LE is sharp.. The shocks rock.. I see the seat and the footwell area showing dirt and belt/brake dust on the silver.. Personally think they both are great choices..I’ve been doing the same thing all day. Decided to go LE. Contacted 4 dealers. Now second guessing myself.

Hopefully a lot! But my expectations are actually pretty low on what they will offer even though I’m buying 4 new sleds.Wonder how much off Yamaha’s list price they come down ?

The first new Yamaha I ever purchased was a 1979 SRX. Loved that sled!Back in the day White/Red were Yamahas colors.
1977 SRX 130 AV gas at 16:1 mix I had a 1979 Awesome sled!

I think the 2022 is worthy of wearing the Vintage colors

If that GT model was a little more flashy colour selection I would consider it for the eps

Same here. My wife still rides and loves her 2013 Vector with EPS. It may not happen this year but I’m thinking this is her replacement in the future. She did NOT like the colors this year.Same here..

I really like the new colors. Yamaha really has had the best looking sleds for some time now. The Cat versions look really boring.

Nice line up!! Love the sxr colors looks bad a$$!!!
I wonder why yamaha didn't add both qs3-r shocks along with eps on the srx? I think this would be a killer combination for us high mile trail guys!! Rode my buddy's winder with qs3-r shocks and it was the smoothest 988 i tried to date!!
Ill give the eps a season on snow before pulling the trigger on a new one.

I am seriously thinking of updating my SC Apex. I really like the color's of the 22 SRX. I have owned 6 different years in the past. It would of been a no brainer had Yamaha offered EPS even as an option. Also Jarrett needs to show just a bit of enthusiasm when unveiling new models. Go to the Skidoo launch video and watch the enthusiasm they have. I'm thinking maybe a Mach Z or SRX? Not sure if I would be happy with only 180HP from Skidoo. My Apex puts out 210HP. I ride mostly trails and the odd radar run in North Bay.

These Winders handle and steer VERY good. Just spend some time with setting..I am seriously thinking of updating my SC Apex. I really like the color's of the 22 SRX.

On the 2022 SIDEWINDER S-TX GT EPS I like the factory gas tank added at the rear, however 144 too long or me.
I would like this offered as an aftermarket option with direct gas line on-off valve.

In Northern WI, SRX...$200 of MSRP. Add tax. For some reason that doesn’t sound very attractive for ordering a sled directly from the factory.
