ok I can get the rtx se129" with the clicker shocks all around or the dx 137"with the standard shocks for the same coin. interested in the ride quality mostly between these 2 . which is better in typical stutter bumps .groomed New England trails not a ditch banger. I like the idea of adjustable shocks but not if they are set up for 300 pound ditch bangers
The clicker shocks on SE make it a better ride for everything. I know what I would do.

are the rear clickers for rebound and compression ? Do these need to be revalved and resprung for a 180 pound rider looking for smooth ride in stutters or do they have enough adjustment built in?. For comparison I have ridden a 15 stock LTX 137 and found that to be really pretty nice as is.

also do the clutch kits fix the mpg on the vipers 15mpg is pretty poor for a 4 stroke my carbed Vector gets 20 in good conditions AND it has more top end then a Viper (weird)
Your carved Vector gets better MPG than almost any sled in existence! Have you raced a Viper on top end? The clicker on SE is 3 position compression clicker.also do the clutch kits fix the mpg on the vipers 15mpg is pretty poor for a 4 stroke my carbed Vector gets 20 in good conditions AND it has more top end then a Viper (weird)

Yup the viper hit a wall at about 85 and I kept going . He got to 85 quicker than me but that was all it had. Not perfect conditions . To be fair my sled has had some time spent making sure everything rolls nice and easy , belt tension spot on clutches shift all the way out..... Little things add up , but We where both surprised
