2027 Polaris Patriot 9R RMK® KHAOS® 146

Meet the 2027 Polaris Patriot 9R RMK® KHAOS® 146 in ****—a mountain sled that looks as bold as it feels the moment you grab the bars and point it toward the deep stuff. This isn’t a “follow-the-trail” kind of machine; it’s built for riders who see a blank face of snow and immediately start drawing lines in their head.



At the heart of the fun is the **Patriot 9R** twin—an **899cc**, **2-cylinder**, **liquid-cooled** **2-stroke** with **reed valve** breathing and **fuel injection**. Translation: crisp response when you want it, and the kind of punch that makes quick direction changes feel like second nature. It runs **gas / oil injected**, sips **regular fuel**, and fires up with a classic **pull start**—simple, direct, and ready when you are. Power flows through a **CVT** with **belt drive**, and when it’s time to back out of a tight spot or reset for another hit, **reverse** is there to save the day.



The personality of this KHAOS® really shows once you’re moving. The **MATRYX aluminum frame** keeps things strong and light where it counts, and with a **dry weight of 424.5 lbs**, it stays eager to react to body input. Up front, the **RMK® React™ independent A-arm** suspension brings **9 inches of travel**, paired with **WER® Velocity adjustable gas shocks with remote reservoirs**. Out back, the **RMK® KHAOS® rear suspension** delivers **16 inches of travel** with **two rear shocks**, plus a **WER® Velocity center shock**—all adjustable, all ready to be dialed to your style and your snow.



And then there’s the business end: a **146-inch Crossover track**, **15 inches wide**, with **2-inch lugs**. That setup is made for riders who want a mountain sled that feels willing to get on edge and stay there—whether you’re threading through technical terrain, setting up for a sidehill, or just hunting for that next pocket of untouched powder. The stance is adjustable too, from **36 to 38 inches**, so you can fine-tune how it behaves when the terrain gets weird and the decisions get fast.



Control points are pure rider-first. The **ProTaper® handlebar** sits in your hands with a natural feel, and the **thumb throttle** makes it easy to modulate power when traction changes by the second. Your hands stay protected with **hand guards**, and when the day turns long (or the weather turns rude), you’ll appreciate the **adjustable heated grips**. Underfoot, **skid-resistant running boards** help you keep your footing while you’re shifting weight around—because in the mountains, staying in control often comes down to the little things.



Stopping power comes from **RMK® hydraulic disc brakes**, and up front the sled rides on **Gripper® composite skis** with **carbide skags**—a setup designed to keep steering precise when you’re working the sled hard. Practical details are covered, too: a **belt guard**, **snow guard**, and **tunnel braces** are all in the mix, ready for real-world riding.



Tech-wise, it brings **RIDE COMMAND™ GPS**, plus the basics you actually want while riding: a **fuel level gauge** and a **temperature warning light**. Lighting is **LED**, and the **low tinted windshield** keeps the look sleek while giving you just enough coverage to take the edge off the wind.



Finished in ****, this 2027 RMK® KHAOS® 146 doesn’t just show up—it announces itself. If your ideal day involves steep climbs, quick pivots, and laughing inside your helmet because the sled feels like it’s reading your mind, this one’s ready to play.
