    Excessive Slider Ware

    What conditions are you riding in? If you are on plowed roads or hard packed trails, the right will tend to get a little more snow from the edge as you fallow the right hand edge. I will sometimes drag my feet to kick in snow or use dish soap. The 14's have an even taller lug then mine. Look...

    New wider ski

    I'm not sure which saddles I had. I specified that it was for the vk pro when I ordered them and I did have a problem bolting the right up with the stock rubber. I ended up leaving the rubber out because I preferred the way it handled.

    Adding auxiliary lights

    Where would it be best to get power for the for the signal/switch side of the relay when adding lights? I'm looking for a circuit that doesn't have power when the key is off and that won't affect anything else. I've been looking for wire diagram but unable to find one. :o|

    9" or 11" ski skin performance?

    I found that the 9" Yamaha skin was not much wider then the ski, threw tones of snow up on the hood filling the engin with snow and ice when in the powder (I had to make vent covers to keep the snow out), and dart like crazy on the trail without an aftermarket runner. I don't recommend the 9". I...

    New wider ski

    Has anyone got the chance to ride and do a direct comparison between the old and new factory ski? I have a set of Simmons genII that are awesome at speed but don't fit my needs. I spend lots of time picking my way threw log filled swamps and other really slow moving odd places and the genII is...

    The next Yamaha Widetrack? 80FI-based pull-ease!

    To keep this going... I too would like to see something smaller then the Pro. I am currently looking to upgrade from my VK540 III, but the Pro is too big and $$$. I also have a Phazer MTX for wife. It has a great engine (better cold starting than the 540 with 0-w40 in the MTX). We do a lot of...

    Venture Lite/MP owners?

    How is the MP for pulling heavy loads? I am looking to update my VK 540. I love the low range for pulling but the handling just isn't there. The VK Pro is too much $$$$ for me. If the MP had the same high/low trany as the VK's, I would be sold. Having the handling of my wifes Phazer MTX and...
