Ruckus you hit the nail on the head.When riding the Phazer it is so well balanced front to back and feels so small a guy feels as though you can make the sled do anything you want.No other sled feels like that.Its what I love about mine.But then the High c.g. takes over.Its only in certain situations.The slow steep ditch,flat corners etc.Very frustrating.Getting it lower and wider will definitly help tons but its critical the suspension and that light feel arent lost in process.Tricky stuff.

Hi, I'm Porkchop and I'm "overweight". ok, define overweight- if your 175# (your a kids size then)

Seriously, yes I'm "overweight" @ 6' 270# but I have no problems controlling the sled. Throw it into a corner, lean and take it.
Rough stuff I don't even stand up, just keep my azz parked on the seat and hit the tops of the bumps- Works good for me, fat people can ride!!!!

600 miles of great fun on it so far, will be over a 1K easily.
It's been said on here a few times: "either you love it or you hate it"............ to each their own

Well If you read it correctly my point is that youll lose weight riding because its hard work.

Huh, I haven't yet.....

BTW, how much did you lose + after how many miles?

If you pull the limiter strap all the way up, use slim jim 6" dooley carbides and move the spacers on the ski's to the inside to increase ski stance this sled will handle like it is on rails-gauranteed

Tmac you can have just as much if not more fun on your Phazer than anything out there.No sled is perfect for everyone.

I agree, and it's got the potential to be just what I am looking for. I will admit to not being thrilled about the reverse issue and the hyfax situation. As long as I can get these issues sorted out, I will be a happy guy.

That's a pretty big statement!

A lot of guys on here have them figured out what the first 3 or 4 adjustments can do, and that'll give you a decent sled, keep tuning, and she'll keep getting better. Mine was pretty good at times, but i couldn't keep up with the parts wear and the slop thing. If i had done these tips, or tricks from the beginning, it would've saved my sled, but as it was, the A-Arm bolts wore through the bushings and egged out the frame, (from what i could tell) causing the A-Arm to move back and forth, then i finally figured out my ski alignment problems were from the spindles wearing egg shape too where the tie rod bolts to it. Everything tight and full of grease, i had i believe well over and inch of slop on the ski tips. It just seemed never ending, and it was year 4 for it anyway, so it was time to go. Never left me walk, and i loved the motor!
