Well we went for a ride yesterday for about 90 km and wifey seemed to like her new shift i took it a few times myself and to be honest I thought it performed very well. It may not have the midrange torque of the phazer but holds its own very well. I imagine that once I get the first tank of oil enriched fuel through it ,it will be even better . It is lighter to throw around in the powder than the Phazer .The main drawback is the two stroke exhaust smell but ,hey thats not a huge issue.
The speedo crapped at the 20 km mark but that seemed to be the only issue of the day. it uses more fuel than the Phazer but that may improve after brake in , I don't expect any miracles but for the money I payed ( 6000 vs 8000 for a new gt) i think it will do the job . Beside , she's happy, and we all know , " if the momma aint happy , nobody's happy"

Did you do any trailriding with it?How was handling compared to Phazer?

I did ride it on the trail and yes I t does handle better than the phazer .It is easier in the corners and handled the bumps really well. I didnt touch the suspension and just rode it as is .The one thing I dint like about it was that it has no electric start , and being carburated it can be a pain to start cold.
