What's the difference between rx1 and mountain rx1, can u ride mountain on lakes as good as regular rx, anything special? Just normal trail ride with mountain? Curious mite buy 1
 

Main differences are:narrower front end with a little less travel(shorter shocks),gearing is lower,handlebars a little higher,2" paddles.I've been riding mine on the trails for years.I spent alot of money and time to "convert" it for flat land use but worth every penny to me.
 
I have an 03 rx mnt with a stock front end. I bought the sled with around 5000 km and now have about 15000 km most of the km from trail riding. the sled makes you work in the short and twisty trails but I can keep up with the shorties. I put a zx2 rear skid in the sled and it made a huge difference in the trail handling side of things. And when it's time to drop of the trail well we know the answer there.
