Tech Talk
The lightweight, ultra-tough ProCross chassis delivers championship-winning rigidity and ergonomics, and it’s the foundation for the winning design. It’s matched by the combination of front Arctic Race Suspension (ARS) and the 129-in. SLIDE-ACTION Rear Suspension with Ripsaw track and 1.25-inch lugs effortlessly carves corners and swallows bumps.
Coil-over FOX® ZERO QS3R shocks on the skis and rear suspension provide premium performance in all-terrain conditions via their simplified adjustability and Kashima coating, while a four-wheel rear axle design increases track support in high-load race-like conditions.
Championship-winning power, smoothness and reliability is backed by Arctic Cat’s ADAPT CVT System. The ADAPT Drive and Driven clutches are lightweight and employ a compact design with advanced idler system. ADAPT maintains constant belt tension throughout the RPM range resulting in minimized wear and maximum throttle response throughout your drive belt’s lifespan.
Competition-calibrated components like the front FOX 1.5 ZERO QS3R ski shocks provide quick adjustability, a premium Kashima coating and rebound dial. The rear suspension gets the same shock treatment – FOX 1.5 ZERO QS3 front- and FOX 2.0 ZERO QS3R rear-track shocks both with Kashima coating.
Rounding out the premium R XC features are LED headlight, Team Arctic hand guards and a 5.5-in. race-height windshield. The performance-inspired black bodywork adds Medium Green Team Arctic graphics.
