Rode an Apex at Haydays

[yzm450]

Yamaha had a small dirt track set up off site. They sound good and pull hard.

I finally got to ride one of these machines. Awesome! We looked all over the place first thing Saturday morning and were the first ones in line. We ripped the grass up pretty good. I bet by the end of the day it was pretty rough. We watched a couple people go after us and one person took the Nytro out. That extra 30 hp on the Apex really mades a difference.

Here are a couple videos of rips on the track... pretty short but still rocked
Now I really can't wait for that call from my dealer

Were those production sled or prototypes? It looked like there was an RTX there.

Those were the sleds used last year on the test rides.

They had prototype GT, RTX, ATTAK, and Nytro. But the wrong panels were on the wrong sleds - only the windshields were correct. The RTX looked like an APEX ER, ATTAk looked like a RTX, and GT looked like an APEX ER. All the videos were the GT.

So much for the back flap on the RTX.... LOL

I see there were three variations of the storage compartment. The original plastic cover and then there were two flaps one was nice and firm and kept its shape, the other sunk down and looked beat up.
