2014 Polaris 800 Switchback® PRO-R ES

136 in. PRO-RIDE™ Rear Suspension

• Eliminate “spine tinglers” with the industry’s only uncoupled, progressive-rate suspension. This Polaris-exclusive design provides a bottomless ride with incredible weight transfer and unmatched fun factor. The 136 in. rail provides superior off-trail capability compared to competitive crossovers and bridges the bumps for a more comfortable ride.

800 Cleanfire® Engine

• This liquid-cooled Cleanfire® engine with semi-direct injection (SDI) deliver outstanding throttle response and instant acceleration. These powerful, efficient engines produce the impressive power-to-weight ratios that deep snow riders demand. Cleanfire® engines start easily and reliably and they calibrate automatically as the temperature and elevation change. These engines deliver impressive fuel economy in real-world riding situations, which, for Polaris riders, means aggressive, up-tempo riding, not low-rev lab conditions.

Integrated Tunnel Protection

• Integrated tunnel protection allows you to stud up to a 1.75 in. track.

Key Benefits

• Industry-leading, big-bump comfort
• Precise handling
• Superior off-trail versatility

Lightweight Silencer

• The silencer has been designed to keep noise levels and overall weight in check.

One-Piece Handlebar

• The new one-piece handlebar features clean, durable construction. It enhances ergonomics with full-length grips that improve comfort and control, and the heater elements extend to the ends of the bar for greater hand comfort.

PRO-RIDE™ Adventure Seat

• Designed for aggressive trail traction and control. Integrated tunnel protection allows you to stud up to a 1.75 in. track.
• Cobra 1.352 in. track
• Take the best seat in the house. A wider more comfortable seat that provides an ideal blend of cushion and support. The Switchback seat height also allows the rider to easily transition from seated to standing as the conditions dictate.

PRO-RIDE™ Chassis

• World’s most advanced snowmobile chassis - light, rigid and perfectly balanced for precise handling even in the nastiest terrain. The progressive-rate suspension provides a bottomless ride that allows us to run an uncoupled rail with great weight transfer for a more comfortable and fun ride. The Cobra track allows for unprecedented flotation and traction.

Pro-Steer™ Ski

• The Pro-Steer™ Ski features a reshaped keel and shortened skag for reduced steering effort. Redesigned ribs atop the ski increase torsional stiffness for more precise steering, and bosses added atop the ribs provide traction to prevent slipping when a rider steps on the ski in deep snow.

Race-Proven Front Suspension

• Unbeatable combination of PRO-RIDE™ steering and patented variable caster design eliminates bump steer. Lighter steering, sharper cornering. Developed in conjunction with the Polaris Racing program. Its performance and durability were proven in extensive on- and off-track testing, and the new IFS delivers significantly enhanced handling with flatter, more precise cornering and 20% reduced steering effort.

Right Hand Controls

• A throttle block and a separate kill switch perch can be positioned independently for improved ergos and ability to tailor your controls.

Walker Evans® Needle Shocks

• Premium shocks with compression adjusters and remote reservoirs offer the best in tunability and fade-proof performance. Unique needle design uses hydraulic force at the end of the stroke to eliminate harsh bottoming.
