Default 150+ HP 431lbs. Snow Check time!!!!
Snow checked a 163" Pro Ride RMK. Anyone else excited by this new sled? 150+ HP in 431lb. package? December can't come soon enough!

I would be excited if I were you. I don't think people realize how fun sleds are until they ride them. Especially that beast!

Sounds like a rocket, but lets hold off on December, Chicago winters suck!!

Nothing compares to the 2010 Ski Doo.The RMK's are nice but I've been riding Ski Doo since the 70's.Ski Doo has raised the bar for all other manufacturers.

I have an 09 154 x skidoo. I like it a lot but I don't think it will compare to the new RMK for tight stuff and sidehilling. I can't wait until December to compare them side by side.

I demo'd the pro ride and the new e-tec 800 X this last weekend and my vote goes to the e-tec. Gobs of power and they finally nailed the handling down with the XP chassis. Ive got an 08 XP modded and im seriously thinking about snow checking the e-tec. The one thing the Polaris does have over the e-tec is that is looks bitchin!

Congrats on your Snowchecked RMK! I picked up a 2010 Rush 600 this past winter for ditch bangin and even took it to the sno cross track a couple of times. It's a bitchin' machine, no doubt!

I'm curious what the real HP is on the new 800's. 431lbs is 20lbs lighter than a comparable Ski Doo...nothing out of any factory will touch that sled in the deep stuff.

I sold my 800 Switchback but still have my 700. Thinking about selling the 7 and the Rush and buying two of the new Rush Assaults.
