    Re-Building a Boosted Phazer!

    I say that Yamaha uses quality parts, because I owned a YZ450F and a YFZ450 and I rode the living piss out of those things and I could never get them to break! Of course I always properly maintain them as well.

    Re-Building a Boosted Phazer!

    Re: Bullet proof Well, rods and bearings appear to be in very good shape upon removal. And when I drained the oil in the beginning, it was very black and dark. No signs of water being in the oil, just signs of being burnt to due bad rings and head gasket. Probably will end up changing the...

    Re-Building a Boosted Phazer!

    No sir, taking a risk, same rods and head bolts. Not that i am asking for a broke down machine, but i do want to know the life of oem parts on this motor. I was half tempted to use the original pistons because they really werent in that bad of shape! It was the rings/gaskets/ and valves that...

    Re-Building a Boosted Phazer!

    Mileage was right at 2000 miles (3219km). This motor should be able to go longer than that even with a turbo installed. Bearings on the rods look good, i buffed them a little to mellow out some tiny grooves. Crank looks good and doesnt appear to out of round/balance according to some...

    Any advice on buying 07 mtx

    As long as you don't pay more than 3100 bucks then I would say go for it. Phazer is a fun sled, no whether it be for you or the family, everyone will enjoy it!

    MTX Realistic selling price

    As per Kelly Blue Book: Trade in value = 2565 (in good condition) Retail value = 3750 (excellent condition) Add the two and divide from 2 to get the fair offering point for a buyer. Total = 6315 divided by 2 = 3157.50 Fair offer for someone to give would be 3160 Fair price or you...

    Re-Building a Boosted Phazer!

    Oh yeah, and a good AFR gauge that I'm using is the dm-6 combo from PLX devices. Link: http://www.plxdevices.com/product_info. ... DSMAFR_DM6 Uses a good oxygen sensor from Bosch and has a touch screen gauge. Pretty sleek IMO.

    Re-Building a Boosted Phazer!

    For anyone who owns a 2007 or newer yamaha phazer and has a turbo kit installed on it and wants to know more about what to do in the case of a burnt down motor! So to begin my story. I purchased my phazer from a guy who bought it brand new and had the turbo installed at 0000 miles. Machine...

    The A arms or the subframe?

    My frame has that same separation between the front subframe and bulk head, surely from the only time I rolled it. That was the only thing I ever found to be unorthodox after the roll. Never has really affected the ride in my opinion. And in all honesty, as long as nothing is seriously binding...

    Using my Phazer MTX 2013

    Also, from the thorough documentation of what you've shown us on the front end of your machine, it almost seems a waste to spend that much money on the timbersled kit. Unless its the route you already planned on taking, then go for it! But, if I was you, with the skills and resources available...
