2007 Yamaha's

anybody look at the new yamaha's yet? It doesn't look like they changed much except they brought back the phazer which only has 80 hp! and weighs 489 atleast for the mountain model. not to mention its the ugliest sled i've ever seen!

proactive rear susp in the RTX, bye bye mono-shock??

Interesting choice, understandable, but i'd think they would just put a heavier duty spring in it...
Same rear susp, and exact graphics off of last years nytro...cop out.

That windshield looks like they used the same mold that they did for the cowling and just trimmed a little off and flipped it upside down.

Is this the result of a contest for 12 year olds where they design a snowmobile on the back of a cracker jacks box with crayons and send it in??

I imagine it's aimed at the person that likes the lighter snowmobiles rather than the 900cc trail rider. This would be a sled that can be navigated easily through trees and forests where you don't ever need to go 100mph. I like the idea, it's how my dad rode and how he's teaching me how to ride.

I just figured it out. The red one looks like some sort of insect. I don't mind the looks though

No, I just figured it out. They took their Raptor Quad and put a 2 stroke engine and a track on the thing and are marketing it as a snowmobile. Dumb idea.

It does look kind of like a quad though. At least the Jaguar isnt the ugliest thing out there now.
