Phazer vs 600SDI Rev

[Tantrum]

I just came over to a Apex GT for a yellow bee and Im really digging it. The two stroke smoke never really bothered me when I was riding one but now you can tell your closing in on one a mile away.
My wife has an MXZ600SDI that has been sitting for two seasons because of our 2yr and 9mo old girls. She is ready to start riding again but Im thinking maybe she needs a new four stroke
She rides, I cant get her something that is not as good or better or it will not fly. She is small (110lbs) which is why Im starting here before looking at the Vector or...

So heres my question.
Will a Phazer GT run with or out run a 600SDI?
Is the riding style comparable?

Thanks for your thoughts

It all depends on her type of riding. If 50 miles an hour is fast enough for her then yes but if she is a lake runner and needs the high speed then no.
You can't beat the handling and the feeling of the Phazer. I love it and I am a small rider that has a much bigger sled for when I want to go fast but still usually end up on the Phazer.

I spent 3 seasons on an 05 Rev 800x. I snow checked a 08 RTX and now have 500 miles on her. Yesterday I rode 120 miles with two of my Rev 800 buddies and through the tight twistie trails and rough ditch banging I was always right there. The suspension is awesome! I personally feel not as tired after riding it 120 miles as I did throwing around the weight of the old 800 for 120 miles plus the fuel mileage is another plus. Yes I am giving up a c-note going across the lake,but I also have two small children and this is the perfect sled for a family. I didn't want my kids at the throttle of an 800, I have perfect power for everyone plus a little extra suspension for the old man-lol. I would have to say yes the riding style and ergos are really similar to the rev after now ridden them both. You would be giving up hp but gaining more in other areas imo.
I also agree 100 percent with Tturbo!

Best of luck to you and yours.

If she doesn't have to be he fastest across every field and lake, the Phazer will keep up through the twisties. The thing I notice is It can be ridden faster in tight areas with much less effort. I don't mind riding it with others on my Rx1. But if she wants to always keep up and isn't tired by the extra effort it takes, bigger is better. FYI I have had a REV600 sdi, 3 RX1's, and a Phazer as well as a huge number of older Yamis.
