Apex production done???

[TurboT]

This is no joke!!! Very reliable sources from Yamaha have told me 2010 will be the last year for the Apex; thus explaining the reason why no major changes have taken place for the sled and the majority of Yamaha's money and effort has been placed toward the Nytro. The "phazing out" has been on the board for 2 years now is what i've been told. No new sled to replace the Apex either. At least not in the plans for 2011 unless someone knows something I'm not aware of! I hope this isn't totally true Anyone hear of this already

1350 triple in a new chassis to the replace apex

They are not selling the Apex mtn in Canada in 2010.

the new sled was supposed to be out this year but was held back do to,to much 09 stock & the bad economic situation.so the new sled is already waiting.:beer;:beer;

All i can say is they better make a lighter sled with the same 150 hp power or yamaha sales will drop off. A apex style sled with 170hp with a weight of around 480lbs would rock!!

i agree, just hard to understand sometimes when its so easy...525 lbs, 200 hp, 1400cc. with a 174 track...done sign me up right now... Hell I can get over 200 easy on most bike motors with a bore/stroke change and a few mods.

Would be nice if they put the apex motor in a Nytro...

 

[4bangrboost]

i doubt they will discontinue the apex. if they do it will probably be like the RX-1 to apex change. same chassis but a few big changes that comes with a new name

 

[HighMark Adventures]

Apex engine in a nytro style chassis.

 

[HYFLYR]

Who cares about the apex just give us something new with less weight and more power.

 

[wheresthesnow]

Of course they will drop it or replace it, if they don't ever update it or anything it rots and nobody wants it.

This from a very reliable source. All new 4cyl in a Nytro style sled. 180hp naturally aspirated, direct drive clutch. Supposedly on High Marking sob.
Did not release cause of the economy.
