2018 Ski-Doo RENEGADE X-RS 850 E-TEC

Description

With its longer track boosting traction and unstoppable suspension performance from race-sled-spec KYB Pro shocks, the Renegade X-RS sled is a hard-core riders' dream – especially with the REV Gen4 platform and Rotax 850 E-TEC engine combination.

• MORE POWER YOU CAN FEEL

  The most powerful 2-stroke engine in the industry.* It pumps out 10 more horsepower (165 hp) than its predecessor, but its responsiveness is what really shines. With the new pDrive primary clutch, it’s 30% quicker responding than the 800R E-TEC giving you the instant control you demand. *Observed HP measured on internal dyno test in optimal conditions for 2-stroke engines.

• QUICK, EFFICIENT, EASY

  A major factor in the quickness of REV Gen4 sleds is the new pDrive clutch. Fast and friction-free dual rollers transfer torque in place of traditional sliding buttons on this 100% new clutch. The oversize rollers with needle bearings, wide flyweights and shaft-on-shaft design emphasize smooth operation and long life. Ultra-responsive shifting, impressive RPM consistency and 2.8 lb./ 1.3 kg lighter than the TRA VII.

• NEXT GENERATION OF A LEGEND

  Created with the Rotax 850 E-TEC engine to be the ultimate handling trail snowmobile. The 4th generation of the REV Gen4 platform is designed around aggressive trail riders with a narrow, compact package giving the rider more freedom to move and influence the sled. More centralized masses (especially side-to-side), light weight and industry-leading suspensions make the vehicle ultra responsive.

• PRECISION FRONT END

  Similar geometry and design to the stable and precise RAS 2, optimized for the REV Gen4 platform with 1 in./25mm added suspension stroke and .7 lbs (3,2 kg) reduced weight vs. RAS 2. Even more precise with rack steering system that eliminates all bump steer.

• RIDE HOW YOU WANT

  Design enables you to slide naturally to three different cornering styles, including a new, extreme-forward position.

• LET IT HANG OUT

  Enables rider to naturally pivot their outside foot outward in aggressive cornering. (Alternative toe holds available as accessories).

• CAPABILITY, CONTROL AND COMFORT

  Provides more capability, more comfort and more adjustability. Separate spring and shock dynamics combine with the most rising-rate/progressive motion ratio in the industry to give the rMotion suspension a supple ride in small bumps with added capability in large ones. And there’s no need to be a suspension guru to enjoy the ride – with its broad sweet spot, you can set it up once and it will perform impressively in nearly every condition.

• RACE READY

  Designed for the toughest terrain racing, the X-RS package includes special features. The steering post is more forward for the most aggressive cornering and stand-up riding position. And running boards are reinforced for tough landings.

• PRO-LEVEL SHOCKS

  These shocks are standard on the MXZx 600RS race sled - so you know they're extremely capable and durable for control in the toughest conditions. Remote reservoir design for performance and they are a rebuildable/revalvable. Easy Adjust compression damping knob does not require tools; rebound adjustments are standard as well.

• ROOM TO ROAM

  Designed for aggressive stand-up riding, they are flatter for most of their length, wider and strong. Thicker aluminum sheet (3 mm vs. 1.8 mm), plus front and rear reinforcements to withstand tough landings.
