    Problems, but no regrets, yet

    My experience is it is common for driveshaft bearing and exhaust gaskets is pretty common wear item on the 4strokes around 5000 miles. I've owned several vectors ranging from 2008 to 2013 model years. Great sleds. I added greasing the clutch side bearings to my usual maintenance plan and had...

    SD30 code finally solved

    Same issue my winder had last season before i had put 500 miles on it. If I recall there are 2 oil related sensors on it, dealer did 1 and 100 miles later it had same codes again, took it back in, they did the other and the oil pressure issue was fixed. Now coolant leaks, that's another story lol

    Torn track lugs

    My personal opinion is don't waste the time or money, I don't think an epoxy will hold considering the abuse a track takes.

    New clucth up-date kit for Side Winder

    Im by no means a clutching guru, maybe someone else would know, but just out of curiosity, I'm running a tp kit with the 33/35 reverse angle helix and orange springs, would there be an advantage going to the 35/39 helix and taking some tip weight out of the hh's?
