Vertical escape V.s RMK edge

[Grey44]

Just looking to see what the difference is between the two models

Thanks in advance

Escape has a different chain case, steering post and riser set up, non adjustable trailing arms that are lighter than the rmk model, det, light weight seat and reverse at least in 03.

04's have different seats, steering posts and trailing arms but otherwise the same

We have both in our garage...and after a couple of mods they are pretty much the same. Both have raised bars - albeit different heights - and both have aftermarket lightweight seats. The difference in the stock seat weights is pretty amazing tho, with the Escape seat being way lighter than the stock Edge seat.

Perc reverse, Series IV 159" track, color scheme (very sexy I might add), lightweight fixed width trailing arms, lightweight rear skid, lightweight bogie wheels, Boss inspired lightweight seat that was taller than the Edge seat, upgraded shocks (most were Ryde FX, some were Fox) T-top steering post (shorter and lighter with a riser block stock), TEAM clutch, leather handlebar pad, leather cover over a clear tank, DET, phantom chain case, and probably more stuff I'm forgetting.

do they all come with perc or was that an option

I believe the Escape started in 03 and all came with PERC

Yes 03 was the first Escape model and the only one that came OEM with PERC that year.

Actually the 600 rmk also came with perc reverse but none of the other options that the escape had.
