2016 Arctic Cat® Bearcat 7000 XT

2016 Arctic Cat® Bearcat 7000 XT

• 7000 4-STROKE ENGINE

Part of our clean technology family, the 7000 is a 1049cc 4-stroke, renowned for easily accessible midrange power. This quick-revving triple maintains optimal power thanks to EFI and a state-of-the-art engine management system designed to reduce engine braking.

• WR3 WITH TEAM CLUTCHES

The latest technology in low gearing is ready to hit the snow. For 2016, we are introducing the Wide Range 3 (WR3) speed transmission with easy shift, raising the bar on how low gearing can go. Inside sits a large TEAM BOSS driven clutch and TEAM drive clutch. By eliminating belt skid, these clutches reduce temperature and transfer more power to the track. In addition to their incredible strength, these clutches are known for their easy and precise tuning.

• ARCTIC RACE FRONT SUSPENSION WITH ARCTIC CAT GAS IFP SHOCKS

Our uniquely wide A-arm spacing complements the chassis design, which allows us to maintain a tighter suspension. Arctic Cat® Gas IFP shocks feature a hard-anodized aluminum body, 0.5-in. shaft, aluminum internal floating piston and high-quality seals and ice scrapers. For added strength, the eyelet on the shaft end is forged, replacing the welded design.

• XTRA-ACTION REAR SUSPENSION

This wide track employs the all-new articulating rear suspension. Articulation allows the rear of the suspension to move up and down as you ride across rougher snow. It also makes your machine more maneuverable. When backing up, make sure you’re in the unlocked position. This allows the rear of the frame to lever up, rather than dig into the snow. When you want more traction, lock the skid and you’ll have a straight-rail suspension that takes full advantage of the 154-in. track.

• PROUTE - 10/8 SKIS

Ten inches at their widest, tapering to 8-in. The tipped-up design allows you to run on deep snow without trenching. Whether you’re working or touring, these skis provide effortless stability on or off trail.
