I have a 2002 Viper with the stock track and 144 megabites 1.075. Wont hook up! Do I go with a Predator or Hacksaw 121 predrilled in center or 136 with a Predator predrilled in center? I do ride some off trail but mostly on. I was thinking the 136 would offer mo traction with it having a longer footprint. What do you guys think? Thanks ;)!

Forgot to mention Heelclicker, aftermarket transfer rods and 144s are center and outside. Numerous attempts to adjust for better hook up but it is the stock Yoko.

track

I would go with a 136. After riding my new to me RX1 Warrior last year on trails I am long tracking my Big Bore SRX. Besides the better hook up the ride over the trail is a hell of alot better than the 121. Especially in the stutter and medium bumps. As far as steering goes you won't even notice the difference. Once you go with a long track you won't go with a 121 again. I am putting the 136 Hacksaw on the SRX. Also I am going to slip a 136 EXpert X in there too. Can't wait. If you decide to go with a 136 PM me I have a extra OEM Viper extension with heat exchanger installed already.
 
I love my 144" on my viper. It smooths out the trails very nicely and and is a must have off trail. So my 2cents would be to go with the 136" with picks in it.
 
I am leaning more too the 136. I have the rear heat exchanger instead of the OEM coolant pipe already installed on the sled now. Will this exchanger work with the TracksUsa extension? I left a email with Richmotorsports to see if his Hartman kit will accept the exchanger as well but havent heard from him. Which kit sould I use. I did a search but came to the conclusion that TracksUsa is the way to go with the rails but not much info on the tunnel extension?? What do you guys think? Also for a 1 inch the Predator looks like the best setup on the predrilled correct me if there is a better 1 inch. Thanks
 
extension

Track USA doesn't make tunnel extensions for Yamaha anymore. I do not believe the Hartman are built to accept the exchanger. But you might be able to modify something up to make the exchanger work.
 
Tracks Usa has the viper,srx,sxr 121-136 in their application list. Says 144 on cloesout?? I will have to call them to see if they do and what kind of deal they have?
 
I have acutally been emailing Tracks USA becuase I want to order the 136 track extension with a predator track. He gave me pricing and never mentioned the tunnel extension. His email stated the only thing we offer for the Viper is the rail extensions. I might be calling SLP or MP to see if I can purchase only the tunnel extension.
 
extension

That is an old listing from Track USA. I had called last winter and they told me they no longer have tunnel extensions for Yamaha. Only rail extensions. They are real decent rail extensions also. Fit real nice.
 
Called today and the extension for the tunnel is still available. Problem is the predrilled 136 Predator is not, discontinued. Now with this I am going to stay 121 and go with a predrilled Hacksaw. Camo is not going to make the Predator anymore according to Tracks Usa. Said they seen major gains in the Hacksaw and Ripsaw design compared to the Predator and others. Thanks for the input guys. ;)!
