Cold War Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 22 hours ago, Zambroski said: I grew up on Yamaha. The last sled we owned that was American was my dads Merc 440 (me on it). My favorite sled where I really learned how to ride when I had enough meat on me to really start swinging it around was a Yamaha Enticer. The first sled I bought myself was a 1985 Phazer. My dad told be when I got a job he'd co-sign for me. The day I turned 15 I got a work permit and a job bagging groceries...the next day we were loading my new sled up. My dad asked, "Wouldn't you rather start saving for a car?" NOPE!!!! Started out on enticer. Phazer. Was the first sled I bought on my own too. Gun metal.

Floated pretty good but I did get stuck a couple times. Not good when you're 13 years old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
