07 Bang or Bust?

[YammiMoose]

So what did you think?

My wife will be happy to hear I'm keeping the GT. LOL

The Phazer is a nice step up from the SnoScoot for my son. I am glad to see them add a good entry level sled and they didn't waste time with something like a Kiddi Cat or one of those other small 120 cc sleds.

I was hoping to see a single exhaust at 88DB.

Must be cool to see all them lined up in the Snow. They will defiantly turn some heads next year.

They needed a smaller and less expensive sled in their line up...I thought you would see a 2 up Venture with the 150 hp motor though. Real no brainer. Next year a 100 hp model and a 170 hp model

ok...if everyone can stay off the yamaha site for 15 minutes I might be able to check them all out in detail


Lord, give me bandwidth...amen!

that pooch dont have enough power to jump anything, it will bog on the launchramp!!

80hp??? that's enough...better power to weight then a Nytro .

I am a little disappointed to say the least......this new phazer would be cool for your back yard maybe......but cmon it weighs exactly the same as a REV 800 HO......467......with only 80hp?.....why?

Was the 06 RTX considered a rough trail sled? Why did they switch to the proaction suspension? Is it better than the mono? I also noticed that the 07 RTX has a taller and longer dimension and a narrower ski stance compared to the 06. Also weighs 3 lbs more.

Not a fan of the yellow. are those items cosmetically easily replaceable? The all black seat looks much better?

80 hp was fine in 1978, but its 2006. the nytro has double the power, and only weighs what, 50 more lbs??? c'mon, the thing only does 80mph on bare ice!!!

You are definitely a pessimist, sir! You want speed, get a turbo or the Apex for crying out loud...What you want is probably already in the works...An RTX in the same type of body...

RX-E

 

[gumper800]

exactly, i got a apex, but what were they thinkin?? nice name calling

 

[RX-Eskimo]

Oops, forgot why I responded, a Nytro is only 120, which is a third more power...

 

[RX-Eskimo]

Maybe that is why 2007 is supposed to be great year?!?

An apex in that light body.

RX-E

Like the 06 RTX and GT better for looks vs the 07s. The APex ER looks great. Not sure about the Phazer. Im sure its a blast to ride but wow is it ever stubby up front...BBY

Math wasn't your best subject was it??

 

[RX-Eskimo]

That is what I thought too! Where is the nose?!? Space for a turbo!
