    Has anyone else had there front shocks leak at the clicker reservoir? One of mine is leaking oil. Guess it's time for a rebuild? What needs to be replaced before I have them recharged?

    Aftermarket Radiator Fan

    I'm sick of seeing the overheat caution light on my sled. Seems to come on more and more everytime I ride. Is there an aftermarket fan for the phazer radiator? I thought I saw one somewhere that has the same connector. Just have to fabricate some mounts. I'm ok with the fab work to save $100...

    Starts - Eventually

    Warmth It definitely has something to do with the sled being warm. Or like I said a relay warming up enough by applying current to it by holding the key on for extended periods. Or could it be that I'm in need of a new battery? What type of relays are used? Anyone have a part number? Dealer...

    Broken Link? - Actually the pivot arm cross shaft destroyed

    Yamaha won't help! Yamaha will play the bad economy card and tell you there is nothing they can do. This is definitely a safety issue and needs to be a recall before someone gets hurt - if they already haven't. I'll be jumpin ship next time my phazer breaks. What happened to safety first?

    Starts - Eventually

    Never had trouble starting my phazer last year. This year its a different story. Every time I go to start it after it sits overnight or for the week it takes longer and longer to start turning over. I turn the key to on and let the fuel prime up. Click it to start and nothing not even a click. I...

    My Phazer Burnt to a pile of ashes this weekend

    Any chance you recently had an oil change? Bummer! I'm familiar with the gut wrenching feeling you must have. I almost burned mine to the ground. Per the service manual I removed the weep hole bolt near the exhaust manifold to verify oil pressure after I changed the oil. Well oil got all over...

    Broken Link? - Actually the pivot arm cross shaft destroyed

    Going custom Aaron Excell is going to take care of me - what a great guy at Excell Motorsports! Didn't get any help from yamaha. He's going to weld supports onto my spare pivot arm and beef up my link. Much much much much cheaper than upgrading to the 08 link and arm. He said he hasn't seen one...

    Broken Link? - Actually the pivot arm cross shaft destroyed

    Just talked to yamaha They said a dealer needs to look at it. But they were also quick to site the current economic situation of our country and that I shouldn't expect much out of them. Bummer - switched to yamaha for reliability and because they back their products. Have wrenched on this...

    Options for fixing egged out tunnel hole

    What are my options for fixing a skid mounting hole that has egged out. Suspension destroyed itself last week and the front mounting bolt sheared off and left the hole elongated. I assume this must be fixed since it will just continue to elongate if I don't. See attached pic.

    2007 GT Skid in FX sled

    Just wondering if there is anything different between the GT and FX skid as far as mounting goes. I would like to try and run a GT skid in my FX since I keep breaking the suspension link. Need to know if the tunnel mounting holes are in the same location. If so I think I'm going to bolt on the...
