Delema

[rsvectorman]

Well i went to the milwaukee show to look at the new vector. When i sat on it i didnt like the seating my 08 vector felt much better. When i sat on the apex ltx the seating felt almost perfect. I dont want a 128 i perfer a 136. So here is my delema .I am 5'5 and weight about 145 lbs. Is the apex xlt hard to turn i am concered that this sled is a big boy and may be to much sled for me. Do i just get the vector ltx and try to have the seat built up like the apexs is.The big apex looks awesome. Also does the apex need 91 octane gas ? Any advise on this would be helpful in making my selection. I am planning to get a left over 2012. Thanks

The vector LTX I thought was the exact same sled as the new Apex, just a different motor?

seat on the apex is taller and different shape because of the exhaust

the apex has Power steering, turns with one finger... 91 octane is recommended but has a detonation sensor so running 87 isnt the end of the world.

I have the same sled you're looking at 2012 Vector LTX and with the EPS it is a dream to ride. I rode nearly 300 miles in one last year, first time ever and I was still wanting more miles. My buddies were wimping out on my because they didn't have it. I'm thinking either one would be just fine. And the motor pulls strong and hard just not the same top end as the Apex. Can't really use most of the top end anyway so save a few dollars and get the Vector.
