I dont think they were demo-ing the new nytro. they did have the other ones there though, from what I could see driving by. but they are mostly new graphics, so they could be this years sleds rebadged lol! and the new revs look goofy in person

Well that blows! Glad I didn't go up just for a test ride.
According to the Yamaha site the '08's will be on display in Manchester in April.
I'd loke to see a Nytro up close.

they havent really done a lot at the snodeo in a while. noone really has, dumbass people tend to wreck them. I havent really liked the sno deo in a while. they charge you to go in and look, there are so many pushing people you cant really see them, and noone has anything really good to see. just too much effort and too many bumps for me to want to go anymore. I got trapped and had to go through there yesterday after it was done and the trails were BEAT! but funny enough, I saw a bunch of the yamaha engineers riding the new revs lol!! guess they are sizing up the competition

They were demoing the Nytro. I rode it early on Friday morning. I was there working with a local dealer and we went out for a 15-20 minute ride. That thing is an animal, and handles the bumps like nobody's business. Wheelies on command, but one thing that was was hard to get use to was the steering. It was really responsive, just like the throttle!
Yamaha is getting it, that machine's fun factor is well worth the asking price.

Ya, It's like 50 lbs lighter than the vector, and has a 12-14 hp increase. So ya, It makes a vector feel like a tractor. I took pictures, but haven't uploaded them yet. IMO, Yamaha got it right this time with looks and performance.
