Toyman Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 . Hey Andrew check out the STX-DX 146 sled it's quite the sled with the aux gas tank in the trunk !!!!! Awesome I'm thinking about it really hard !!!! Might pull the trigger on it cheers. Thanks for pointing this sled out! I have been considering a 14 or 15 Viper but had not studied the 16's. That aux tank is exactly what I am looking for! Now to sell my 05 RX1 and 07 Attak so I can get serious about ordering new for the first time. Am I hooked on sledding? Oh Ya...maha!

Viperules700 Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Yammie makes great engines! That is why people keep buying thier sleds! Enough said! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vectordevil Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Imagine being able to go over 300km and not stop for gas !!!! It's the procross chassis basically the panterra without the 2 up seat !!! Super trax rated it the most plush ride has a ripsaw 2 track heated seat and automatic feed fr the rear aux 4 gallon tank !!!! Plus the regular tank this thing is awesome !!! Big miles big trail cruiser !!! And with the Yamaha 1049cc four stroke how can you go wrong !!!!!! So you can have almost 15 gallons of fuel !!!! Could ride all weekend and not fuel up !!!!! Lol ..... I am really thinking about pulling the trigger on this 2016 sled !!!!! It's got enough of a suitcase on the back to store anything !!!!!

Irv Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Yeah think so couple trips on the doo near shook my shoulders off want power steering Surprised to hear that Blue? I know you switched brands due to some issues you said you had with your previous Apex, but I never thought you'd be switching back so soon after purchasing your Doo. What exactly don't you like about your Doo? I have been considering a 1200 Doo with R-Motion, but with the lack of miles I have put on this year, that isn't likely going to happen any time soon but I am curious just the same. I have only briefly looked at the new Yamaha's and from that, I will say I was disappointed but judging by this thread, maybe I should be giving them another look?

blue er Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Fast enough cornered great and the r motion cant be beat but the feedback through the bars and twitching front end coupled with the seating position made it a hard sled to ride a 100 k for me .

Maybe xrs shocks set to wanna be racer Those are set-up issues. I ran 2 new Rmotion 800s back to back for a day. One was an MXZ and the other a Renegade. Both darted and twitched at first but once I adjusted the suspension they settled right down. And the Rmotion is a huge leap ahead from my 2012 Renegade. I was very impressed.

It a great sled just not for me played with set up couldnt get it where i felt comfortable doing all day rides on it. Thankfully kept the apex as a back up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue er Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Well was hanging out at the dealer today swapping fishing lies. And a spring check apex le is 15k to bad only on red white. Base apex in blue a little less but want those fox floats. Of course always the option of turbo viper but 17k+ for marginal hp increase rather get cat 9000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
