This dynamic new sled was introduced on February 10, in advance of the rest of the 2013 models, which will be revealed to the public March 5.
The new 800 Pro-RMK 155 provides mountain and deep snow riders with exactly what they need for terrain domination: A strong, lightweight – 417 pounds – flickable chassis and outstanding power.
The 800 Pro-RMK 155 features strong, lightweight materials and components such as the QuickDrive™ Low Inertia Drive system, the first belt drive system in production for snowmobiles.
The complete system—lightweight brake, extruded drive shaft and maintenance-free belt drive in place of a chaincase—reduces sled weight by more than 6.5 pounds, and provides a 21 per cent reduction in rotational inertia for enhanced efficiency and acceleration.
This Pro-RMK model has carbon fibre overstructure for strength and light weight, and the belly pan and suspension torque arms are also lighter yet strong and durable.
All-new PowderTrac™ running boards are strong, high-traction platforms consisting of minimal structure for the lightest weight and ample open space for optimal snow evacuation.
The 800 Pro-RMK 155 is built on the strong, ultra-stiff Pro-Ride Chassis™, which is 300 per cent more rigid and is the most flickable chassis on the snow. A rider enjoys precise control with less effort.
The RMK® Coil-Over Rear Suspension is the ultimate deep snow suspension. Equipped with premium Walker Evans shocks, this suspension delivers outstanding flotation and deep-snow performance, and offers an improved on-trail ride.
The Pro-Ride RMK Adjustable IFS also has Walker Evans shocks and the ski stance is adjustable to 39, 40, and 41 inches. This sled is powered by the 800 Cleanfire® engine, which provides outstanding throttle response for instant acceleration and automatically calibrates as elevation and temperature change.
A rider enjoys greater maneuverability and enhanced riding comfort with the new Pro-Lite seat.
The tail of this new seat is 5.5 inches shorter so it’s easier to throw a leg over. The front of the seat is flatter and over 2.5 inches wider for greater comfort, and the seat is lighter, as is the strong new seat support.
