Pete my only regret watching your videos is I don’t own any shares in Ultimax. What a great spokesperson you have become!
Are the ultimate belts actually tougher than OEM?
Absolutely they are. I have been running one on my tuned Yamaha for years. @@bunsdad4530
Or Molson. Beer break!
DO NOT I Repeat DO NOT under any circumstances and I cannot emphasize this enough NEVER EVER……EVER…..even think think about leaving the trail with this sled. 😂. Now back to praying for snow. All the best in 2024
I live in Vermont and looking at green grass...Mother nature hates snowmobiling in recent years.Keep up the good work.That's what she said...Cheers!!!
Grate jod on that Jack shift like what you do for us guys ! with good humor and beer
haha thanks! 🍻
New subscriber here all the way from the great State of Maine. The misses & I have a pair of 2017 Vipers and have been Yami fans since the mid 90's V-max. I've learned a ton of maintenance techniques (tips & tricks) from the great guys over on the Totally Yamaha forum website but having your videos as a reference and step by step are priceless. My only issue now is my Maine accent is turning full blown "Letter-kenney" and my American lagers are turning to cold Molsen's & Labatt's. Great work Pete & gang, Cheers to a happy 2024
Billy from the pine tree state of Maine
haha that's awesome!! cheers to ya out in Maine 🍻
I m a licensed mechanic since the early 90's ( automotive)
I work on all my toys.
Your vids are not just entertaining but filled with common sense ways to work on toys and vehicles.
Keep it up mr....i learn a little bit from each video even into my mid 50's 😁
that's awesome! thank you and cheers 🍻
Nice video Pete, lots to remove on the newer Yamahas. Dig the new hat, now we can easily see your logo. Well done bud!
haha thanks! figured it was time.e to switch it out for a clean one! 🤣🍻
Your videos are very helpful. Definitely appreciate them.
Keep them coming Pete! Great Job.
Nice work Pete. Love learning from you 😊
Good stuff as always! Thanks for sharing!
Wow that sled is a Beast. Not going to toss that back sled in the back of pickup like we once did with the 340's in the 80's.. Awesome watching you and Christina working together. Thanks for all the information, nothing is too easy on these new sleds. No snow down here in North Dakota but brewski's do be Cold. Cheers
Another great video Pete. Keep up the great work buddy. RNDH 4 LIFE..
Awesome video and a good call on that drive bearing inspection
Right on brother! Happy New Year's!
Happy new year! 🍻
I can't believe the weather this year in Ontario Went for a Christmas ride and we were flinging mud instead of snow The lakes even the Bay doesn't have a bit of ice yet Usually we're fishing already. Come on Pete do the snow dance.
lol I'm dancing! 🤣🍻
Awesome video. Cheers 🍻
Great video Pete!!!! Love the new back wheels on YOMAMA!!! Nice One!!!!!
Boy Pete you sure have some lucky friends, nice video and great job on the intro Christine👍
that sled huge❤ That thing's gonna ride like a school bus.👍🏽
Great video Pete! almost 15,000 miles.. unreal!to bad Yamaha is ending a tradition of quality sleds.😊
Another great vid, as always. Great fake out on the start .. well done haha MAN, Id love to get my sled over to your place. The quality of your work is astounding.
About time another video . Just subscribed to your channel a few weeks ago and been liking an watching all of your videos . I’m from Ottawa have to hit you up some time for a sled rip
If you do an Apex oil change video, install a filter relocation kit. It makes oil changes reasonable, as does pumping the tank dry first. Keep 'em coming!
thanks! cheers 🍻
Your knowledge is mind blowing Pete. I have learned so much in the past year since joining your channel.....awesome!!
that's awesome!! thank you, I really appreciate it 🍻
Great video Pete and Kristina,I’m sure Ultimax stock has gone up since you’ve been become their spokesperson!👍Keep her danglin’ buddy!🍻
haha thank you! yeah maybe they'll put me on the payroll eh! 🤣🍻
Yes! Been waiting for a new one lol
Ultimax does make a decent belt I haven't always used them but the ones I have used have held up just fine.
Muffalator. Sounds like you’ve been watching VGG lol great vid man! Let’s see some vintage stuff!
haha well in my defense a guy has been calling it a muffalator long before he saw vise grip garage 🤣 but I do like his channel! he is a funny Feller 🍻
Thank you!
