Meet the 2027 Polaris Patriot 9R RMK® Factory Edition 155 2.75—a mountain sled that feels like it was built for riders who think the best trail is the one that disappears into steep timber, fresh pillows, and untouched bowls. This one shows up in ****, and it wears it with the kind of attitude that says, “Point me uphill… then point me somewhere even harder.”
At the heart of it is the **Patriot 9R**—a liquid-cooled, **2-cylinder**, **2-stroke** horizontal in-line built to bring quick response and big-mountain urgency. With **899 cc** on tap (88 mm bore x 74 mm stroke) and **electronic fuel injection** feeding a gas/oil-injected setup, it’s all about clean metering and crisp pull when you’re dancing between throttle feather and full-send. It fires by **pull start**, keeps it simple, and runs on **regular fuel**, because the mountains don’t care if your plan includes hunting down anything fancy.
Power goes through a **CVT** with belt drive, backed by a **P-22 / TEAM LWT** clutch package, and you’ve got **reverse** for the moments when your “creative line choice” puts you in a spot that needs a quick reset. The **thumb throttle** keeps control intuitive when you’re sidehilling and shifting your weight, and the whole ride feels purpose-built around rider input rather than rider compromise.
The chassis story matters just as much in the steep and deep, and this sled is built around an **aluminum MATRYX frame** with durable plastic bodywork—light, rigid, and ready to take a day’s worth of snow dust, tree taps, and the occasional “that looked softer in my head” landing. With a **dry weight of 429 lb** and an **11-gallon** fuel capacity, it’s a setup that’s eager to go explore, not eager to go home early.
Up front, the **RMK® React™ independent A-arm** suspension brings **9 inches** of travel and shock-mounted adjustment, paired with **WER® Velocity** adjustable gas shocks with remote reservoirs. Out back, you’ve got **16 inches** of travel and a two-shock rear setup, again with **WER® Velocity** remote-reservoir adjustable gas shocks, plus a matching WER® Velocity center shock. Translation: it’s built to stay composed when the terrain gets loud, and to stay tunable when your riding style (or snow conditions) demand a change.
The stance is ready for precision: adjustable ski stance from **36 to 38 inches**, with **Gripper® skis**, carbide skags, and a **ProTaper®** handlebar steering setup that keeps the feedback direct without feeling twitchy. It’s the kind of front end that helps you place the sled exactly where you want it—whether that’s threading tight trees or setting up a clean cut across a face.
Then there’s the business end: a **Series 8** track measuring **155 inches** long, **15 inches** wide, with **2.75-inch lugs**. That’s the “dig, lift, and keep going” combo for mountain terrain—built to hook up in the deep stuff, keep momentum when the slope turns serious, and give you the bite you want when the snow turns playful and vertical.
Comfort and control are handled with a focused, rider-first layout: a **one-piece vinyl seat** for a single rider, **heated adjustable grips** to keep your hands working when temperatures drop, and thoughtful protection details like a belt guard and snow guard, plus skid-resistant boards underfoot.
And when you want your ride to feel as modern as it is rowdy, it delivers: **RIDE COMMAND™ GPS**, gauge-based fuel level and temperature warnings, **LED lighting** with a tinted lens, plus **Bluetooth® audio** and **mobile app instrumentation** so your cockpit can be as connected as your ambitions are disconnected from the map.
In ****, this 9R RMK Factory Edition doesn’t just look the part—it’s a mountain machine that begs for first tracks, steep lines, and the kind of day that ends with snow in your helmet and a grin you can’t turn off.
