    ATF in chaincase

    Thats all I had in the barn when I put it back together. Any reason why I should drain it and fill it with gear lube? I used ATF in my dirtbike chaincases for years and had less (actualy none) gear/clutch problems than most others who used the recommended viscosity engine oil in their bikes/quads.

    Another front end out of whack?sub frame?spindles?a-arms?

    After I finished my 128 conversion I lowered it off the hoist and all of sudden there it was. My left ski sits slightly back from the right ski (visually) and the gap between my GYTR springs between the top a-arms is different from side to side. Also.... my spindles are not both the same in...

    Snow flap mod your ridding friends will appreciatte w pics

    Lowered it approx 1" and added cables to keep it from standing straight out after ice packs behind it. The guys said its like riding behind a :die Also used round 1/2" closed cell foam in between the chassis and the flap to prevent the dust from covering tail light and then lowered the...

    Std FX rear shock valving

    Anyone do any revalving or oil thickness changes yet? Since Im still debating if I can run these 10 tooth extros Im wondering if I should take advantage of the time and (warm weather) and do a little shock tweaking. My initial thought was to just have them both dumped and recharged with...

    8DN belt and sheave grooves at 800 miles

    I already have grooves in the lower sheaves from that titanium 8DN belt and Mr. Tom Hartman not only recommended the Ultimax 3 belt that is softer, but said to INSIST that Yamaha replace my sheaves with only 800 miles and 4 nice grooves cut in already. Any thoughts about this? BTW, Tom...

    The great stud debate

    With the 128 x 5 x 1" Hack Im leaning towards 153 with the 51 double/51 single all in the center belt concept. Should I do 170 for durability sakes? Are Rotein Hornets really that damn good considering the outrages price Anyone read about the Rotein "Master Mix" with Skorpion and Hornets...

    Anti-ratchet drivers

    Tomorrow Im putting in my 128 x 15 x 1 with ALL windows open track. Should I do the drivers while Im in there already? With 800 miles and several adjustments the ratcheting has greatly reduced and not to mention the high tension of the track hasnt really affected my sliders as they both still...

    Stock ski modification/experiment with PICS

    Any bets on this? I started off to just bevel the hard right angle edge off the keel top edges, then I went and did my own version of "snow induction", then I just couldnt stop so I added grooves on the bottom of each side to reduce tracking. I'll laugh my azz off if ths actually works...

    Handling improvement ideas hit me last night

    Has anyone experimented with lowering the #*$&@ end a notch with the rear arm limiter strap? I dont like giving up travel but im no snow crosser anyhow. The ski's are centered with 2 bushings, why couldnt you stagger the ski on the spindle to widen the stance another 1-2"? Other than for...

    300 miles this weekend and I made a little progress....

    **Put 3/8 brass spacers (Bergrstom copies) under the ski spindle to tip the front of the stock Yami skis up **Pulled the limiter strap up 1 hole **Loosened the front ski spring pre-load.. Could only back them off a few turns before the springs were actually loose when fully extended...

    Tracks: Every third compared to fully clipped

    What exactly is the objective of every third window closed? I use to think it was to hold snow in and improve slider lube/life, etc. Just reading a Camoplast of Canada add it is basicaly for economy and makes the tracks cheaper to manufacture. I havnt noticed any improvements in slider...

    Keeping the clutch cool

    Had this left over from the SLP cold air kit for my buddy's Fusion and put it to good use. Not the best location for inducting cold air but it opens up the area a bit since there doesnt seem to be much of a flow through the clutches under the clutch cover on these.....

    1st ride today---track ratcheting bad or chain jumping?????

    Took it out around the yard this morning after the 2" of snow we got last night and after getting it warm I hit it coming up from the basement walk out and it ratcheted horribly. I made a few more laps around the yard and whenever I got into it hard it would jump. Took it back into the barn and...

    Nytro FX standard vs RTX

    Basically FOX floats compared to GYTR fronts and the rear has a resovoir/dual clicker on the front arm---right? I have noticed the front shock springs on my std are wound to the max and it feels like it when you push on the front bumper----the rear feels real soft from pushing on the rear...
