Yamaha to stop producing snowmobiles after 2025 season

Krown is a wonderful product. What sucks is the applicators. I still have my 99 GMC that has been rustproofed with Krown every year since new. Original Krown owner sold out and haven’t found a decent location to do a Krown job since. I am thoroughly disappointed in the retailers’ quality control.

Guy in Elmira Ontario is great. No issues with his work. He’s busy for a reason 😎

Yamaha sidewinders….

 

No, for me its just the SRX versions. They stand out from the crowd.

They are both real nice looking sleds. 
Do they both not come in the blue/white colour scheme?

How about the new colour scheme that is black/gold, both models have that?


Looking them up I see SRX Sidewinder noted as a model - not well rehearsed on Yamaha, so what’s the deal.

SRXs only look delicious when blue/white combo. All black, red and white, and black and gold 🤮🤮🤮

SRXs should only be blue/white.   Anything else is just wrong.

Spoken like true late 90's, early 2000's fans.

The SRX has been around for a loooooong time, and not in blue and white. I would imagine people from the 70's and 80's dont like the blue and white. so, you have that. LOL! Ski

Yep, Black and Gold is #1 followed by Red/White then Blue/white. IMO.

My buddy has a 21 (?) red and white SRX and it pains me to say it looks awesome.   The all black one was pretty boring.  I know the black/gold is the retro look, I just don’t like it as much as the blue.

Really sad Yamaha was leader in 80’s before Polaris took over in 90’s then skidoo in 2000’s. 
phazers, exciters we’re every where. Oh those vmax’s were pretty cool too. 

Yamaha was only manufacturer that could make a reliable tripple cylinder two stroke too. 

 

 

I'm gunna place the start to their hayday a bit further back.

Mid/late 70's with the Enticers and the Exciters were a big deal as well.

That was also the start for Yamalube at that time. (big sales point I'd say!)

I remember drooling over the SS440 when that came out! It looked sharp in silver / blue (1982 or there aboots)

 

Was skeptic aboot the telescopic struts up front that came out aboot then.
