2019 Polaris 600 Switchback SP 144

Features

• AXYS® CHASSIS: The AXYS® chassis for the 144 platform is light and strong, offering rider balanced characteristics critical for the 50/50 rider. The rider is moved 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.
• LIGHTWEIGHT: The Switchback SP on the AXYS 144 platform is the industry-leading lightweight 50/50 crossover snowmobile. It allows you to get up on top of deep snow faster and offers quick acceleration.
• 600 CLEANFIRE ENGINE: The 600 Cleanfire® engine is part of the Polaris family of Liberty engines built in the USA. This engine is a 600cc, liquid-cooled, SDI engine that provides proven reliable performance, instant acceleration, easy starting and great response.
• AXYS® PERFORMANCE SEAT: The AXYS Performance seat utilizes a high-performance seat foam, and the seat design is narrower in front to provide greater maneuverability: The seat is lighter without compromising comfort, improved ergonomics and stability, seat top features a gripper material that helps keep the rider in place.
• POLARIS MESSAGECENTER GAUGE: Informative and easy to read, this instrumentation keeps a rider aware of sled operating conditions and provides a wealth of additional data. Easily viewable LCD screen, 4.3 in. diagonal measurement, scrolling message center keeps rider informed, increased number of tell tales by over 60%, large buttons can be operated with gloved hands, brightly lit display is easily readable in all light conditions
• LEFT-HAND CONTROLS: The left-hand controls feature improved ergonomics, updated styling, and enhanced hand and thumb warmer control. The controls are easy to operate with gloves on, and have an improved tactile feel
• LED LIGHTS: All models built on the AXYS® platform feature standard LED headlights. LED headlights deliver the industry’s best lighting: Nearly 1 lb. lighter and high beams are 80% brighter than incandescent lighting. Color temperature or output of the lights (the “whiteness” of light, reported in Kelvin) is 5000K, closely matching daylight. LED headlights last the entire lifetime of the sled. A major durability enhancement over traditional incandescent headlights which experience filament burn out. For constant visibility and enhanced safety, the low beams remain on at all times. Even when the high beam is activated, there is never a period of no light.
• WIND PROTECTION: The hood and windshield designs produce significantly enhanced wind protection for a rider, and the foil on the side panels further enhances protection.
• INTEGRATED STORAGE: Standard storage was designed and developed right along with the AXYS platform, so it installs securely and features seamless, integrated styling that matches the sled’s design lines: Compression-molded materials provide semi-rigid storage and enhanced styling, Sturdier zippers provide better cargo security and protection, Installs without tools.
• PREMIUM FIT & FINISH: Interfacing surfaces between body panels and components are shorter for minimized gaps: Interfaces are strategically located in recessed areas, Styling of storage elements results in clean, integrated lines, Components are engineered for functionality and styled for the best styling.
• COBRA 1.35 IN. TRACK: The Cobra 1.35 in. Track delivers excellent performance on soft, loose snow off-trail. The softer lugs feature traction teeth for better grip on hard-pack surfaces.
• POLARIS IFP SHOCKS: Built for the 50/50 rider, these Polaris® IFP Shocks provide increased handling and control both on and off the trails.
• PRO TAPER HANDLEBARS: ProTaper Handlebars are aluminum and feature a flat design with integrated mountain hooks for ease in deep snow riding and aggressive cornering
• PRO-STEER SKIS: 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.
