PLEASE REMEMBER WHILE READING MY POSTS I HAVE NEVER RODE A 121 NYTRO!!! ONLY MY 136 AND MY BUDDIES 144...

Some people are saying the Nytro is too stiff, I weigh 135lbs and I will be purchasing a stiffer canter spring! My last sled was a 440X.... I ride with 2 2007 Gade X 800 P-Teks, 1 Nytro RTX 144 and a 2003 REV X 121 with a beaver delete. No one can keep up with me in any bumps, leave me on the lakes or out corner me... THIS SLED ROCKS... but I will be the second to run out of gas! I get the same range to a tank that the 03 800 does. between 50 and 70 miles to a tank, depending on the conditions. That is from filled to the brim to sputtering on fumes... Sucks when the 07 P-Teks get 80-110 mi per tank

Don't expect to hop on a Nytro and have it feel as good as your rev, becuase you will probably be disappointed. Your rev is seasoned and you probably have it exactly the way you want it and everything about it feels like 'home'. Out of the box, I believe the rev to be better than the Nytro....but the Nytro will shine once you get the suspension tuned in to your liking. Be warned...this will take time and many failed attempts at making it better. It feels similar to the rev, but not exactly the same.

In the long run, the Nytro is a much better sled IMO. The motor seems perfect and the ergo's are very good. The suspension has the potential to be incredible, but you have to find what works good for you.

I only have 225 miles on mine, but I feel about 80% comfortable on this after coming off my rev.

Do yourself a favor and stay on top of these threads...as winter really hits in the midwest, opinions (Good and bad) will really start to come out.

I agree with lucky 7, the Nytro will feel awkard at first. But when you get it dialed in and a few hundred miles under you getting back on a rev will feel like going back in time to something unrefined... And I am a ski-doo guy to the core

Thanks

Thank you all guys for your comments.
I will try to ride both sled before next year to help my decision.

I do like the Nytro lots but there is no way a can corner as fast as my 04 rev with 7000 miles on it . Better bump control better motor but won't turn . If i can get this sled to turn it will be the best sled i have ever owned. But until then i am still keeping the rev, what's wrong with a spare sled anyway..

i had an 04 Rev and my Nytro turns better.....what adjustmets have you made from stock....?...although, out of the crate its a nightmare for sure.

I agree though, this sled has crazy potential and is lots of fun.

The way I see it is the Nytro has that same big bump capability but doesn't lock you into one position like the Rev does.

My 136 with C&A's turns fine... If anything the C&A's are a bit agressive. I think the issue is the stock skis
