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!

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.

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.
