This spring when I was sitting on the REV at my dealer, the bars felt to me that they were too far forward like the straight bars on a X package that I sat on previously. Did anyone who rode it feel the same way? I felt the straight bars were uncomfortable (for me)

I rode it, *Didnt really notice a problem. *It felt really good.

I caught the ski-doo tour this winter and sat on a REV. *I thought the bars were too low. *When I steered, the end of the handlebar hit me in the thigh just above the knee. *And I'm only 5'7". *This was a simulation of a slow sharp corner, though. *When I pretended to really corner and leaned out off the sled, obviously my knee swung out so my leg was out of the way. *But then my hand was in my crotch. *It just wasn't working.
Then, since it was an early show-off sled, maybe it didn't have the risers or bars on it that the production sleds are getting.

I just heard that a second buddy has ordered a REV, so hopefully will get some seat time this winter.
