I heard on here, (snow and mud) that the new polaris pro's are falling apart. too light weight. broken running boards.lets put it this way. skidoo 154 says offical dry weight of 464 polaris pro rmk 155 says estimated 431, so thats 33lbs, but also is estimated, so really i bet its a bit more. the skidoo has a 2.5" 16" wide track while the polaris has a 2.4" 15" wide, giving the skidoo much better traction on the snow.
Ive lined my 2011 154 against 2 different 2011 Pro RMK 155, and i am yet to loose doing a pull up any grade of hill deep or packed. one RMK also has some work done to it, and i only have the 2.25" track. I am not taking away that polaris did good and built a lighter machine, but in real world conditions, the Polaris is yet to out to the skidoo in the steep and deep in stock form. im not trying to feed you a pile of crap, im talking personal experiences of me and my riding partners, and im sure more will tell you the same thing all day long.
Also if the skidoo has a wider track and is 154" thats equivilliant to what ? a 159 x 15" approx.?
