I was at my dealer last night and he had a presentation that his rep gave him and it looked like we may see an Nytro LTX also. Can anybody verify this?

Yeah, check the Yamaha website, they have posted the new Nytro for next year. It is a 144" crossover.

I know that part, but what about a 136"
i doubt you will see a 136... the xtx is marketed as to the benefits of a 136, with added float of a 144, and trailability of a 121.... with their ad campaign i would highly doubt it....

Yup with the marketing strategy of the 144" i'm pretty damn sure we won't be seeing a 136" Nytro.

Polaris tryied this as well. I rode a 144" Switchback for a weekend and I can tell you one thing. A 144" track with a tipped up rail does not have the trailability of a 121" period. thats why they have gone the other way with that model-136". 144" track is way too much for trail aplications. Just my opinion.

Spoke to some individuals that rode the XTX, although they said it is a very nice cross-over you definately can feel the length and this sled will not be as flickable as a 121", they found the front end very planted and stable but hard to say if this is the geometry change, longer track or combo of the two, need to ride the 121" with new front geometry to make that call.
I can tell you mine with pilot ski's and the negative camber mod done is night and day better that stock for being planted and predictable !

I ride mostly off trail so this will be the sled for me. I may wait a year though. Wish I had it for Yellowstone this year.

I have a phazer fx and went riding with a buddy that had a 07 switchback 600 144 with 1.5 track on it, and it handled awsome on the tight trails we were on. It really suprised me I thought it would be to long. So I cant wait till the xtx comes out. But I will end up putting a 1.75 or 2.0 track on it.
