Features

Legendary Performance

  • PRO-RIDE CHASSIS: The Switchback Sport is built on the PRO-RIDE chassis, the ideal choice for a nimble handling sled that is fun to ride at a great value.
  • RACE-PROVEN FRONT SUSPENSION: Lighter steering, sharper cornering - the performance and durability of the Switchback Sport were proven in extensive on- and off-trail testing.

Proven Value

  • 550 FAN ENGINE: The proven Liberty 550 snowmobile engine provides reliable performance at a great value.
  • CVTECH POWERBLOC50 / INVANCE CLUTCHING: All models that feature the 550 Fan Engine use the CVTech PowerBloc50 drive clutch paired with the Invance driven clutch. This clutching delivers smooth engagement, enhanced low-speed drivability, and quieter operation. These durable clutches have a maintenance-free design and are easy to tune while installing on the sled.

Simply Fun

  • LIGHTER WEIGHT: The Switchback Sport is lightweight and responsive with the PRO-RIDE chassis.
  • HANDLEBAR & STEERING POST ANGLE: The Switchback Sport design has a flatter steering post angle developed for sit-down and standup riding comfort and flexibility.
  • PRO-RIDE SEAT: A wider surface right where a rider sits provides enhanced comfort during long days on the snow, and the seat design allows easy transition between seating and standing positions.
