Ultimate boondocker 1989 Yamaha phazer

- @phazed_and_confused and @sled_lab on instagram This is my 1989 phazer I got carried away with. Including the sled and every thing on it as it sits I have 1300.00 in to it. I think it's the most modified first gen phazer on the planet. Please share this video. I want to see more of these projects. This thing is over 100lbs lighter than a pro rmk 155 (wet weight on both). No snow sticks to mine, so in real world riding its 130-150 lbs lighter. Way easier to get unstuck, cheaper to repair, better mpg, and goes 95% of the places an 800 rmk can go. I know this because I have a 2014 pro rmk 155 800 and a 2015 summit t3 174, and the phazer is the most fun to ride. Next summer I plan to build an aluminum bulk head head for it and countless other mods over next summer to shave even more weight, and a turbo kit is in the works as well.

Dude make an update on this thing, I wanna see it in snow looks great
Just putting out new videos right now.
Not a Phazer fan but I love seeing what people do with their old iron. Nice work.
when are you gonna make a video of testing it in snow? please make one. thanks
Please please PLEASE make a video on you riding it! :D I love these old Phazers, and this looks amazing.
+Joakim Liland sorry I don't have any videos of it. The few times I had a chance to ride it this year was breaking in the engine, and testing clutching setups. Where I live in mn never had more than 10 inches on the ground, and the U.P. Never got deep enough for my liking. Spent my time in northern Colorado riding my skidoo 174.
Damn, seeing a modded phazer is like my childhood dream. Its awesome you did this, really love it. Hope you can upload a video of you riding it in the near future.
that's gotta be the coolest classic sled I've seen. great job man! love the color scheme. kinda wanna do this to my 97 wedge chassis
awesome job on the sled Jesse looks amazing. happy sledding cheers!!!
Really nice work!!!
that's very cool. you've done some nice work to that sled
Sweet ride. Love me some old Yammy 2-Strokes !!!
This is the best thing ever. I need to build one...
You nailed it
That is the coolest looking sled I have ever seen! I am looking forward to more videos.
New.video
Awsome build man.
I love the seat job!!
looks awsome!.
If you want a good skid plate go to a junk yard and get the plastic skid plate from a 85-94 Chevy s10 blazer or a s15 Jimmy and trim it down to size. It fits the belly pan great.
We need to see this in the snow!! i have a 93 exciter II (non sx) that could lose some weight and become a solid modifiable machine... but the phazers are generally better from what i understand...
New video up
Exciter is just a big Phazer, I've had both
Defly cool!
hey awesome build! me and the old man did a phazer 2 one time, nothing like yours, just a mountain phazer witha 1.5''' ripsaw, rebuilt with wiesco pistons, dg pipe, carbon reeds from the newer phazer, shaved the fan and a few more things but mostly stock.. what a weapon!! used to follow a sx viper 144 deep snow special wherever it could it go! love these little 485's!
that phazer is awesome!!!!
The rear is sort of a single shot rear skid,cool.
Nice job!
Brilliant!!!
like it.. just picked up 89 phaser for $50.. out a barn.. ditch banger for my 13yr.. u gave me some great ideas... thx for video.. bbbrraaaaaappppp
I LOVE THAT
Dude, that's a sweet job. I love it "way over the F@ckin Top". LMAO! You've thought of everything in here and the cold air intake is ultra smart, and makes me wonder why they didn't do a better job with that from the factory. Ive got an 89 SRV I've been restoring and it's an absolute blast to ride. I'm toying with the idea of making it a long track, but it's so close to original now, I'd hate to screw it up. Color scheme on the phazer is good, but I think I might have used a little less blue and maybe used some bare aluminum on the running board traction screws. I don't know, just htink some silver accenting would make it pop. But seriously, awesome job!
Very good, indeed!😃⤴️⤴️
Love this.
I'm a sled-tech, and I'm doing a similar build. Came across this video just looking to see what's been done and get some ideas. Just curios what you did with the drivers and tunnel to accommodate the lugs on that track.
+Syxxes the drivers are one tooth less and still 2.52. So the smaller drivers allow for a little extra room and gears in down about 12%.
i'm in love with it man, currently working on my 488 indy Polaris and I wanna make it look sexy i'm making the hood gold with a warp
I have a '93 and I am very impressed with your sled! A buddy told me that slapping a set of slide carbs off a mid 90's Yamaha 500 or 600 Vmax reallys makes them run. He also said that the plungers needed mods?? Can't quite remember. Dig your sled!
with that pipe, a layer taken out of the head gasket, some vmax 600 carbs, and clutching, ive seen those things walk all over lots of 600s of its day. all of those parts you can find in a junkyard for peanuts being so old now. the stock pipe and carbs choked those sleds off pretty bad.
Very sweet,great platform.
no videos riding!?!
