OK.
New to Polaris and I know there are differences between years. Looking at taking an 09 RMK Assault and dropping a nytro motor under the hood.
How much of a difference is there between the geometry / handling of the 09 to 13 RMK's? I know the boards, shocks, tracks etc. have changed but from a pure handling perspective how different are they.
Love the nytro motor for its power and dependability but the stock chassis is not great for off trail unless you have oodles of powder - too much weight centralized ahead of the rider without doing the aftermarket front end, rear skid, and so on. Looking for a more capable, fun sled that's easier to play on but hesitant to go 2s - willing to accept the 30lb penalty for the 4s over the 2s. From what I can figure the Assualt or the Freeride would best suit riding preferences.
Comments appreciated.
