The 2011 Polaris 600 Rush and 800 Rush snowmobiles are designed for high-performance riding, showcasing innovative engineering and advanced features.

The front suspension on these models features Independent Front Suspension (IFS) with adjustable shocks, allowing for customization according to riding conditions and personal preferences. The rear suspension uses the Pro-Ride progressive-rate system, which is designed to provide a smooth and controlled ride even on rough trails.

Ergonomically, the Rush models are crafted to offer a rider-forward position, enhancing control and comfort during extended rides. The seat design and handlebar positioning contribute to reduced rider fatigue and improved maneuverability. Additionally, both models come with a digital gauge that provides essential information such as speed, RPM, and fuel level, ensuring that riders are well-informed at all times.

The 2011 Polaris Rush models are a blend of power, agility, and comfort, making them suitable for enthusiasts who demand high performance and reliability in their snowmobiling adventures.
