looking for a new to me trailer for my new XTX. Currently I’m running an open with salt shield setup. Looking for a clam shell but wasn’t sure if I can stay with the standard 10’ or have to move up to a 12’.

my 129 Viper barely fits in a 10'
I would think you would need to move up

I'm thinking you need the 12 ft . the xtx is listed as 125 in length .

LTX is 125" also and it fits in my 10'

- Yamaha sr viper 15 ltx dx, mpi 190 turbo, straight line header, 38" mtx front end, mtx steering, mtx seat, xtx 141" skid and 2.25" power claw track
2019 sidewinder xtx le, sleeping for now
Depends on year and trim model, ltx and xtx share the same length tunnel, just different skid mounting holes, 15 xtx le came with a mtx 153" length tunnel which is 5" longer than standard xtx

My sled is a 17 XTX se . It’s definitely not a 153 tunnel, as I struggled with fuel / storage placement.Depends on year and trim model, ltx and xtx share the same length tunnel, just different skid mounting holes, 15 xtx le came with a mtx 153" length tunnel which is 5" longer than standard xtx

Hi Ross, I have a picture of my new 17 XTX SE (that was taken to show the Powderkeg fuel+storage system I bought) that shows how it looks in my 12' drop door trailer... It sure looks like a 10' trailer would come up short for our sleds.

Let me know if you want more pictures or measurements.

I went with a whiteout technologies bracket and a jerry can plus a set of saddle bags for long trips in Canada. I personally didn’t care for the powder keg look but everyone has there style.

Hey Ross, I have a 14 xtx and the only way it fit in my buddies 10ft trailer with a clamshell was to turn it kitty-corner and even then it was a tight fit if you don't want the rear bumper rubbing on the back door.

Yes a 12' would be much better, plus with 2 sleds inside you will have a little room for your spare,A jack and some gear

Thanks guys, yeah probably won’t go the enclosed route this season unless a spectacular deal shows up. Just really wanted to know where to start looking.

I have both an LTX and a 15 LTX-LE with the long tunnel. I can tell you you are going to want a 12' clamshell. I had an open 10' trailer when I bought the LTX, and moved up to the 12' before I bought the XTX. You'll have to hang the skis off the front in a 10'. In a 12', even the longer tunnel lengths fit well.
