LEGENDARY POWER
9000-SERIES TURBOCHARGED ENGINE
The Riot 9000 doesn’t mess around. Equipped with our biggest, most powerful engine, this sled delivers max horsepower in any conditions. The 4-stroke, 998cc engine offers enough power that no other snowmobile will even come close.
Conquer whatever the terrain throws at you with our biggest, most powerful engine. The 9000-series C-TEC4 turbocharged three-cylinder engine delivers max horsepower in any conditions.
The ultimate 4-stroke powerhouse, it produces 200HP-class performance at 8750 RPM. This 998cc engine features ultra-quick throttle and turbo response from an intercooled turbo, plus a DOHC design that’s matched with 4-hole fuel injectors to create maximum performance with minimal weight.
You also get engine braking control via an idle speed circuit and engine mapping, lightweight aluminum cylinders, and a press forged crankshaft.
INTUITIVE HANDLING
ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING
With Electronic Power Steering (EPS), this is a next-level experience. Unmatched control, easier turns, and intuitive handling will upgrade your ride more than you could imagine.
SMOOTH POWER DELIVERY
ADAPT™ CVT
The lightweight, durable ADAPT™ CVT System is the industry’s only self-adjusting clutch. ADAPT has an idler bearing that keeps belt temperature down, helping belts stay tighter and giving you a smoother takeoff and consistent power delivery at slow speeds.
The uncoupled CROSS-ACTION rear suspension provides unparalleled agility from powder to hardpack. The design enables the front and rear halves of the suspension to move independently, so riders enjoy excellent cornering and bump absorption on the trail, as well as off-trail weight transfer.
The CROSS-ACTION skidframe creates a playful ride quality, with more weight transfer during acceleration, great performance in deep snow, and outstanding comfort and traction over big bumps in all snow conditions. Arctic Cat’s Torque-Sensing Link allows a lower and more consistent track tension, plus an adjustable spring preload and a 3-wheel rear axle assembly. The CROSS-ACTION suspension offers 13.5 inches of travel and comes in a 146-inch length with ice-scratchers.
CONFIDENCE-INSPIRING HANDLING
ARS™ II Front Suspension
The race-proven ARS II front suspension delivers superior cornering and more ground clearance for an even better ride – on or off trail. The forged aluminum spindles are 1.5 inches taller from ski to the lower arm, and it features rigid upper A-Arms for optimal control and durability.
The evolution of Arctic Race Suspension (ARS) is here. ARS II gives you better bite on corners and increased ground clearance to deliver more confidence- on or off trail. We made the forged aluminum spindles 1.5 inches taller from the ski to the lower arm, and gave it more rigid upper A-Arms. Plus, a revised geometry delivers a new roll-center and adjustable cambers, and a swaybar makes for flatter, more predictable cornering on hard pack trails.
EASIER STEERING
G2 ProClimb Skis
The lightweight G2 ProClimb™ 7-inch mountain ski is tapered to stay on top of the snow. The ski works in tandem with front suspension spindles for easier steering and better deep snow performance.
ADAPT TO TERRAIN
ADJUSTABLE SKI STANCE
An adjustable 41.5- to 43.5-inch ski stance provides the flexibility to ride in a wide variety of snow conditions. Narrow it up for better agility in the backcountry or widen it out for a flatter, more stable trail ride.
RIDE BOLDLY
REINFORCED RUNNING BOARDS
With new rugged styling and improved durability, Riot’s running boards are reinforced with an extrusion for extra rigidity and are designed to take the impact when you send it.
VERSATILE SUSPENSION
ATAC® Adjustable On-the-Fly Suspension
The ATAC® Adjustable On-the-Fly Suspension immediately adjusts the FOX® ZERO iQS shocks with the push of a button to navigate changing snow conditions. Choose between two rider profiles, three firmness settings and engage lockout mode to ride your way.
