2018 Ski-Doo MXZ® Blizzard Ice Ripper XT 1.25 Rotax® 850 E-TEC® REV Gen4 Black & Sunburst Yellow

Ski-Doo Blizzard sleds have been on the cutting edge of performance and handling since the 1970s, and with the REV Gen4 platform, Rotax 850 E-TEC, Pilot TS skis and Ice Ripper track, this model carries on the legend.

• ROTAX 850 E-TEC ENGINE

The most powerful 2-stroke engine in the industry.* It pumps out 10 more horsepower (165 hp) than its predecessor, but its responsiveness is what really shines. With the new pDrive primary clutch, it’s 30% quicker responding than the 800R E-TEC giving you the instant control you demand.

• REV Gen4 PLATFORM

Created with the Rotax 850 E-TEC engine to be the ultimate handling trail snowmobile. The 4th generation of the REV Gen4 platform is designed around aggressive trail riders with a narrow, compact package giving the rider more freedom to move and influence the sled. More centralized masses (especially side-to-side), light weight and industry-leading suspensions make the vehicle ultra responsive.

• PDRIVE CLUTCH

A major factor in the quickness of REV Gen4 sleds is the new pDrive clutch. Fast and friction-free dual rollers transfer torque in place of traditional sliding buttons on this 100% new clutch. The oversize rollers with needle bearings, wide flyweights and shaft-on-shaft design emphasize smooth operation and long life. Ultra-responsive shifting, impressive RPM consistency and 2.8 lb./ 1.3 kg lighter than the TRA VII.

• RMOTION 129 REAR SUSPENSION

THE standard for control, capability, comfort and adjustability – with added traction, better braking and more bump filtration in 129-inch (327 cm) version. Separate spring and shock dynamics, plus the most rising-rate/progressive motion ratio in the industry give the rMotion suspension its supple ride in small bumps with added capability in large ones. Easy adjustments for shocks, springs and coupling block.

• ICE RIPPER XT TRACK

A derivative of the RipSaw track with carbide studs embedded in track lugs for added grip in icy conditions.

• RAS 3 FRONT SUSPENSION

Similar geometry and design to the stable and precise RAS 2, optimized for the REV Gen4 platform with 1 in./25mm added suspension stroke and .7 lbs (3,2 kg) reduced weight vs. RAS 2. Even more precise with rack steering system that eliminates all bump steer.

• PILOT TS ADJUSTABLE SKIS

With the Pilot TS ski, you can dial-in ski bite for conditions or your riding style by turning a knob on the ski leg. It raises or lowers the ski runner over a range of .5 in. (12.5 mm). This thin runner and new square keel design work together to make darting a thing of the past.

• ERGO-STEP SIDE PANELS

Design enables you to slide naturally to three different cornering styles, including a new, extreme-forward position.

• OPEN TOE-HOLD

Enables rider to naturally pivot their outside foot outward in aggressive cornering. (Alternative toe holds available as accessories)

• MULTI-FUNCTION ANALOG / DIGITAL GAUGE

Sharply-styled analog speedometer and tachometer are complemented by a multi-function three-zone LCD screen packed with data.
