2015 Ski-Doo Freeride™ 146 Rotax® 800R E-TEC®

The tMotion flexes laterally, reducing the effort to initiate a roll, due to a ball joint at the center hinge between the rear arm and drop link and split flat-tube front arms. Very progressive motion ratio makes the ride on trails even more comfortable.

Light chassis reinforced for freeriding punishment. Wide, strong running boards with extra large snow evacuation holes and extruded edge. Body panels are powderdynamically designed to slide more easily through snow, especially in deep snow manoeuvres.

Lightweight and very capable aluminum shocks. Wide range of adjustability with rebound damping adjustment and rebuildable/revalvable design.

By shortening the fiberglass reinforcing rods inside, the track’s edges flex when you carve the sled, making boondocking and sidehilling easier. It provides the flotation of a 16-in. (41 cm) wide track with the maneuverability of a 12-in. (30 cm) track.

This revolutionary direct-injection two-stroke features a stunning combination of 163.9 hp*, up to 19 mpg (12.3 L/100 km) and up to 30% less oil consumption than the 800R PowerT.E.K..

And thanks to proven E-TEC technology, it has virtually no smoke or smell – especially at start and idle – and starts on the first pull, every time.

* Result based on independent third-party dyno test

Footing is solid with running board snow evacuation holes increased by 87% over the REV-XP. The running board edge extrusion – with aggressive boot grips – is three times stronger than the REV-XP.

We designed the cockpit around mountain riders like you: the gauge is mounted flat, switches are moved to the console, buttons are shielded from accidental activation and the grab handle is rigid and shaped to your hand. Every surface of the seat is sculpted for powder gymnastics.

Easily disconnect/connect the sway bar without tools for handling preference.

Single-keel with excellent sidehilling bite, thanks to thin outer edges. Narrow and thin, yet stiff. Shorter behind its complementary spindle with flat tail for easier counter-steering and sidehilling.
