408 lbs: The PRO-RMK is the world’s lightest mountain sled.
The light weight makes the sled more agile and easier to ride – especially with the rigidity of the AXYS chassis. How easy is it to ride? The 2016 800 PRO-RMK 155 makes it easier to initiate and hold a sidehill, and it is more responsive to rider input than any other mountain sled.
NEW CHASSIS, REDESIGNED SUSPENSION
The patented, raised AXYS chassis improves lift to get the 800 PRO-RMK 155 up on top of the snow immediately, and its increased clearance reduces drag, allowing the sled to stay on top.
This is the lightest and most durable Deep Snow chassis. It maintains the RMK’s renowned rider-balanced positioning so the rider enjoys the ultimate in sled control and insane sidehilling capabilities. Polaris used advanced design optimization to develop a chassis that is lighter yet stronger and more rigid. The redesigned rear suspension of the 800 PRO-RMK 155 is 3 lb. lighter and 15% more rigid than before.
Rigidity increases responsiveness. With this more-rigid chassis, the sled responds immediately and predictably to rider input. This makes it easier to ride – by riders of all skill levels – and since less input is required, riders are less fatigued and can enjoy riding longer.
A Polaris-exclusive mountain track – the all-new Series 6 2.6" track – provides the ultimate performance in all riding conditions, including more traction and lift in deep snow.
POWERFUL, PROVEN 800 H.O. ENGINE
The 800 H.O. engine has proven itself in a full season of powering Polaris Trail Performance and Crossover sleds. It delivers outstanding acceleration and broad mid-range power, with horsepower that’s competitive with class-leading 800 engines.
This quick-revving engine spools up rapidly, providing mountain riders with instant throttle response to generate sled lift. This engine has a high-flow intake and exhaust, and a low-inertia crankshaft that delivers quicker throttle response and lower gyroscopic effect, making it easier for a rider to change directions.
The combination of the powerful 800 H.O. engine and a 408 lb. sled gives the 2016 PRO- RMK the industry’s best power-to-weight ratio.
ALL-NEW FRONT SUSPENSION
The 800 PRO-RMK 155 has a new front suspension to provides more control off-trail and more compliance on-trail.
Innovative features of the new front end include:
- The industry’s first forged aluminum A-Arms, which provide optimal strength and lighter weight.
- Taller, design-optimized spindles support the raised chassis and reduce drag.
- Premium, lightweight Walker Evans Impact-Extruded Monotube shocks that deliver outstanding performance in a unique one-piece design.
QUICKDRIVE SYSTEM ENHANCES PERFORMANCE
Further enhancing the performance of the 2016 RMK models is the industry-leading QuickDrive® Low-Inertia Belt System. It has a new, lower final drive ratio and 7-tooth drive sprocket for better lift and acceleration. The system’s strong and robust design reduces operating temperatures and increases shear resistance.
The sled’s industry-leading RMK driveline has been improved for 2016. These upgrades enhance system durability, including a new CVT belt that delivers better performance and a longer service life.
COMPACT AXYS BODY DESIGN
Deep snow riders benefit from the compact AXYS® body design because it provides the industry’s highest lean angle to keep the weight on the skis and track – even in the meadows – and it minimizes paneling out.
Ask any avid mountain rider and they’ll tell you that paneling out doesn’t only occur on steep inclines. It is a factor in carving and control at any angle. The confidence-inspiring, compact AXYS bodywork gives riders the greatest lean angle and a larger “sweet spot” in the meadow.
INNOVATIVE AXYS DESIGN
