I love my Vector GT 2010 standard. What would I gain to go to 136 LTX? I know the bridging of bumps theoretically. Just what do people notice?

I am 90% trail, 10% lake or river running.

The LTX IMO is a better all around sled! The longer track will bridge the bumps better like you said, it will have better traction on trail and off. In my experience a short tracked sled is squirrely on trail where the 136 will be more planted. Not to mention that the 136's are faster than its 121 counterparts.
 
I'm going LTX next time...My Warrior always felt planted but these short tracks in the Deltabox 2 are squirrly, my 07 Nytro isn't so I think it's the weight being more forward?

What he said! The LTX is my first long track....I will never go back.
 
My LTX is my second sled that is 136" in length and they don't squirrel around on you like the shorties do. With the little extra length it also helps the acceleration with the low end grunt from the 4-stroke.
 
My wife has a 2011 Vector LTX. Great all around sled on trail. We Gps'd ours at 107 on a lake last year also. Best trail sled Yamaha builds right now..
 
Put over 100 miles today with my 136 on blown in trails. Waited every 10 miles for the 121's to catch up. They complained all day how rough the trails were. I thot they were just a little bumpy but nothing to really slow down for. Would love to try a 144 tip up one day.
