2017 Yamaha Sidewinder Turbo 250hp in deep powder.

[@AkatarawaJapan]

Brutal! Was out with a Yamaha 4 recently and began to appreciate their merits. Cheers for the vid.

[@budadi]

I borrowed a 250hp sidewinder yesterday, and we had ALOT of deep powder, didnt know a snowmobile could be that fun lol, now I want one.

[@mariusmoilanen2843]

So good video dude!

[@cobaltlukather9045]

this looks less like driving and more like riding a jet ski on a lake made of baby powder

[@alancall5113]

You need that extra power and thing weighs a ton looks like fun power addiction I'll never be able to go back to a 2-stroke again

[@kraigbutcher4864]

Whats your favorite turbo sled. Man those things look so damn fun

[@rompgod9341]

How good are these 2017 sidewinders I’m looking at getting one that’s a 2017 or should I look to get a newer year one?

[@ИгорьК-п5ь]

Лютый апарат,💪💪💪🔥 только у меня вайпер хтх, атмо, нужно кит прикрутить или сайдвиндер покупать

[@MrSnake]

Seriously? How many sleds do you have?? Are you ever gonna be able to try the lynx boondocker?

[@TasSunvang]

I only have two now, this 2017 Sidewinder and the 2018 Arctic Cat Hardcore

[@TasSunvang]

I havent tested the Lynx Voondocker yet, but I have ridden the Summit 850, and couldnt really get comfortable on it, so no plans on buying one yet.

[@MinnowMan]

What kind of belt do you use? And hows your belt life? This is how I ride mine but man did I have bad luck last year with 8 jp and several trips to the dealer to try and figure out what's wrong why I blow so many belts

[@irodfishingcanada1326]

It’s your clutch alignment.

[@adambridger2830]

What else is modified on this machine?

[@kimolsson7563]

Did you get rid of the hardcore or do you have two sleds?

[@TasSunvang]

Still got the Hardcore also.

[@tipptapp1]

More videos please! :)

Hello, I have 2018 stock sidewinder 137 xtx. I get stuck easily in deep powder. Your sled just powers through it. What changes should I make so that my sled would be similar to yours?

[@TasSunvang]

Well, first of all this is a 153" and not a 137". And, i changed my track from 2.25" lugs to 2.6" lugs. And i have 250hp so the track will spin faster in the powder. I know this is not what you want to hear, but if your main area of eiding is deep powder, you bought the wrong sled. For you to change the track, length of rails, tunnel and flashing the ecu and tuning the ecu, it would cost ypu more then just sell your sled, and buy a 153" btx or 153" mtx.

[@kasper2354]

That makes sense. Actually I didnt buy the sed. I won it as a top fundraising prize. I fundraised over 20 grand for a non profit organization. I do a mix of trail riding and deep powder. I just wish this was a bit better in deep powder. I cant even wheelie it. For a sled like mine, what's the best way to get it to wheelie? That will help keep the front end up in the powder

[@kasper2354]

Oh, and awesome video by the way. How did you tune your sled to 250 hp. Thanks

[@TasSunvang]

Well, start by changing the track to a Challenger extreme 51mm track, lower your gearing, and get your ecu flashed to 250-280hp. That should help alot.

[@Janzkak]

What you like versus Cat?

[@TasSunvang]

More power! But less predictable and heavier to control in the tight areas.

[@Janzkak]

For sure. In my opinion it is very easy to ride in tight areas versus Viper with 36 front. Check my channel too, I have 260hp Sidewinder 2018.

[@thom_levesque5541]

Janzkak i m the fan

[@thom_levesque5541]

Your sidewinder mtx 2019 is very sickk

[@remminytro]

Mtx or btx?

[@TasSunvang]

Btx

[@reesewilliamson3346]

@@TasSunvang forgive me for being a cat guy, but what's the difference?

[@lucasfromdavalley]

@@reesewilliamson3346 mtx has a longer track with more pitch and larger lugs, btx is a backcountry for playing around in holes and deep snow but can be ridden on trail much more easily than the mtx

[@remminytro]

Do you have original track? 57mm.?

[@TasSunvang]

Hi! No, changed it from 57mm to 66mm

[@sc4nia]

Er det orginale beltet på 57mm dårligare?

[@anssiberg1191]

nice ride,,wow,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,@

[@brennonl9687]

Is that a 162" track?

[@TasSunvang]

153"

[@hongkong5758]

Do you come from setesdal?

[@hongkong5758]

Or is it Telemark

[@TasSunvang]

No but Setesdal is nor far from here.
