Hit a solid sand pile at 85 kmph, flipped end over end. Busted side panel and bent connecting bracket, bent handlebars and totalled windshield/bracket. Anyone else have any tales of destruction??

LAst weekend I was riding on some crusty ungroomed trails when one ski went through the crust and flipped me end for end. Luckily for me, the windshield popped of, no damage to it, but the windshield mount basically collapsed to one side. I bought a new 12v GPS plug and it snapped right in half flush with the top of the tank. That was all it did. When I flipped I went into the ditch where there was fairly deep snow. This is what saved the machine.
Man you guys are lucky.I have just rolled mine on its side once at slow speed and nothing wrong at all except I couldnt right it by myself.Have owned other makes that even a sideroll costs $.I think the Phazers are tough sleds.

Two guys. Two Phazers. Sled #1 mileage 140. Bumped into a stump - side impact. Damage so far = $700. Sled #2 mileage 200. Landed on its side and cartwheeled a "few" times. Damage so far = totaled. This was a very short season.

170 miles i was doing about 50 to jump a drift, let off throttle, engine brake made it dive, nailed the throttle and hit crusty snow with a foot of powder underneath, skis turned uncontrolably and i stalled my chest on the gauge and my feet over my head, right when the sled was about to stop i pushed up and landed on my feet, bent the gauge and it hurt to breathe for a few days but all is well

we went riding and made it 2.5 miles from home when my buddy on his 2007 phazer that's one week old and has 400 miles destroyed it. the bolt that goes into the large aluminum chunk on the ski broke riding 45m.p.h on a smooth trail right along the highway. since the bolt broke it caused the large aluminum chunk that the ski is mounted by to break in half. the ski went flying out from the sled and the A arms dug into the snow causing him to roll 2-3 times. the blue piece on the top of the bellypans is broke the bellypans poped out the handlebars, brake setup. headlight switches and steering columb are toast A arms and tie rods may be bent, tie rod boot is ripped. plastic rear part of the seat that is around the tailight is scratched, gauge is scraped and he had a bloody lip and a hurting ankle. sorry no pics we took some with the camera phones and i can't put those on here. we called the dealership and it is a good friend and riding buddy of ours that works up there as a salesman that sold him the sled. the sled almost ended up on the road. we called him from right there on the trail and he said to bring it up. we drove a truck and trailer over there and lifted it on and he's on the way up there now. i couldn't go with him but i told him to tell me what they said. he has no isurance on it. will warranty cover this or will they just cover the ski bolt and aluminum chunk
