The RX1 is Right Here.

That snowmobile is going to rock our world. I think it is great. Hope the insurance companies don't go nuts on it.

the sled is on the right road for sure but it is plain to see the rear suspension needs a barrel of good stuff.

I went to Tip-Up-Town this weekend. *There was no snow to ride on and the temps were 45 to 50. *That Sucked!

On another note the RX-1 was there. *If you liked this machine on the web you will LOVE it in person. *I had a chance to start it, it sounded great. *I throttle pull was very easy and the responce was great. *The Yamaha guy said that they ran a SRX700 and the RX-1 head to head and the RX-1 was 6 sled lengths faster. *If this is true, one word WOOOOW!! *One problem with the RX-1 is NO trunk. *They(Yamaha) said that there will be a "SMALL" trunk under the hood. *They said maybe 2 pops.

gtse700,
*6 lengths over the srx? * dam, I love my srx but 6 lengths is too incredible. *How far was the run for the rx-1 to get that far ahead?
*Now i mayhave to get one. *just what i need, a payment book.

Cool

I bought Two RX-1er Limiteds in Liquid Silver Friday. My dealer said they were ran in the 1/4mile and it was 6 1/2 sled lenghts. But remember this is with 65% more torque *Below 7000 rpms than any sled previously produced. It's definetly going to rock.
