Aye Carumba!

Love what I have seen so far with my butt tests of this bike, but YOU KNOW there will be issues with so much new stuff...it is inevitable with any new heavily engineered, heavily re-designed vehicle...

Yamaha tried to engineer a bunch of weight out of their new snowmobiles back in 2006...took out grease zerks, used thinner metal in the skid (suspension system that track wraps around). What happened? Bushings where zerks were removed needing replacing every year; arms in the aforementioned suspension were cracking and breaking after a couple of years. Guess what newer models had? Yep, zerks back into the equation and heavier metal in the suspension components.
