SERIOUS POWER
8000 SERIES C-TEC2 ENGINE
The 8000-series, C-TEC2™ twin cylinder, two-stroke engine is the heart and soul of the Norseman X. This heavy-duty engine is designed with the most difficult tasks in mind- hauling, towing and climbing through the snow.
The next-generation 8000-Series-C-TEC2 engine delivers a new level of clean Arctic Cat 2-stroke engine performance and technology. This new 794cc C-TEC2 twin features:
– Optimized cylinders, pistons, combustion chamber, flywheel, and fuel rail.
– Our signature fuel calibration strategy and Arctic Power Valve system with 3-stage control of the auxiliary exhaust ports via side valves
– ECM-controlled electronic oil pump
– Batteryless EFI
– Exhaust Pipe Temperature Sensor (EPTS)
– Knock sensor
– Engine reverse technology
This advanced technology designed by Arctic Cat and built in St. Cloud, Minnesota delivers:
– Ultra-clean, more responsive performance
– Enhanced power in the 165-hp class of engines
– Precision oil injection
– Exceedingly robust and lightweight design
VERSATILE DESIGN
ADJUSTABLE SKI STANCE
35.5-41.5-in. adjustable ski stance allows the Norseman X to adapt to whatever conditions it may face. This exceptional versatility makes it simple to switch from task to task, regardless of how different they may be.
STRIKING APPEARANCE, INTENTIONAL DESIGN
PAINTED CHASSIS
Just because the Norseman is designed to work hard doesn’t mean it can’t look good in the process. Keep your snowmobile looking top-notch with a painted chassis. Not only does it look striking, but this paint also prevents corrosion, keeping your vehicle in excellent condition over time and reducing standard wear-and-tear.
SMOOTH PERFORMANCE
ADAPT CVT SYSTEM
With its lightweight, narrow design that increases performance and belt life, as well as the industry’s only self-adjusting clutch, the ADAPT™ CVT system provides better throttle response, smoother power delivery, and a ride like no other.
The XTRA-ACTION Adjustable Rear Suspension is built to tackle any challenge or condition you face. The adaptable design can be locked for increased traction while towing heavier loads or unlocked for improved flotation when backing up in deep snow.
READY TO GO
PUSH-BUTTON ELECTRIC START
The convenience and ease of electric start lets you get up and moving right away.
