07 rtx vs. 07 gt

[donkickit]

Rode friends 07 GT in the rough stuff yesterday on tug hill.
The RTX is night and day in the bumps better vs. the gt.
I thought they would be close but the rtx has a much better suspension.
In the flat fields I would just barely pull away each time.
We both have identical studs and weight so it was a good test.
I'm surprised the rtx held up because it must have bottomed
20 times yesterday. Although the front floats never bottom. I wish
Yammi could get the rear suspension up to par, it's the only thing lacking besides the weight.

Have the shocks re-valved. Rode mine with the re-valves on 1/2, what a difference. I was trying to bottom out and make it pitch and buck like it did when stock. No luck with the new set up. Best $$ yet!! LOL

85.00 Plus tax and delivery.. 115.00 in total. It took about 7 business days to get it back to me. You tell him your weight and riding style...
