So debating making my RX1 become a Viper for next season. Any years to be wary of?

Casual rider that's just out there for some scenery and time with the boy. Been riding an '05 RX-1 for a few years and got the boy a '09 Phazer for this yr. He loves it! I gotta say, that little Phazer is a blast to ride! I actually prefer it over mine. :) Not one that needs the...

Got his new bumper and skid/float plate on. He wants mirrors so those getting ordered next. Wondering if the a-arm protectors would fit ok with the skid. (he likes red, others wouldn't matter)

Gonna see how this is for him come winter. Neither of us into the whole speed & performance stuff. Just a fun and casual ride to actually see what it is we're riding past is what we enjoy. Likely make my RX1 turn into a Phazer as well.

Been looking for a while now and finally found a nice, low mile, VERY CLEAN Phazer for the boy. Exactly the color scheme he wanted is a plus. PRETTY happy kid yesterday to say the least. Skid/float plate and wider skis and probably a new front bumper coming before the season starts...

Thanx guys! Went for a ride on the RX1 yesterday after new plugs and new belt. Much more zip! (think a plug was fouled) Really like this RX1 but kinda want newer, it' an '05, and the Nytro would also save a little weight and while it would still be 2x what I'd need, it's less oomph than...

Thinking I'll let the RX1 go spend some money and buy two sleds - one for me, one for the boy. Phaser for the boy is pretty much a given. Thinking the same for myself as speed and hp aren't biggies for me at all. still, love the looks and styling of the Nytro. So...is here any particular...

Thanx! It's hi octane with Seafoam - run this in the sled and the bike. Gonna try starting fluid and get it fired up (fingers crossed) then run some new fresh gas with treatment to clean things out and - fingers crossed again - enjoy a good riding season.

First start-up of the season. Fuel was Seafoamed last yr - always is. Did the same as last yr, pulled line under belt cover, blew the air in to prime but this yr...nothing. Fuel is getting to the fuel pump and going out of it I know. Cranked 4 or 5 times for 10 sec or so each time with...

I'd thought a bit about selling it off for something smaller as I just do not need the power this '05 RX1 has. Love the 4-strokes so figured why not keep it for another season.

Sell the RX1 and buy a Nytro

Already have a RX1 as I mentioned turning it into a Nytro.

With prices, thinking '08 or newer.

Yup, that's what I'm after a comparison regarding the feel and handling characteristics between the RX1 and the Nytro. Debating turning my RX1 into a Phazer and then buying a Nytro for myself. Not new but something in the $5-6 range. Anyone with first-hand riding experience with both?

First full winter of riding the RX1 and the boy on back has been loving riding with me. Been wanting to get him on his own and been thinking a Phazer would be good for him. Be 13yo next season so I can restrict the throttle a bit until he's ready for more. Been very patient and responsible...

I thought about adding a radiator to my '05 over the last summer but put it off. Have a rear heat exchanger but these last two days of mid-30's and marginal trail conditions (little loose snow for cooling) have me thinking it'll be added this off season. I'm one that starts to really worry...

Bought a '05 Rx-1 midway through last season and only got 50 or 60 miles in. Tucked it away in the spring and just kept the battery fresh. New oil in the fall and this past weekend tried to start it. Crank, crank, crane, crank but no "vroom". A shot in each carb and it fired but wouldn't...

Sorry, should've been clearer. Meant to be about using the machine not the grip heaters.

The wires for the hand warmers got a bit gnawed so i now there's gonna be a code because of it. Ay harm in still using it until I can get them repaired?
