I just got to take my Brand New '07 APEX RTX out last weekend. I got it in March and have been dieing to ride it.

So far I love it! My buddies have Rev 800s and all spring, summer, and fall they made fun of me...sorta like "giddy up go" was experiencing. By mid summer I was thinking I bought the wrong sled and was giving in to their "no inkling" opinions.

The first ride, I took the RTX out and I was stunned. (I came off an F7 SP) The frickin' power was amazing and ADDICTING!!! I just kept wanting to to goose her, lol. The sled is AWESOME! Quality, craftmanship, motor, etc...everything is very impressive. Give it up to Yamaha for a great sled!!!!

The only thing I noticed so far was the ski lift. I think from what I've been reading I'm going to lower my Fox shocks to 65 PSI and tighten my limiter strap a notch (hole). I'm going to tug hill sunday...hoping it'll help.

...also, the handwarmers sucked. My hands were freezing. My Cat used to be so hot that I couldn't even put my gloves on them without burning my hands off. What can we do about this???

Yamaha Man...lets ride!

I ride all over, from Penn mtn to wherever, if no snow home...if ya see an 06 rtx with the works (red shock guards, belly, mirrors, red wheels, etc), a blue vector, a black rx1, a yellow machz, and maybe a phazer, it's us...we may be a little blurry and have some revs stuck under the front from passing them, but maybe catch you up there sometime. I've ridden to west of Cazenovia from home (east of Cobleskill), so I ain't afraid o miles..lol.

Been dealing with this lack of respect since the first RX1's I had...they were a handful, but put many sleds to shame, especially top end. Sure you roll em once in a while well, once.
I've been spanking bunches on the trails with my 05 Vector, especially at the pumps...the two strokes consume lots when pushing hard, regardless of dfi or whatever, and the twin shocker on the 05 works great.
My 06 rtx will get the rest of them..LOL
