    Custom Gas tank

    I have an idea to weld a custom gas tank for my Mountian Cat. To save weight and to add strength I would incoperate the frame from steering post to tunnel into the gas tank as I would get higher volume and double tank as structural. What is a con to this and has anyone ever tried this?

    Problem with tie rods on 2016 M8000

    Hey there everyone! I just picked a 2016 M8000 limited about 2 days ago from craigslist. I was checking it over when I got it home and saw that the tie rods were rubbing on the left A-Arm (if you're looking at it from the front). I looked at the right side and saw the right tie rod is a bit bent...

    Just bought a new 2016 Pro RMK Axys 800 a few days ago and haven't even taken it for its first ride yet. Loaded onto the sled deck and unloaded into the garage. Checking it out in the garage last night, I noticed the steering column had a solid 1/8 inch of play in it when pulling straight up on...

    Suspention, electrical and steering issues

    Before I get into tearing my 2007 rmk 600 apart... 1st: Can I rebuild my rear and front shocks or should I just replace them? 2nd: My speedo gauge flickers, sometimes doesn't stay on and my reverse light is staying on even when not engaged. 3rd: my steering has way too much play in it, is there...

    Limiter Strap So much Ski pressure

    Hello, Has anyone tried letting out the limiter strap one or more holes to lighten up the steering and handling. These things have so much ski pressure on hard snow. If so how did it affect other things. Did the seat height go up? Does it get to light in the front end to steer it on a trail...

I was riding my 97 RMK and was struggling...

    2007 Apex MTX

    Bought a new 2007 Apex from the dealer and took it out finally. It's bare stock, exactly as it comes from Yamaha, and it seems good but I noticed a couple of things. I've been riding a 1997 Exciter, and obviously the way you ride is very different, but I'm concerned about two things. First, I...
