Yeah they do I have three I got 2 sx max 700 and a srx the srx has the bender true triple through and the max s have mbrp I think it’s how you spell it lmfao 🤣 but they sound so incredible let me little sister take one for a rip and just sat and listened to it coming across the field and was like wow music to my ears I will never get rid of them old Yamaha triples
@@Guitarguy0522 Back when there were more of these out in circulation and when stopping trailside for a "beverage" you could always identify the unique harmonious tone of these sleds approaching. Pure musical magic, three cylinders at a time.
Highly recommend you schedule your back surgery now. Wont be long before that old yamaha suspension catches up to you. But boy can they make an amazing engine 😂.
I have a couple 98 vmax xtc 700s and they actually arent that bad at all but have more travel etc than the srx. damn things handle like gokarts on the trails too. love them
I ran a yamaha 600 triple for 2 season's was a great machine quick as hell got 98 out on the lakes but what a fun dependable machine, wish i kept that one.
The family had an XTC from that time frame I remember when they first came out man what a sweet sled, only issue for the was the track had a small lug and I think it wouldn’t hook up well
😊Pull your limiter straps up a hole or close up the gap a little on your transfer rods, will put a bit more weight on the ski's and you will be able to rail around those corners even faster. Bought my 98 700srx brand new, still am able to put 1000miles on each year between my other sleds, and I am still able to walk up right.
loosen the front shock, tighten the limiter strap down and get some 8 inch carbides on the front stud boy shapers work well on the SRX. I thought you were going to smoke that one tree lol. @@MattMcHugh257
I also love how the beginning of this video shows it gapping that new Indy if it had a rip saw track it would have left it standing still I smoke new sleds on mine with ease
I've had 2 SRXs. First one was a 98, bought with 1700 mi for 1600$. I test rode it, was a pooch. I told guy something not right with it(I suspected prob fouled plug), told guy to try out my 97 700 Vmax that I clutched, jetted, triple pipes. He rode the Vmax, said holy crap, this thing is a rocket! I told him the SRX should be a little quicker. I wasn't exactly sure what deal was with the SRX, dirty PVs, fouled plug, PV cable pull thru, why got it cheap. I put a new set of plugs in it, put 3500 more mi on it before sold it. Second was a 2000, got it for 900$. only bad thing was seat was torn bad, and skid was in need of attention. I found a beautiful used seat 50mi away for 75$, and did a Polaris XTRA 10 skid conversion, got a great used FOX shock skid for 125$. Very easy install and so much nicer of a ride. Both long gone now :( Current sled is 2010 AC Z1 Turbo Sno Pro.
The SRX was good for the time but lacked in the suspension department, especially the rear. Those Yamaha engines last a ton of miles, fit and finish was excellent. Nothing beats the sound of a triple triple and they have long legs for lake runs.
Sweet sled that thing hammers. Looks like some good trail conditions! Where are you at? southern/central Maine sucks this winter big time so far lol. Be careful man.
@@MattMcHugh257came over from Minnesota to ride around the south west area of Wisconsin around the same time. Good riding while it lasted, only one so far.
Awesome video. I like videos like this. All the videos of people ripping "pow" is literally the same shit, every day. Those videos get boring, extremely fast. I'd rather follow along on a trail ride and enjoy the scenery. Hope to see more videos like this. 😊
Thanks! Just buy the best one you can afford. That’s the biggest thing. If you go watch my older videos the quality gets better every year as I buy better GoPros. Also, you’ll need a quality edition software and computer to handle the footage appropriately if you’re going to edit the video at all.
Great video I have a 2000 srx they ride a little rough but they smoke new sleds no problem the later year srx has 153 hp because of some differences in the porting put a bigger better track on it with a few studs and it’s a rocket ship 🚀
@@MattMcHugh257Growlers sound way better , tougher sound . Bender had more of a tinny sound and was trail legal , the rip saw track was the best mod I did , hooked up hard - only lost about 5mph top end , but I spend 90% under 100 then over 100mph even today with the new machines - I rather have it yank hard to 100 anyway .
Also ive had many many honda machines always took whatvever abuse i could throw at it never understood why honda never got into sled market i think they put out amazing products.
lol I love this comment 😂. They top out at about 120mph on a lake if you have the room. Typical field cruising speed is 60-80 depending on how quick you want to get somewhere.
Out of all the Polaris, 800 XC Pro, XR, Yamaha Vmax, 600S I have a little Yamaha ovation 340 I’ve had more fun on that than any sled I’ve ever owned😂😂😂😂