Oh my god that was awesome catch me off guard pete with the girl friend with the opener lol.
Got a new Olde 18 LTX DX turned up to TD 290, 18 piss em pounds and runs like a wet dream. D RON will be just fine, right mods and fresh fluid she'll be tight. Good on the boys cause Lake Simcoe is a wave pool so far this new year . Cheers to RNDY, always a pleasure
Great video. I just bought a 17 sidewinder mtx.
Great one Pete, keep er coming bud.
Greeting coming from Southern NB, no white stuff here either, just rain then freeze and thaw and repeat. Not looking like a good winter
Awesome video Pete and Christine! I think you should shine up D Ron's seat when he's not lookin! Lmao. Slip sliding away!
🤣🍻
You got a pretty cool press for the drive bearing replacement on the rotor side.
yeah it works mint! 🍻
Hey Pete, great video. I currently have a rx1 but was thinking of upgrading to a apex, however noticed the prices for the used sidewinders are not that bad now.
Love your shit bud. Keeper goin
Awesome thanks
Happy New Year.
You can take an allen key to the adjuster on the vise grip. And crank them tighter.
Here in Finland -28°c and 30cm snow
Good video. Thanks
Another great video , wish you were my neighbour !
Pete id use copper never seize on those exhaust bolts
-37c and over a meter snow in north of sweden 🤙
That thing's a monster
The way you talk to Christina..wondering when you're gonna teach someone else how to work on these snowmobubbles lol 🍻
DAMN PETE...things were really lookin up for a few seconds there...
Then this hairy guy jumped back into the picture😂
Cheers n beers from n wisco👋👋👋
That's a good tip on the rotation of the clutch man that could be a disaster
Mont Valins is awesome!
I think it was kind of a well kept secret up until this season! 🤣 everyone and their brother is up there right now 🍻
Good job
thank you! 🍻
Up here in Alaska, we have a shit ton of snow! I have 4ft in my dooryard wasilla Alaska. You Canooks should come up here, Ahh! Love your show. It's a good thing your lovely wife puts up with you ! Lol. P.S send me some Tim Hortons coffee please.
Hey Good Looking intro hostess , Nice Job Christina
No snow in MN !! Lakes here in southern MN was fully open 2 days ago!
Those rattly 998 clutches sheesh. Nice one!
Pete you want your buddy to be safe beer o’clock later 😊
Got a name for d Ron's sled. TRIPLE H " heavy hunny hauler"
That’s a thunder products belt adjuster. There should be an Allen bolt in the tool kit to open the secondary
nice one!!
Worked at Gates Rubber I made snow vs they were great belts
It's just like a Pantera only a turbo. Nice
We like
No snow in Wisconsin ether some up by the lake effect snows .
Love the videos. Will wait till you start dealing the belts and will replace them and my sleds then. Quick question , how big of a lug track can I put on a thundercat? Or sidewinder or viper in a 137? Can I go 2.5 lug? Or 1.6? Maybe 1.75? How much room without any rubbing?
Tire shine works mint
Used to be cheap years ago lol
No snow in central BC either, had 2 feet of it at the cabin.
Muffalator!! Someone has been watching some Vice Grip Garage 😂
Way to go the extra mile
Your channle is awesome
Happy new year Bud I love watching your videos I wish that you were closer to me and I would bring the beer I need a motor for my wife's 366 cat 4 Wheeler if you find one let me know and I will bring it to you
Great vid as usual, get that gear ratio from 1.95 down to 1.73 and then you’ll have some good speed…
thanks! cheers 🍻
thats essentially a pantera with a 998 engine. The pantera utilizes a different tunnel config than the regular procross, it's one reason the running boards looks so different. Additionally with that second tank is the first one it drains from.
but yeah with that seat its the catillac on the snow.
Don't feel bad about snow there's non in wisconsin or UP either.. When I say none I mean NONE! A week ago the grass was getting greener!
no snow in michigan, but i think that is due to change soon!!
Yes, I have a 12 pack bet with my brother on it.
Love sc1 but have had it take decals off.
Hey Pete, question what’s the name of that guy you sent your F7 too for upgrades? I’m looking for someone to get some upgraded parts from that knows what there doing! Love your videos bro cheers!!!!
