    Bent subframe or A-Arm??

    I hit a rock on the yamaha skid plate pretty hard and I know now It definately takes a pretty good hit to bend them. Don't get me wrong the sled is still drivable and the only reason I am bending it back is I am a little anal about my stuff. it has to look good before I ride it. I rode 700 miles...

    Handle bar riser without having to change e-brake cable

    I am 6ft tall and have an FX Nytro. Right now I have the stock riser on it. When standing I don't have any bend in my arms. I believe if I added a riser I would have better control of the sled. what would you recomend? :dunno: I was thinking about a rox riser??

    1/8" free play on throttle?

    thanks for the help. I know my bud with a 1200 poo brought his throttle to zero and it seemed to help. For right now I still have him in a drag race from start to finish. he is installing a pro-line clutch soon??? My clutching is still stock. I still haven't seen a clutch kit that is doing much...

    1/8" free play on throttle?

    Should there be any free play on the throttle? I know there is some play @ the pivot point of the throttle. I was wondering if I should zero out the cable side of the throttle. Basically I just want to see if I remove the 1/8" of play will help @ WOT?

    *XTX is FASTER than the RTX SE & 1200 4-Tec*

    agreed!!! Too many pics! I have an 08 shorty fx Nytro and was pulling better numbers then the 3 XTX's @ an Ice Drag in southern Maine. 101 on the gun. In 1000" with a ton of spin for the 1st 400 - 500 ft. All of us were studded and I have to have the worst stud pattern of them all. 96 pics down...

    exhaust doughnuts?

    It is a little bit of a process. remove seat, tank, then remove the heat shield closest to the motor 3 bolts. You will see the 3 clamps there. Then remove the clamps (dealer told me to take a pair of vice grips and remove the spacer so you get extra clamping pressure there is just one tack weld...

    Wifes Nytro let us down!

    Read my earlier post beat one from start to finish. Loose snow on a lake in Maine. approx 1 mile run.

    Wifes Nytro let us down!

    They put a spacer on the clamps so you can't tighten them too much. My dealer said remove the spacer and you will not have this problem. Are you thinking of changing brands just because you had a wiring issue with your wifes sled? I know this will leave you with a sour taste in you mouth, but I...

    exhaust doughnuts?

    When mine was warm the rattle was louder. Just get rid of the spacer on the clamp then you can tighten the clamps so you will not have this issue. 600 mles this weekend and no rattling after I fixed it. Just your normal Yamaha clutch noise.

    Wifes Nytro let us down!

    Sorry to hear about your misfortune, but I have 3150 miles on my 08 Nytro w/ no real problems. Most rescent was my exhaust doughnuts. other than trouble free. Rode 600 miles this weekend and I was a very proud owner of my 08 FX Nytro. :Rockon: It was even happier when my Boss wanted to line up...

    exhaust doughnuts?

    I have 2800 miles on my sled. I took off the clamps and 1 doughnut was O.K the ther 2 were pretty much gone. My dealer told me to remove the spacer which limits the clamping pressure. Take a pair of vice grips and just break off the spacer. I have to get some new doughnuts today. The rattling...

    exhaust doughnuts?

    I am almost definate. I know the clutch is noisy but this is a rattle that is coming from under the sled. I had the seat 0ff a couple of weeks ago and it wasn't as loud as it now. it sounds like something is loose in a tin can. You can hear it over the clutch though. Very annoying. I wish the...

    exhaust doughnuts?

    my 08 fx Nytro's exhaust doughnuts are making quite a racket? My warranty is up and I am not sure if there was a bulletin on these either? Has anyone replaced them or should I try my dealer and see if he will cover them. Also if it is my expense whats the damage to my wallet? Please advise...

    07 apex gt wow

    I heard through the grape vine you were back Pete!!! Good luck with your new GT. I dragged my buds 1200 renegade this weekend @ mousam and if we both hooked up I would pull him and he could not catch me as stated in the doo Forums. He was getting 88 - 90 mph on the gun and I hit 101 on the gun...
