Hi Guys,
I just purchased a 98 SRX from my uncle who never used it much, I think he may have been the original owner or bought with very few miles. It currently has 2k on it. Anyway, runs really strong and FAST, but when not on the throttle some what hard or traveling at 50+ there seems to be a noticeable vibration in the feet like something is rubbing or a bearing is bad. I am not a mechanic nor have I really owned a snowmobile before, just rode friends/family machines, so excuse my ignorance.
I have read that these had a crank issue, is there a way to check from the outside to see if it was fixed and if not, how can I check to see if that's the issue? Is Yamaha still fixing these under some sort of recall or is that expired?
Any other advice or heads up on this sled would be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Dan
