did the hoeky idle after about 10-15 seconds - same as many of you guys mentioned on here. It has 7600 miles on the odometer... I've checked quite a few things and figured maybe the TPS as some have...

    Brand new Apex -31c won't start , I got left behind..:(

    Always worked, never an issue! But don't go loading the air box up and then trying to fire it up... Open the lid stick the torch beak in there open the gas and crank right away...it starts right up! That way I don't have to worry about frozen throttle cables or other issues that water can...

    First rides on 06 Apex GT (COLD HANDS)

    Stators go anyway - my 06 has only 6000 miles bone stock handle bars and all - stator replaced last spring... I'd say go ahead and wire them up...

    Key on runs down battery?

    It keeps your solenoids on, stator plate on and everything on standby waiting for you to start the engine... If you hit the kill switch then this takes over and saves the day for you... You need to shut off either...

    HELP!!, Apex wont idle high enough and motor shuts off.

    Sounds silly but check this guys.. Just brought 2 sleds into the dealer for same thing - one with 6500 miles other with 11,000miles... 11,000 miles was worse - wouldn't idle at all.. Dealer found that the three bolts behind the secondary clutch wear out in time... This causes your...

    Changing my track..tips??

    I unscrew the tensioners right to the end, loosen the limiters straps, tilt the machine on it's side slide the suspension in, install two bolts, flip the other side, install two other bolts. Then put machine on the stand and put a 4x4 under the track to compress front of suspension...re-attach...

    Apex vs A.C. Turbo?

    I beat em - but I'm tuned. It's not impossible but would require you to spend about 400.00(not counting studs) I assume you are both studded or unstudied(equal)? hole shot no problem, mid no problem generally, top end - you have problems..but the 400 takes care of that.. Send me a pm if...
