Vehicle Information
Polaris Playmate 164 Snowmobile (1970)
The 1970 Polaris Playmate 164 is an iconic snowmobile from its era, known for its versatility. The "164" in its name refers to its engine displacement. This model was available with various single-cylinder engine options, including 150cc (Husqvarna), 164cc, and 175cc (Polaris) versions. The 1970 Playmate was offered in two main variants: the standard Playmate and the TX Playmate, a performance-oriented version. The TX Playmate, introduced in 1970, had a very short production run, being banned from racing the same year due to safety concerns. This period also marked a significant shift in engine sourcing, with Polaris moving from European suppliers to Japanese "Star engines," offering broader displacements for TX models, ranging from 292cc to 436cc.
