Ok, I finally crossed over to the 4 stroke side today, bought an 07 Phazer MTX, 144", bone stock, and get this, it has only 95 original miles. I am pretty sure the $3800.00 was an awesome deal for this, and only 65 miles from me. Descided it was time to put the old 96' Cat Powder Special to bed. I just can't see rebuilding a 2 smoke every year for the kids to burn down. And Yes this is for the kids, not to say I won't wail on this thing from time to time.
Now, my ?'s are, is there anything I need to be aware of in the way of belts, clutching, weak points to look for, updates, suspension setups, etc,etc,etc. I don't like the way it lays over so easily, is there a proper shock setup to stiffen the front and rear to control it better?
One more ?, do C&A's work well enough for floatation vs. the stock 10-12" wide water skipper skis. I love how C&A's handle on my other 3 sleds, but don't want to sacrifice anything for my 10, and 12 yr old girls. I still have my other 3 Cat 2-smokes, but might be swaying to the side of Honda sounding sleds, hehehe.
4 strokes are a completely new animal for me here, not scared to admit that, just don't want to screw up a good machine with experimenting.
Thanks for the help fellas.
