Hello all My dad got a new 16 MTX 141" 2.25" lug viper. He is having a clunk noise in the right side when you decellerate after going 40+ it sounds like the track is hitting the tunnel? I looked at it and his track is rubbing on the left side of the tunnel. I've attempted to align the track...

Hey all, So I took a trail pass off my windshield, then use goof off to get rid of the white sticker residue which I regret painfully. It smeared all over the windshield. I've researched WD-40 methods, fingernail polish remover using a rubber blade to scrap it off to no avail or at least not...

Hey all, A buddy of mine is looking at a new 16' 141" Viper. He's coming from a Ski-Doo. Aside from what I have read about the chain case leak on the 2016s along with the rubbing of the skid and drivers, is there anything else to be aware of when he goes to look at it? Thanks in advance!

Hey guys, Wondering why this negative cable battery wouldn't be hooked up from factory. Or what this is for exactly.

First time with a brand new machine let alone one with a turbo. Just had to say how I am loving this sled. Coming from a 136" phazer. I've only put on roughly 100 miles so far in moderate to poor conditions. I've read about the overheat issues and thought I may run into that last weekend...

Hey guys, So we just got some snow back here in WI but it will be gone in a blink of an eye judging from the temperatures coming up. We are trying to plan a trip around March 10th - 12th to go somewhere (from what I've researched we will have to go out west) The only trips we have ever taken...

Alright so this has been the biggest pain in the world of the hole procedure so far. Its a 136" track that I'm going to. We got the skid all extended for it. Our first try we got it in the track and lined up the wheels inside fairly easily with the back end jacked up. We attempted to...

So my track change has been going pretty good. I got the rail extensions and hyfax from a nearby dealer. Got the extensions bolted on, started putting the hyfax on and they are short? Im assuming from what I have saw from everyone else's 136" is the hyfax goes the full length. The rail...

Hey guys, Finally got to swapping out my 121" for my 136" track. Everything went smoothly being that it was my first ever track change. The only thing is that when I was putting it back together. I had a washer that I couldn't figure out what it went to. I thought it was for the top sprocket...

Hey guys, Just tore my skid out on my 2007 Phazer GT 121". Quite an experience getting it out. I just had some questions pertaining to the skid, Am I able to just unbolt the front and rear shock on the skid or is it still under load? Reason for asking is because the limiter strap seems...

Hey guys, Last weekend I went riding all day. The night of riding the sled sat outside in colder temps (-10F or so) I warmed her up sunday morning and started moving along and the low oil light came on, so I was making my way to the gas station and then it shut off. So I thought it was...

Hello there everyone I'll be using this thread to record my progress for my 2007 Yamaha Phazer GT 121" convert to 136". Rail extensions are on their way here. While I already purchased a 136" x 14 x 1.5" Camo. I have some questions regarding the conversion before I start tearing it...

Hey guys, I have a slightly bent left spindle. Some questions I have are.. Does it require a specific tool to get the bolts loose on the spindle? I can't get the middle bolt to move at all. Do you think I can use a press to flatten (straighten) the spindle back out? Thanks for any help

Hey Guys, Sleds been sitting in the garage since the last ride about 5 days ago. Went to go warm her up like normal, idled at the normal rpm. Then went to hop on it and noticed the engine light was flashing on the screen. As well with the yellow indicator light. While it was doing...

Hey Guys.. I got a 2007 Phazer GT My first ride out I had to pick up my sled in the back just to move it on to some packed snow. When I got back home I noticed that on my rear bumper when there is a little arm that goes down that attaches to the snow flap mount, that weld broke.. I...
