Newbie question Attak vs Apex

[snowbeast]

Attak. I have owned an RX-1, Warrior, 2 Attaks, Apex RTX, Attak GT, Apex LTX 40th Anniversary and just went back to a Warrior. I will never go back to a shorty. The 136 rides better, is more stable at speed, hooks better and looks better. Shorties look like their #*$&@ was cut off. Yamaha's are cruisers. Fast cruisers, but cruisers. Too damn heavy to get to jiggy with in the tight twisties. Get a Rev for that crap.

Yup i agree,the 121 looks weird compared to the 121,but thats all i like about the attack.

I estimate about 85% of TY will disagree with MNMSnowbeast's last statement. Just sayin.

So are you saying that 85 % of all totallyamaha people have owned both sleds for comparision,who i had no idea,that there were that many folks that had changed from 136 to 121 or vise versa,i dont think its that many,now the guys who think the attack handles good,well lets just say,they dont really ride that agressive most of the time,if they did,they would not hold to that assumption.

You like to bark loud and throw out your opinions, don't you Mnmsnowbeast....

Look, I ride aggressive and fast in tight twisty trails. And did I mention icy and bombed out by Saturday afternoon on weekends? Oh, and I've owned and ridden lots of 121's and longer sleds. I personally prefer the Attak. But they are both good.

Fact is, you made the statement guys can't ride the Attak as fast as the shortie on tight trails. That is your opinion. That is all is it is. And I stand by my response that the far majority of guys will dsagree with your opinion. Guys can ride the Attak fast and aggressive -- it's no slower than the Apex for a lot of guys. Maybe in your case Mnmsnowbeast, but not automatically for everyone else too, just because you said so........

I believe the post started,as i have an opertunity to buy a apexgt or attack,and want opions,well that is what i gave,than you butted in,with your almighty statement about 85% bull about everyone wanting an attack,so if you dont like my opiuon,dont read it,or post about it,are you the almighty guru apex/attack man,now on totallyamaha?? if you are than i wont post again,cause i dont want to cause you any undue stress.

Then I would change everything about the sled so it would do what I want it to do and burn money like mad and break it the first trip of the season, but thats me.

After spending like mad this summer, I hope you are alone in the "break it the first trip of the season" department.

I am looking at buying my first Yammi. I going to look at 2 sleds tomorrow.
2007 Attack and 2007 ApexGT

I do not know what the difference between the two sleds are.

I ride 90% groomed trails. thanks in advance

It cool to look back through these old posts and see how things have changed over the years. 136-139 is now the sweet spot for trail machines. 121 are now mostly just on beginner sleds. All the top of the line trail models in 2021 and 2022 run 137" tracks with usually nothing less then 129 as a option.
