Uh, why the hell would they put quick drive on an assault? assault is robust, tough and more stout then a pro. The chain case is FAR more durable then quick drive. My 13 pro went threw several quick drive belts, and even broke one drive shaft in half. Assault also has a stronger drive shaft then the pro... MANY differences between the two though they look similar.

So do u think the 14 assault is a good sled with a touff moter I'm asking because I have a 2011 skidoo summit I might trade for a 2014 assault with 2700 miles so should I be scared or excited I had dragon 800s and there were problems I also have a 2012 pro 600 for the kiddo and the 2018 axys 163 for my self but a back up is allways good

Pro rmk has the quick drive and is offered in a 163. The pro is more for mountain riding. Where the assault is for jumps and drops.

[@motojakers]

YES I WAS WAITING FOR THAT!!!!

[@208SledHead]

I would like Snowtrax to do a shootout of this sled, vs. HCR, vs. Freeride 54'

I bought mine RMK Assault 2015 cause i didnt want an pro, I feel like everyone rides a pro.. so i bought an Assault. And its made for jumps and drops, but im pretty sure the pro can handle jumps as well as the Assault. But still.. the Assault is a way "cooler" sled

[@tyu76540]

how is this sled for trail riding cus i got to ride long distances to the mountians

[@aarpaz]

So whats better about the PRO RMK?

[@nahbuye]

pro rmk is more hill-climb/high mark orientated. It has the quick-drive system which IMO you will see on almost all sleds made by polaris in the next 2-3 years. Pro-Rmk is available in a 163 with 2.5" track or a 155 with a 2.5, and is ~30lbs lighter