There's no way in hell your getting 90hp out of that little fan cooled rwin! My race prepped 440's were barely making 80-90hp. ..from Wyoming USA 🇺🇸 🤠
this is awesome man ,had to subscribe plan on doing some similar mods to mine possibly a 144 track and skid I found on craigslist though!
This is one of the coolest project snowmobiles I’ve ever seen! Keep it up!
Nice.. I have a 86 that's had some mods to it, Engine bored pipied and widened and got bigger slide carbs..it's crazy..
I got video on my channel..
Any advice on painting sleds? I got an 82 enticer I plan on painting but not too sure how to do it. I want the paint to last obviously and I plan on painting the hood and all the plastics and the tunnel if hats possible
holy fuck its looking dope man geat work i would love to make one to
Nice , alot of work went into it . I use to have a 1995 Phazer mountain lite , it went good .
What's up Jesse it's Bryan from Colorado
+Bryan Muhme what's up dude. Sorry I don't check these comments to often. If you have that phazer when I come out for a little vacation I'll totally take it home with me, after fair compensation of course.
+jesse cook still have it better bring a big trailer picked up about 8 of them
You still have that jem of a sled? My first sled was a 88 phazer. Id still have it if it didnt get stolen. I still miss that sled.
Great sled, Jesse. I ride an 89 here in Japan with similar mods. But I am a hack and you are clearly an artist. More please!
+Akatarawa Japan thanks dude. waiting for the snow to fall here. japan looks sweet. watched some of your vids.
holy fuck
boy do i have storys to tell about anger about the sled in the 1970 days could write a book but i say what they beat the shit of it so bad then it broke and now its all on me like i killed it fuck them the guy that snapped it blamed it on me haha thats bull
Craziest sled ever was an exciter I saw that had a twin 800 wound out........so damn loud!
sad thing about phazer engines is they don't take mods to good. I know of 6 that they wiesco pistons and not long after installing all 6 machines put the right side connecting rod though the case. one had a DG PIPE. one had a aaean pipe and the other 4 were stock exhaust
Yeah. It it's like a 200$ engine. Nice and cheap to replace. Never blew and engine in thousand of miles of these growing up. Stock or modded. I know of a guy that ran a turbo @14 psi for a drag phazer. Same air cooled 485 for nine years and no problems. It's all about that tune.
dude good job fuckibg hilarious, but cool seriously you said 90hp that's rad
If you are using it in the mountains you should use a bigger shock because the fox floats blow
I've done a custom bumper in the front of mine, check out my latest vid, to maybe get an idea

Awsome! Just like mountain sledding used to be 25 years ago! Built not bought. Now you can't do a whole lot to them other than a can and a decal kit.Cheers from Alberta!
very i impressive
Hey Jesse I'm wanting to build one but I need the lengths of like the tunnel and need to know how u made the skid also what I will need if will are willing to tell me what all I need I'd be really thankful
+Dalton Landrum i made the skid first, and made the tunnel to fit after the skid was done. i bought a sheet of aluminum, made the measurements, and marked the sheet where i wanted it bent. had a local guy bend it up for me.
nice inspiring. i got 2 91 136" how does motor like 151" 2.5"? i live in montana was thinking 144 but maybe 151
It's great at 1000ft elev where I ride this.
I see people reversing the front forks scissors like you did, is there a reason for that?
what is the skid based on? what does it weigh ? Oh and this is exactly what I've been wanting to do for a while now!!!
+rageridersrx skid is a 2014 rmk assault skid. i modified it for the mono air shock though, and made some rail extensions. full of fuel ready to ride it sits at 410lbs, and no snow sticks to the back of it, because theres no heat exchangers on the tunnel. this sled holds very little snow 5-15lbs at most. compared to modern mtn sleds can hold as much as 100lbs, and usually 50-70 lbs if your riding off trail.
I hate phazers, but I love this sled, so much vision and work went into this, its cool, and prolly a great sled to ride?
It's almost more snowbike than snowmobile it's so light and maneuverable
which ski doo riser and what lenght please? Looking for that same one for my 91 Phazer 2
Don't know exact length. Skidoo summit sp is what it's from.
still waiting for the ride video!
Hey Jesse, I'm doing the same thing with my phazer and am wondering about the suspension, where did you get the rails and did you use the original guts of the suspension. thanks. awesome vid man!
+Mack Baldwin (Zombi3slayer55) its a 2015 rmk assault 144 skid i stretched to fit the 151 track. then i made some modifications to the suspension arms for the fox float to fit.
Awesome, Thanks!
I love this, just bought my first Phazer 2 a couple days ago. I know absolutely nothing about snowmobiles but I want to mod it like crazy!
The best thing U can do is put a AAEN pipe on it, best bang for the buck
What are you using for The Handlebar Riser did you have to get cable extensions? Did you just do away with the speedometer and tach?
I'm curious why Yamaha and other companies didn't make mountain versions like this back in early 90s and late 80s, I mean, the technology was there already. Hadn't they figured out that longer tracks and bigger pegs make them better in the deep snow? I just don't get it.
