Description
Dressed in ****, this 2027 Ski-Doo MXZ® X-RS 850 E-TEC® 137 1.25 looks like it’s already halfway down the trail before you even thumb the throttle. It’s a purpose-built **trail** sled with a **performance** attitude—clean, sharp, and ready to turn a long winter into a highlight reel.
At the heart of it is a **Rotax® E-TEC** twin: a **liquid-cooled**, **2-cylinder**, **2-stroke** **horizontal in-line** engine displacing **849 cc** and putting out **165 hp**. Feed it **premium** fuel and let the **gas / oil injected** setup and **fuel injection** handle the details while you focus on the fun part—getting to the next corner first. Hit the **electric start**, and when it’s time to back out of a tight spot or shuffle around at the trailhead, **reverse** is there to keep things effortless.
Power delivery feels immediate and smooth thanks to the **CVT** and **pDrive** clutching, with **belt** drive doing the work between engine and transmission and out to the rear. The control scheme stays classic and intuitive—**thumb throttle**, **rack & pinion** steering, and a handlebar feel that encourages you to pick a line, commit, and then pick an even better one the next turn.
The ride is built around the **REV Gen5 aluminum** frame—light, rigid, and ready for aggressive trail inputs. Up front, **RAS RX** independent double A-arm suspension gives you **11 inches** of travel, supported by **KYB PRO** **adjustable gas** shocks with **coil-over** design. Out back, the **rMotion X** rear suspension adds **11.5 inches** of travel, also on **KYB PRO** adjustable gas shocks (rear and center), with **shock-mounted adjustment** so dialing in your feel doesn’t turn into a garage project. From chatter to bigger hits, the setup is made for riders who like to stay on the gas.
Cornering confidence comes from the stance and the details: **Pilot™** skis paired with **dual carbide** skags, a **front stabilizer bar**, and a planted footprint that helps the sled track cleanly through the kind of sweepers that make you laugh inside your helmet. And when your “that was perfect” moment becomes “oh wow, that tightened up,” you’ve got **Brembo®** braking with a **hydraulic disc** rear brake and **adjustable** braking feel to bring everything back under control.
Out back, the **RipSaw** track measures **137 inches** long by **15 inches** wide with **1.25-inch** lugs—an all-around trail-friendly bite that hooks up when you roll on and stays predictable when you’re carving. With a **dry weight of 504 lb** and a **9.5-gallon** fuel tank, it’s the kind of sled that feels eager without feeling fragile—ready for big days and bigger grins.
The cockpit is rider-focused and clean: a **one-piece vinyl** seat for a single pilot, **heated, adjustable** driver hand grips with **rubber** grip material, and **hand guards** to keep the cold and wind from stealing your concentration. Practical touches like the **tinted LED** lighting, gauge-based **fuel level** and **temperature** warnings, and security via **DESS** engine immobilizer round it out. Add in skid-resistant running boards, plus protective pieces like the **belt guard**, **clutch guard**, **snow guard**, and **side cover**, and you’ve got a machine that feels as ready as it looks.
And yes—this one in **** has presence. It’s the kind of color that makes the sled stand out at the trailhead and look even better with a little snow dusted over it. If you’re chasing that “one more run” feeling all winter long, this MXZ® X-RS is built to deliver it—again and again.
