800 SKS 146 ES

Overview

Description

The 800 SKS 146 is the ultimate deep snow crossover snowmobile. It offers both instantaneous lift when off-trail in the deep snow, as well as smooth handling and cornering when on-trail.

Instantaneous Lift

Rider-Balanced AXYS® Chassis: The AXYS® chassis for the SKS 146 provides rider balanced characteristics for the crossover rider. This sled offers both instantaneous lift when off-trail in the deep snow, as well as smooth handling and cornering when on-trail. The rider is placed into a balanced position on the sled so it rides flat through the corners. When the trail gets rough or the rider jumps off into the powder, rider balance enables the rider to move back and make the front end light to climb up on top of the snow or the moguls. Purpose-built for crossover riding; Provides improved sidehilling & faster, easier climbing; Upon acceleration, sled gets instantaneous lift & stays on top of the snow; Aluminum overstructure is lightweight & durable for all types of riding
IGX 146 Rear Suspension: The IGX – Ideal Geometry Xover – Rear Suspension delivers a smooth ride and outstanding handling on all terrain and in all snow depths and conditions. IGX Rear Suspension features optimized geometry to control pitch; Minimal bottoming & drag off-trail; Rail beam is tipped for optimal performance
Proven 800 Cleanfire® H.O. Engine: Developed in conjunction with the AXYS platform, the proven 800 Cleanfire® H.O. Engine delivers +10% increase in power-to-weight ratio and quicker throttle response to generate instantaneous lift. The integrated mounting position optimizes the balance of the chassis. Featuring: Grooved piston for improved durability and engine life; 3-stage electronically-controlled exhaust valves for increased power and responsiveness; Electronic oil pump for reduced throttle effort and improved durability; Thermostat with bypass warms up to operating temperature 40% faster and improves durability; High-efficiency intake and exhaust for improved breathability, which increases power; Exclusive VForce Reeds for more power and improved reed life; Lightweight crankshaft that's more durable, 2.5 lbs lighter and has 25% less inertia
3-Stage Electronically-Controlled Exhaust Valves: Valve operation increases power, responsiveness & efficiency; Ensures the most effective exhaust evacuation; Precise operation helps optimize fuel burn
Electronic Oil Pump: Precise oil delivery reduces throttle effort; Reliable oil delivery for best performance & improved durability; Dependable oil delivery in all riding conditions
High-Efficiency Intake and Exhaust: Improved breathability; Less Restriction = More Power; Optimized airflow enhances fuel burn & exhaust evacuation
VForce Reeds: Petal design optimizes airflow to produce more power; Design enhances power across the power band; Reduced reed petal wear produces extended reed life
Lightweight Crankshaft: Low-inertia crankshaft enhances class-leading power-to-weight ratio; 2.5 lb. lighter + 25% less inertia = Better Acceleration; Design also increases durability; Proven in Polaris Racing sleds since Model Year 2014
800 H.O. Grooved Piston: Exhaust side grooves improve oil distribution; Enhanced oiling improves piston & cylinder durability; Design reduces friction & wear, improves efficiency & power
2.25" Peak Track: 2.25" deep lugs feature a variety of designs & are positioned for optimized traction; Peak track delivers outstanding traction in deep powder & in low-snow conditions or on-trail; Spacing & positioning of lugs produces the most effective traction in all snow conditions; Rigid lug support columns enhance traction in soft & hard-pack snow; Stiff outer lug bars provide better lateral control for improved handling
Chaincase Drive System: Strong, proven & reliable drive system; Outstanding efficiency & durability; Delivers reliable operation in all snow & riding conditions
Walker Evans® Piggyback Clicker Shocks: The Walker Evans® Piggyback Clicker Shocks with compression adjusters and remote reservoirs offers the best performance across the broadest range of conditions.
Lightweight: The 800 SKS 146 is lightweight AND rigid, so rider inputs and power are transferred with maximum efficiency, and the sled is easy to maneuver in deep snow and accelerates fast on the trails. Design optimization software results in lean, strong construction of the chassis; The weight of every component & sub-system is minimized without compromising strength or performance; At 456 lb. the 800 SKS 146 on the AXYS platform is lightweight & strong

Rider Balanced™ Control

AXYS® Body Panel Design: The compact AXYS body design 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. Paneling out compromises control & can occur on steep inclines & while carving. AXYS narrow ergonomic design avoid paneling out; AXYS bodywork fuels rider confidence, provides a larger “sweet spot” for meadow riding; With weight on skis & track, rider input is optimized & rider feels the greatest control of the sled
Narrow, Adjustable Front End: Same narrow 39"-41" adjustable front end as the PRO-RMK; Ideal for setting up for more stability or ultimate performance while tree-riding and boondocking.
Forged Aluminum A-Arms: Efficient 1-piece design reduces weight & improves optimal strength; Improves suspension performance & sled handling; An innovative industry-first from Polaris; Design reduces unsprung mass, resulting in improved ride quality & increased maneuverability
PowderTrac™ Hybrid Running Boards: The PowderTrac Hybrid running boards offer optimized design with 56% open space for maximum snow clean out while maintaining extreme strength. Designed to serve the needs of riders on- & off-trail; Efficient design delivers maximum strength & snow clean-out with 56% open space; Front is wide & flat for foot comfort & stability; rear has tapered, dual-angle design for mobility & snow clearance

Rider Centric Comfort

AXYS® Performance Seat: The AXYS Performance Seat provides the ideal mix of comfort and support for seated riders, and its design provides standing riders with the greatest room to move. Seat design is narrower in front to provide greater stand-up maneuverability; Seat is light, comfortable & uses a high-performance seat foam; Seat top features a gripper material that helps keep a seated rider in place
