What an amazing machine. I could actually ride it stock or close for a season or two. Handled so well in the deep and responded to movements very easily. Decent to good power, kinda of just tractors along nicely. Only bad thing I can say is it was terrible on the trail, but Im sure that was just rear suspension setup, and hey, its the trail.

I would recomend this sled to anyone, and with how easy it was to ride, a turbo would be amazing.

I also was able to spend a good amount of time on an XP. Great machine as well, tonnes of power, great suspension. Very nice package.

-The Nytro, you get 1 season to a belt.
-The XP you get 1 day. {if your lucky and the rest of the sled stays together that long!}

we put 80 km on in revy and i was riding with an xp 154. he didnt have any belt issues at all, did have heated grip issues and something about the display saying communication error. other than that it seems like a great sled.

They both ran exceptional all day.

It was a great comparison as I was also able to ride a turbo'd, nitro'd, APEX and that thing was a tank. The Nitro is a completely different sled.

The snow was deep and neither sled had a hicup and it was both their maiden voyages and they were run hard

The rev was great, but me and revs just dont seem to agree on things. The motor was awesome, but i really like the idea of little to no engine maintenance for years !

To much sled for you was it?

:D

Easy there Fabio :nono:, I heard the view looks even better from the bottom of the hill, is that right ? lol

Kind of a neat setup, but yes very tough to boondock. You had to hit the throttle and the nitrous at the same time just to get rolling as the lag was huge, but so was the top end:D

Did you wear the Looter Special suit? Just curious to see if those things provide any ventilation. They look really cool though.I was thinking of picking one up even though I dont ride a Ski-Doo.

i tried both an xp and nytro this weekend - i liked the xp more than the nytro, the nytro seemed to tippy to me, i think it was the way it was setup tho. Both felt light but the xp seemed more stable to me . just my 2 cents
