Hey all. Well, as Im sure you all know, I had an '07 Phazer FX on order. Last week I cancelled that order and instead bought an '06 Yamaha YZ 250F.
Ive always wanted to get into motocross racing and the 250F will allow me to get my foot in the door. Now its a matter of how far my courage and talent can take me.
I sincerely think the Phazer is going to be a great sled and I hope everyone who bought one truly enjoys their sled.

Nice excuse there sally. Next time take the skirt off and buy the sled.
You will wish you bought the fx when you see lots of them on the trail.

Here Octane, put one of these on that 250F. You might have to bring a little extra gas on a long ride. www.2moto.net/index.htm

Maybe. I dont think I will though. I can ride the bike 9 months out of the year, I can only ride the sled 3 months out of the year (when we actually have snow).
Besides, whipping the bike over the big jumps, blasting over the whoops and throwing up a tidal wave of roost coming out of the corners on the bike beats putt-putting around all day long on the sled. Im going to have waaaaay more fun on the bike than I ever had on the sled.
When the time comes that the XC is at the end of it's life, I will probably be done with sleds. When that comes I will probably buy a TT-R, stud the tires and tear it up on the ice all winter long. :div20:

Haha...thats pretty cool. You are right about wanting to bring a little extra gas. My YZ only has a 1-gallon gastank.

It's not the same. I raced MX for 22 years, quit racing in 04 but still ride on occasion and still own 3 MX bikes. At any time, if I'd had to choose between them my bikes would have been gone first. Snowmobiling has always been more fun then racing MX but the adrenaline rush comes harder in a race. Racing Cross Country on sleds is THE ultimate adrenaline rush.

GET UP EARLIER AND HAVE BOTH TO RIDE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If that is you on your YFZ in your Avatar i am going to call you crazy. Don't get me wrong racing quads is fun, but imo not near the fun you can have on a sled. You could easily race on the YFZ and still get the Phazer instead of the 250f
