2012 venture GT versus 2012 Vector LTX

[studdog]

Looking for one of these sleds for next year. I've owned 8 yamaha sleds in the last 8 years. Had an 09 Venture GT but felt it was too much for me to handle. I went with a Vector LTX GT which has been a great ride.

My question is, will the power steering have a major impact on handling? My 09 Venture was also tippy due to the high center of gravity. And, being a small person, the suspension couldn't be adjusted soft enough for one up ridiing.

Any ideas/experience would be appreciated. The Venture seat,windshield,mirrors and storage are a big plus for the long range touring I do.

I was talking with my dealer the other day about a new Vector LTX. He noted that the power steering is progressive. Meaning the faster you are going the less it is. It doesn't make all that much difference according to him.

Kinda talked me into going with a 2011 and saving a bunch of dollars
