2007 Yamaha Phazer GT
I went to my local dealer to get some pricing on some parts. I told the "new" service manager that I would like to make my Phazer a little more off-trail compatible and am thinking of extending the track to 136". He told me that the little motor in the sled is too small and would have problems driving a track that big. I told him that Yamaha makes the Phazer MTX with a 144" track with 2" paddles. He didn't say anything. I don't know if I want this guy working on my sled.
Dont you hate when they change personal and how did he quilify for that position?

I had a really good relationship with the previous tech and he knew his stuff. Not getting the warm and fuzzies with the new guy.

Ha. He'd have a hard time figuring out how I managed to squeeze a 121" x 12.5" x 1.35" track in a 20 year old 125 cc Sno Sport and it can still do 45 km/ h .... Maybe he shoul pull up some of the product catelogues for the last few seasons to get familiar with the product line .....
it's alla abaout clutching
maybe he was overthinking it and really meant that you wont get it perfect unless you change more things

Look at it like a teacher should.I bet if you keep the teaching one on one and dont embarrass the guy you will make a good ,knowledgeable friend and that is a really great thing to have in a dealership.

I've been a customer at Wildwood Motorsports since the 80's and always had good service.

That's where I've always taken mine. But there is a new guy wrenching there.

I've known Aaron Excell for over 20 years now, since we were in local neighboring high schools- still the same guy he was just smarter doing his own things instead of turning wrenches for someone else.

His dealership has done me no wrong since switching to Yamaha 2 years ago- Finally went blue after many years of green, LMAO
The raceway is on this weekend!
