After I sat on the nytro and then back to the apex/attak they felt so dated, I thought I wanted a Attak for my next sled but now I am thinking nytro...Major difference, I wish I didnt sit on it now!
Seating Position on the new Nytro FX ???

Leaning out left or right while turning your knees/shins are against rounded panels on the Yamaha.
Instead of being rounded the new Ski-doo has a squared edge where the side panel angle changes.
---Right where your knee/upper shin will be banging against.
Thats what I observed when I sat on the new Ski-doo.

Dave,
I sat on them both today at the local show in Moncton. I felt the Nytro was more like the current Rev. I didn't find the toe hold comfortable for my size 12 feet and the seating position felt awkard through the thighs. I much prefered XP seating postion. I didn't feel locked in and it seemed comfortable with my 6"2 frame. I sat on all the sleds at the show... and the Cats & Pols weren't worth talking about. I felt the new Rev is much my like Apex in the seating position area with my 2" pivot riser. I wish knew if the Xp would not fly all to hell in two rides.. Its looks so flimsy at 400lbs dry. Any luck selling your Blair Morgan Rev?

HAHA, I was there myself to the show in Moncton too, and I felt the FX Nytro seating position was in fact very much like the current Rev except the seat was much higher, so my hips were actually quite a bit higher than my knees. The seating position on the XP felt great, but standing required a slight reposition of my feet, perhaps the riser just needed to be higher or adjusted more forward....what a mind boggling day !

did you notice like almost no one was at the Polaris and Cat booth... nice crowds at the Yamaha & Doo booths though... I'm leaning towards an XP. I noticed that too.. You had to adjust your feet to stand up. I want to wait a year and see how they hold up.

Same here in Ottawa yesterday. Probably will be reflected in #1 and #2 in sales.

The new FX Nytro rider position is about 14 inches forward compared to the old Nytro/Vector class sleds. The new XP chassis gives a little more room to move your feet forward, but the Yamaha seat is slightly higher, especially compared to 03-07 Revs, which keeps your knees at a nice bend while still making it an easy transition to stand up.

I loved the ridingpossition on the new Nytro. liked my old rev but it was to low and i got tired... the Nytro seat was great!!!
Seat my arse on one thursday,built in feb,seat was plush and more material than my warrior.More room back and forth.Very much like a VENTURE LITE to seat on,until you stand up,than its like a phazer.Lots of room in the foot holds.My 6-foot frame found it to be very roomy.VERY rider forward,sit on a freestyle and you get the idea.
