    Exhaust flex pipe.

    Replacing all three exhaust flex pipes on my 06 Vector. I noticed something perplexing to me with the new flex pipes, part #8ES-14615-01-00. The flange of the new flex pipe that seats against the engine block all seem to be reversed from the original flex pipes that I removed. The original ones...

    Powerbloc 80

    Anyone have experience with a CVTech Powerbloc 80 primary clutch on their Vectors. Have 45,000 kms on my Vector, and the clutching is tired. Thinking of going to the Powerbloc 80 primary, instead of a new Yamaha primary.

    High milage exhaust failure.

    Just something to inspect when changing exhaust donuts or have the suspension out. Have 06 Vector with 40,000 kms . So, on a week long tour last winter, when on the morning of our third day my exhaust was gradually becoming quite loud. A cold -40 cel morning, just starting out, assumed it was...

    Valve clearance.

    Approaching 40,000 kms on my 06 Vector. Wondering if anyone has had their valve clearances checked or adjusted. What are the symptoms of out of spec valve clearances? Is this a do it yourself job, or a Yamaha tech job?

    Turbo Yamaha finally!

    Too bad it's an Arctic Cat with a turboed Vector engine. 2015 Arctic cat ZR 7000 RR. I think Yamaha has just given up, they need a serious infusion of new ideas and better engineers.

    Extrovert drivers.

    Installing a new ice attack track which is fully clipped. Have a chance to buy a used driveshaft from 2003 RX1 with new Super 9 tooth drivers. Does anyone know if this set-up will work on my 2006 Vector or is it worth it to do so? Thanks.

    Marginal snow wheel kit vs. hyfax wheel extender kit .

    Which offers the best bang for the buck if could only afford one of these? My hyfax will wear through at the front curve of the rear suspension before anywhere else, and I do manage to get about 3000 miles out of my hyfax. Which of these systems would work better? The marginal snow wheel kit...

    Track Clips

    Have 05 Warrior, getting ready for the season. After replacing the hyfaxes, have noticed several severely worn and missing track clips. I think all the clips should be replaced. What is the best way and tools to use to remove and replace these clips? Cannot find a part number for these clips...

    warrior exhaust assembly

    Was replacing the exhaust donuts on my 2005 Warrior. Noticed that the exhaust flange was broken off on one y-pipe of the exhaust assemblies and the three others are badly worn. So looks like that I need to also replace the 2 exhaust assemblies. Now the original part numbers are 8FU-14610-00-00...

    Carb question?

    Purchased used 2005 Warrior. Decided to clean the carbs. Found that all the fuel screws were set differently. Anywhere from 1.5 to .25 turns to bottom the screw. So do I put the screws back to the same positions, or do I set them all at 1.5 turns from bottom. Seems to me that they should all be...
