2002 Arctic Cat Overview
Probably the biggest news from Arctic Cat is their all-new 4-stroke sled. It'suses the first 4-stroke engine by amajor snowmobile manufacturer. Ultra-clean, ultra-quiet and ultra-efficient describes the threecylinder 660ccliquid-cooled 4-stroke C TECH 4 engine. Two models, the 'Touring'and 'Trail' machines signify a new kind of snowmobiling.
Just as noteworthy is the addition of Arctic Cat's exclusive batteryless EFI system that makes itsway to the punchy 800 motor creating an ultimate twin. The 800EFI will power the ZL 800 EFI models, ZR 800 EFI models, Pantera 800 EFI and Mountain Cat800 EFI.
Engine technology is not limited to just liquids for 2002. Arctic Cat proudly welcomes the addition ofthe all-new 570fan-cooled twin as well. Producing 70horsepower with excellent low and midrange torque, the 565cccase-reed inducted twin sets the new standard for fan powered performance.It will move the two 570models, Panther 570 and the Mountain Cat 570.
The era of truly active suspension is here. Utilizing an electronicallycontrolled valve inside both shocks on the rear suspension and a microprocessor thattakes 1000readings per second. The new Smart-Ride Suspension automatically reacts to shockposition and velocity to offer a full-range of active damping. It's a new skid that handles a full rangeof trail conditions and it sets a new standard for adjustable suspension.
Moving off the trails and heading up, mountain riders get more too. High Mountain Handlebars.The new bar features a taller, semi-rigid plastic grab bar and snocross-inspired hooks for ultimatecontrol when maneuvering.
All-new Windshield-Mounted Mirrors offer an easy-to-find location that's within the typical field ofview. The new design will keep your mirrors firmly in position, regardless of terrain.
And what new lineup would be complete without a little something from the race track. Found onall ZR and ZL models will be wide running boards for un-compromised foot traction. Another cuetaken from the Sno Pro sleds found on all 2002 ZRs are the Sno Pro Adjustable Handlebarsproviding nearly-unlimited adjustability.
Arctic Cat 4-Stroke
A new kind of snowmobiling
Listen carefully. Did you hear it? The Arctic Cat 4-Stroke. They're here. An Industry first that's nowa part of the Touring and Trail lineup from a company that's known for pioneering innovations onsnow.
Both machines get their power from a three-cylinder C TECH 4 engine that featuresEFI,four valves per cylinder (Dual Overhead Camshaft), wet sump lubrication, and electric start. Anengine that's so quiet, you'll hear noises not typical from a snowmobile such as the sound of skiscutting through the snow and ice. The 660cc three-cylinder four-stroke with electronic fuel injectionruns cleanly and efficiently on straight regular-grade fuel averaging 20-25 mpg making fuel stops farless frequent.
And with 45 horsepower, its engine creates enough torque to allow for smooth acceleration up to touring speed. Its weight is comparable with othertouring class units. Simply put, it represents the future for many riders who demand the cleanest, quietest'performance' available.
Placed in the Panther chassis with a 136-inch track, the Arctic Cat 4-stroke 'Touring' model getsreverse and the innovative 2-up detachable seat that provides comfort when riding solo or with apassenger.

Arctic ZR's
Continue to stretch the lead in 2002
Each year Arctic Cat's new line of ZR's are put under a microscope by faithful consumers as well ascompetitors. What they're looking for is simple. They all want to find out what Arctic Cat took fromthe race track and made into production. They want to see technology at its finest. For consumers, it'sa measure of their fun factor.
There are now two leaders of this green brigade. The ZR 800 and the all-new for 2002, ZR 800EFI (Motorsports Networks' favorite overall sled during our 2002 testing.Producing a claimed 140 convincing ponies, both are powered by a 785cc, liquid-cooled twin with exclusiveArctic Power Valves for a broad power range and better out-of-the-hole acceleration.
The combination of Arctic Cat's industry exclusive batteryless EFI and the most powerful 800 twinavailable creates quite possibly, the ultimate trail sled. What's more, both sleds receive the new, raceinspired, wide running boards and Sno Pro handlebars that are adjustable for your comfort andindividual riding style.
These two dynamos are proudly flanked by the ZR 600 and ZR 600 EFI. Eliminating main jetchanges and automatically compensating for temperature and altitude changes, the lightweight ZR600 with batteryless EFI starts easily and requires low throttle effort. And just like the 800's, both theZR 600 and ZR 600 EFI receive the all-new adjustable Sno Pro bars and wide running boards forbetter footing.
Rounding them out is the ZR 500 - back with Arctic Power Valves (APV) that provide excellentthrottle response, increase peak performance over a wide rpm range and offer better fuel economywith reduced sound. The 500 also gets the Exhaust Pipe Temperature Sensor (EPTS). EPTS feeds exhausttemperature to the three dimensional (3D) digital ignition, which automatically uses one of fivedifferent timing maps to provide optimum ignition timing for any given temperature. The result iscrisp, consistent engine performance at all temperatures. The 500 also has new bars and wideboards.
Giving the line of ZR's their control is the AWS V front suspension and FasTrack Long-Travel Rear Suspension System with Extra Travel Tunnel(ETT)and Torque Sensing Link (TSL) plus Arctic Cat High Performance shocks, front and rear. Theseshocks feature internal floating pistons and a Melonite coating that reducesfriction.
All ZR's sport new green pans and plastic skis that are firmly set in a 43-inch stance forstability when it's time to shred. 12 gallon fuel tanks and 3-bulb halogenheadlights are also standard.

The race proven Arctic Power Valvesintroduced last year give this 600 better acceleration, mid-range power andbetter fuel economy. Their lowmaintenance is thanks to the valves self cleaning cycle not to mention the reduction of sound outputthat's achieved.
This triple rests softly on AWS V up front and FasTrack Long-Travel Rear Suspension System inback with Extended Travel Tunnel (ETT) and Torque Sensing Link (TSL) providing just the rightamount of track tension.