Anyways, really cool build!
I saw this on Craigslist and thought it was really cool. Nice build.
+Crossfire800 thanks, i was offered 2,900 for it and decided to keep the sled
what part of Michigan you in if I may ask
Sick dude. I just bought one for $350. Runs mint cant wait to give a good first rip.
Get a AAEN pipe, it will wake it up
Hey great looking sled I have a 1995 that I've been tinkering with I cut the running boards off and welded up some Pipe ones kind of like yours and did the handle bar riser a DG pipe and plastic skis I had to use a clutch cable off of a Honda motorcycle for the break cable but I would like to run a different chain case so I can run hydraulic brakes instead and give me more room for a taller lug track I would like to talk with you about your sled can I call you thank you
That is one bad ass sled I'm hopefully getting a 1991 Yamaha excited 570cc a 1993 Yamaha exciter 570cc and a 3 place trailier an I wanna make one like this
the most tricked out custom sled
Jesse cook, where did you get the exhaust from and how does it sound? bad ass sled, I want to convert mine into a st version.
+Lawrence Armstrong aaen pipe. sounds great. doing some final touches to the sled and ill make some more videos of it.
Right on, I'm stoked to hear it rip, do I have to rejet my carb if I make that cold air intake?
Call me when you sell it, is that a polaris driver shaft? Or is the pitch on that track the same as the stock track pitch...2.52 I believe.
Stock pitch is 2.52 as is the Polaris track on it. This sled is always for sale. I just need the right offer.
What did you use for paint? Did you use spray paint or did you have someone do it?
Spay. Did it all myself.
Put some videos of riding this hound dog
lol 90hp my stock 1992 Polaris indy 440 makes more with the xcr carb swap
Yeah it's 150lbs heavier than mine though. It's all about power to weight.
throw that motor away unless ya boost it
how do i get my hands on a long track like that?
a store :b
i wanna see some riding pls!!
NEw riding video up
project WOTFT
where did you get the 6 tooth drivers and is that all you did to gear it for the 151 track? what did you do to fit the taller lugs?
+Will Haas i got the drivers off of eBay from a guy in wisonsin. i think they were 40$ or so. i think they are acctually for a srv540. 6 tooth driver and the shaft is hexagonal, (six sided). stock lugs to 1.5 inch needs no mods. 1.5 inch is very tight though. any taller needs smaller drivers, and the front of the tunnel (where the track wraps around the driver) has to be moved forward or replaced with new metal to make room. i went with new metal.
Another 45 mph long track phazer lol
I fuckin love this thing
why tho? isnt it still super slow
What running boards are those
Almost a year and a half and no update with you actually riding it? Did you sell it?
Just putting out some new riding videos now.
i got a yamaha phazer from 1988 and im planing to upgrade and modefy it! what should i do first??? (sorry if i spelled modefy wrong)
i mean a 1987🤔
Bigger track. That's number one. The. Just start shaving weight.
I'm looking to do the same setup with mine, what did you use for rear suspension, track, etc..?
Looks great. I'm looking at picking up a Phazer 2, think I'm gonna take a bit of inspiration from this to make it less slow.
you did a great job how much hp does that machine put out
Maybe 80ish
How much did that cost in all
Show some action with this, ASAP!
he cant!!! its not season for that in his country
But now it is, and he posted videos of it :D
barerobert yeah im not dumb
MOFFIN i never Said that either :) I just wrote it in case you did not see it yet. Was just a friendly gesture :)
barerobert ok then.. sorry if i hurt your feelings😄 i love the phazer and im actually going to mod one my self (i have 3)
do you have any snow there yet? i want to see this thing rip. those running boards are amazing i wanted to do the same with my 89 but i am afraid it will fold the tunnel without the stock running boards?
+Graysen Brown stock running boards are so flimsy. tubular ones increase the strength of the entire tunnel. i have been doing lots of testing the last couple days, and will be doing more this weekend.
+jesse cook yea I know stock ones are terrible and flimsy but to me looks like it gives the tunnel strength do you think I could do same type on the stock tunnel and make tunnel stronger or would I need custom tunnel like yours?
+Graysen Brown stock tunnel is totally fine. when i bought the sled, the tunnel had a massive dent in it. that was my main reason for the new tunnel. i duplicated the stock dimensions, except mine is longer.
OK awesome thanks man cant wait to see some videos of this thing ripping
Yep vids would be cool to see it action!
What color was that paint?
Where did u get that seat
Too bad it does'nt run .
wow I have a 1990 Phazer II - And a 1988 Exciter liquid cool
Did u need any cable extensions for those risers?
Yes. Both.
+jesse cook what size riser are those
I love it cant wait to see a video of it in the snow....
+rageridersrx there will be plenty of those videos
Awesome build, think I seen it south of Houghton a week before Christmas
