OK I have a 06 RTX and plain out love it.!!!!
Now with the new skid in the 07 should I move up?
I dont ditch bang anymore in fact I prefer to go straight and fast.
We do loops of 180-250 miles a day now.
Since I dumped my 04 Rev I seem to be able to ride longer.

I have back problems and cant endure the big jarring anymore on the back.

I hear the 07 skid is rougher riding yes no?, any input from Nytro riders?

I found the Mono skid rides way better than my SC10-3 in the rev or it could be just the rev itself.
Its not like I ddint give the Rev a chance I had 2 of them a 03 800 X and a 04 800 HO XPS for 2 years on the 04. What a POS.!!!

I do like to ride hard dont think I ride like a wus, just after a while I like to kick back sit down and cruise along at say 110. lolGotta love lakes and railway lines.
Thanks for any help.

Ps I dont really like the Yellow on the RTX , so it could come off and get powdercoated either way.

I rode the 07's in muni on friday and rode 2 RTX's. Here's my take. The big stuff KING is the CK rear skid in the Nytro and RTX. I thought (if given a chance) I could beat the ever lov'in $*** out of that skid and it would take it. I also thought it transfered weight really well. Is it rougher than the Mono?....Yes on the smaller bumps. But when if you were flying through some chop and catch a freak 3 footer I think the CK will take it with ease. Out of the 14 or 15 sleds that we rode the RTX's were my favorite on the "trails we had" to ride on friday. I don't like the yellow either. One other thing is the seat foam in the RTX is Awesome! stiffer than my Attak and the Bars felt slighly wider.

I rode two different 07 rtx's.One was alittle stiff but the other one was the best 07 sled I rode that thing was awesome with the firm seat geared down and the proactive skid sucked the 3ft moguls rifht up and has major weight transfer while corning great yet.

geared down

That I did'nt know. Those 07 RTX's really got with the program out of the hole. That CK skid with the floats? Man what a set-up for big bumps.
