I'll add another one for the XTX, even though I'm not much of a trail rider. If he ever wants to go off trail, he will much happier with the longer track!

XTX....only way to go! The sled is much more stable and nimble to throw around in the tight/twisties than a 136" Attak or LTX! As mentioned before, you don't know you're on a 144" sled.
Plus, the XTX has a better re-sale value.

I"ve got a 08 RTX and a 09 XTX, so I have a pretty good comparison.....XTX is a better all round sled in my opinion.

Sledaheadgeorage, i think the opinions might be just a little biased toward the xtx when your header reads ATT. XTX OWNERS.
Kinda like asking Chevy owners how good Fords are.

- 2016 Yamaha SR Viper XTX SE
I have had both sleds. The XTX stayed stock, the RTX which I still own has some mods. I sold the XTX because I found myself riding the RTX SE alot more. I feel as though there were differences in the sled, or maybe it was just my mind because I grew up on a short track. It still felt like I was on a long track. Not as bad though... The fact that I faced was that switching to a Yamaha was completely different. XTX or RTX... the RTX just felt a bit more like home. Long story short, sold the xtx for more than I got it for, purchased a hold over 06 RMK for $4500 from a friend/dealer going out of business. Plan on using the RMK just 3-4 times a year when I hit the mountains, but other than that RTX all the way. I guess when it comes right down to it, its a personal preference.... sure I'm dating a brunette but damn those blonds sure are hottttt. hahaa

i'll take my xtx against any rev on the trail or off. My buddy's 09 800 rev can't keep up with it in the bumps & twisties! I'm waiting for him at every intersection.

09 rev 800 has a better suspension and more hp then the nytro.. chances are its the rider, more then the sled.

For trail riding I would have gotten the xtx, but for pounding moguls and ditch banging I bought the RTX. Cheaper to extend an RTX then it is to buy the RTX shocks for the xtx.

And something like fourty kilograms less...
With the same rider, there is no way in hell the FX Nytro will keep up with the Doo or Lynx 800s in the bumps and twisties. RTX or XTX, no chance...

Not biased at all. Short track Nytro owners don't know how the XTX handels in the tight and twisties. Just looking for some input on the ride itself. Thaks for the comments guys keep them coming.
