Thanks for the video.

Thanks Jack, good to know.

Sorry, I haven't done the job before. That video was a nice find. How did you diagnose your one way bearing?

Thanks Maim.

Thank you. I did get it loosened up and I thought that was my next move.

Happy New Year all, sounds like many of us are enjoying better sledding this year than we have seen in a while ... nice! We have had absolutely polar temps and four times normal snow. The VK breaks the trail and the others follow. So it is possible my reluctant shifter is icing up. This is not...

You are a little spare on details, makes it hard to be of much help. ie. what sled, what year, sled history, mileage, ... anything

Just because you can doesn't mean you should.

Maybe a bit obvious but soak the hell out of it with WD40 or something else along those lines.

Yes Mr.Sled, I've seen the videos .... and been humbled. LOL

Have you checked the tech bulletin as per suggestion in post 9. Or post a picture of the parts and I'll see what I can figure out from my sled which should have them installed.

You might find this helpful, just my solution for keeping the front end/steering tight. I warm up a metal oil can containing 80w90 and drizzle it into/onto the joints/balls and mine is nearly as tight as when new. This is after 20,300 km.

I would say that it was Yamaha's opinion that it would apply to all models of Phazer given that they put them on VLs and MPs in subsequent years. You'll know if you have a problem in the conditions that you encounter.

Good one Sherlock, it baffled me but I remember now.

Water Wetter makes no mention of raising the boiling point of the coolant in their product description. Anybody know where I can find out by how much?
