Looking at both of these sleds. Both brand new from a dealer. The viper is 9k out the door and the nytro is 8k out the door. The nytro comes with a 1 year warranty and the viper has the factory warranty with a 5 year option for $650. Hate buying first year of anything and also do not want to pay too much for a dated chassis. Any input on either machine would be helpful. Thanks rich

i dont think the Nytro would be worth it for 8, you will have a lot of add-ons that you want to do to the Nytro right out of the box.

Viper. And $650 for 5yr warranty sound like a good deal.

Take the viper
go to ebay for your extended warranty. Pretty sure port yamaha sells warrantys on there for 450
Dont think yes has a 5 year option.
Its 4 years plus the 1 year factory warranty for 5 years total.

The viper is a much better deal. That's what I would choose if I was in your shoes.

What is everybody's opinion of the extended warranty? Seems like every time I get one I never need it and rarely use the base warranty.

Viper, I've seen MANY low mileage 10-11' nytros for 5k, some with quite the goodies list including aftermarket "handling fix" A-arms. The second that Nytro leaves the dealer it looses 3k in value, the Viper about 1000$

Get the viper, and I think the 5 year warranty is worth it for 650 as well.
Alot of the vipers have starter problems. Plus a whole bunch of little problems. Cracked headers, broken heat shields, the top of the chaincase covers all crack, etc etc.

Have they got a fix for this starter issue? I have read about so many issues on it. Warranty would be a given after some research. Just don't want to much down time.
