Polaris made some massive changes to their performance lineup last year when they did away with the long-standing 500cc Predator and replaced it with an industry-standard-displaced 450cc, the KTM- powered Outlaw model (the MXR). For 2009 the MXR received a full makeover which not only shed nearly 7 full pounds off the overall weight, they lowered center of gravity, increased mass centralization, and completely redesigned the aesthetics.

Features

• New Styling: Redesigned Outlaw features aggressive styling, single headlight, weight reduction and a lower center of gravity.
• 450 cc KTM Engine: Race-bred and championship-winning. Lightweight, liquid-cooled, four-stroke engine features a 39-millimeter Keihin FCR-MX carburetor.
• FOX Shox: Premium Fox Podium X shocks in front and rear, deliver superior stability and performance on sand and track.
• 5-Speed Transmission: Five-speed transmission with reverse and industry-leading, self-adjusting hydraulic clutch for smooth shifting.
• Aluminum Bumper: New aluminum front bumper gives a great look and excellent protection.