Goodness - if he gets that sausage stuck.... gonna need a CAT D9 to get it out.
lmao 🤣🍻
I bet you a case of molson that you cannot get my 94 jag 440 dlx running. Here in ontario 🍻
haha only if we open the case first and think about it for a few! 🤣🍻
That intro was awesome! That is a nice sled. So what’s happening with your f7 ? Did you ever get that bad boy back?
Pete, D-Ron owe's you a 5th of Fireball eh.
Hey Pete. Just curious on a price for an Ultimax belt for a 2023 thundercat?. Or where is there a place that sells them?. 🎉And also what brand of radar gun do you use for the sled radar runs? Or what brand would you suggest for a radar gun ?. Keep the videos coming. Love them.
good day! I'm still working on getting setup to sell the belts but I'll be ready to go soon! you can go to www.Ultimaxbelts.com to find the belt number and a dealer close to ya if ya need one right away though. for the radar gun, we've been using a Bushnell gun but a buddy of ours has one that's better quality...I can't remember the name of it though lol. we also use a dragy GPS for accurate quarter mile speeds and times and nobody has to hold the gun for ya! cheers 🍻
Need some advice pete. '07 z1 4 stroke bought it may '23 (last year) started for him but not for me when i got it home. After oil change (dry sump) is the first startup dry for first couple revolutions of engine as lines and pump fill up? There was a clump of dirt that came out of each the sump and resevoir. Turns out one airbox boot wasnt on throttle body. Plugs were sooty and one was finished. Put new plugs in and properly installed airbox onto throttle body. Decided to flush what i could so i put 3 litres of very expensive 0w40 in resevoir and a week later (time constraints) drained both resevoir and sump. No new oil in sump at all hence my dry start question. Also do you think i should pull pump ofv and inspect lines for dirt accumulation or clogs. It was ran sucking dirt until it fucked the plugs up enough not to start. Oil filter sits horizontally so prefilling not really going to work. I havent rode it yet. Its for my son who is up near Timmins and i dont want to see that fucking cat breakdown in the bush 20 miles from town in minus 25 weather. 5000k on it inpaid $2g. Too good to be true as fucking usual. Ive got that '07 z1, a '13 Polaris assault 800 155 and a '99 zL 600. Nothing like pre '04 sleds to work on, nice and easy. Lemme know what ya think thanks
Hey Pete I’m a huge fan buddy an my pops has a 2001 yamama vmax 500 deluxe an it’s all been re done cuz it blew up on the ice after jus buying it point being it got a brand new lower unit on the Motor? Lol I don’t know anything about them not much lol thr pistons blew so idk but it’s not runnin on both cylinders I think it’s boggy still an they said they did 1800$ worth of work to it
🍻
Pete the Sidewinder Sausage Whisperer 😂
Would the exhaust manifold and pipe set up from the 700 viper work for you? The 700 srx and viper power valve engines must be similar?
it might work..🤔🍻
A sled with 23k from alberta would be absolutely beat. You guys must baby them on the trails to get so many miles
One day Pete, maybe we can meet up and go riding
Love when the gf says tickety boo it's hilarious
What do u got for a ultimax for a 02 800 renegade zx chassis?????I'd order1...must b cheaper the the 155$ dealer belts.
20:02 FOR ANYONE WHO DOESN'T KNOW THAT ALLEN KEY HOLE IN THE KNOB OF THE VICE GRIPS IS TO TIGHTEN THE CLAMP MORE AFTER CKAMPING, OR YOU CAN TURN THE KNOB WITH PLIERS AFTER YOU CLAMP IT.,
Same here in New brunswick..... zip notta. Snd fuck it sucks.
Yamaha station wagon. lol
Just missing the side passenger
windows
Metric vice grips save the day
Crossover episode LOL Vise grip garage
haha now you're talkin!! 🤣🍻
Did you add chaincase lube? Didn't show it in video.
He did, the black plastic jug-O-gear lube
I changed the oil and checked the chain case in my 18 winder stxdx (same one in video), now it only goes in reverse. Anyone have suggestions?
Thanks
Forgot to say, love the videos man
In Quebec you need a OEM muffler
What's your engine oil recommendation for a new Ski-Doo 900 Ace? The OEM XPS, AmSoil? I see you're flying the Amsoil flag, but I'm guessing either/or is fine. Eh?
yeah there are a ton of good quality oils these days! I mean for any kind of warranty issues maybe stick with the OE oils but after the warranty is up use what ya like. I stick to the yamalube for my sleds 🍻
