Sell the RX-1 for Apex/Venture??

[cobalt650]

Well, here we go. My immaculate 05 RX-1 ER, pampered, all updates, perfect maintenance, yada yada, was put on Craigslist yesterday. Why? 3 little girls that love to ride with me, so we are looking at 2-ups. But holy moly, I'd miss this thing. So now I'm wondering, perhaps I get a good 2 up. If miserable on solo rides, get a 1 or 2 year old Apex. Will I realize significant improvements with the Apex, or will I still miss the RX-1 at that point? I have a couple of offers around $5,000 for my RX-1, so if I do sell it, now seems like a good time.

get an apex! u can put 2 ppl on it and riding a 2 up alone would be terrable. and the apex has more power and throttle response than the rx1. also sound amazing, i love the sled

The biggest difference is the seating position between the RX1 and the Apex. Some folks have a hard time adjusting to the upright seating position that the Apex has, but most seem to like it better. Now if your looking at the RS Venture that machines seating position is about the same as your RX1. I say keep your RX1 and buy a used RS Venture for cheap! Two's better than 1.
