The Freeride got a new outfit. The 2018 model graduated to the Rev Gen 4 chassis and with that comes the Rotax 850 E-Tec motor. New last year, the Gen 4 chassis was successful in allowing the rider to use less effort. The chassis is better balanced than the previous Rev XM chassis. The motor is located more central to the chassis, providing more control side to side. Riders will feel more comfortable sidehilling from either side of the cockpit.
