2007 Arctic Cat F1000

March 28, 2008
2007-arctic-cat-f1000.jpg

The F1000 is the newest and by far the best of the Arctic Cat F series. And that certainly reflects the price, but at least now you know you’re spending that money on something that you’ll be happy with. Most of the problems pointed out in the previous F series reviews have been taken care [...]

2007 Arctic Cat F5

March 28, 2008
2007-arctic-cat-f5.jpg

Which one’s better – the 2007 F6 or the 2007 F5? It’s obvious that the F5 is even slower than the F6, but as I said in the previous review if you’re looking for a speed sled you should definitely be looking for some other Arctic Cat and not the F series. You can get [...]

2007 Arctic Cat F6

March 28, 2008

I’m sure you’ve already figured that the F6 is the predecessor of the F8. There’s also an F5 model that we’re gonna talk about in the next review just to point out the differences and figure out which one’s the best choice. So, the difference between the F8 and the F6 is not that big [...]

2007 Arctic Cat F8

Like most of the Arctic Cat sleds the F8 is a pretty good one, too. It looks tiny because of the short track, but it actually performs very well on the trails and especially in the deep snow (believe it or not). Handling and suspension are excellent. Bumps are no longer something to be afraid [...]

2007 Arctic Cat Jaguar – Z1

March 28, 2008
2007-arctic-cat-jaguar-z1.jpg

The Jaguar – Z1 is all it’s talked up to be. Comfortable after hours of riding, fast enough as a trail performance sled, handles great on trail and holds straight through the flat out straightaways. The power of this thing is awesome – mainly because of the 4 stroke engine, but the most noticeable thing [...]

2007 Arctic Cat M8 162

March 28, 2008

This is one fast machine we’re talking about. The thing climbs like no other with any loss of power or torque. It has the most unbelievable flotation through rough terrain. The M8 is extremely reliable and you can depend on it getting anywhere you want it to. The comfort level is great and the handling [...]

2007 Arctic Cat Z 570 LX

March 28, 2008
2007-arctic-cat-z-570-lx.jpg

The 2005 Z 570 wasn’t really the perfect snowmobile. Well, the 2007 edition isn’t that much different. Many of the problems still remain and I really can’t believe 2 years are not enough for Arctic Cat to do something about them. The comfort level still isn’t that great, you certainly won’t be happy with the [...]

2006 Arctic Cat Bearcat WT

March 28, 2008
2006-arctic-cat-bearcat-wt.jpg

The Bearcat WT is one big, heavy snowmobile. Big and heavy usually means slow, but this
4 stroke engine sled has plenty of torque in it. Well, it really is not the perfect racing sled, but it sure gets you where you want to go. It’s also extremely comfortable sled. And very reliable. It’s probably the [...]

2006 Arctic Cat CrossFire 7

March 28, 2008
2006-arctic-cat-crossfire-7.jpg

The Crossfire 7 is overall a sweet package for just about any riding style. Cruising the trails or busting powder, this machine does it all quite well. It’s light and powerful and I think you’ll enjoy riding it very much. It’s pretty comfortable although it takes some getting used to. It’s quite easy to control, [...]

2006 Arctic Cat Family Trail Z 570 LX

March 28, 2008
2006-arctic-cat-family-trail-z-570-lx.jpg

This is one great first sled to have. Not just because of the way it performs, but also because of the price. You don’t want to risk it with expensive, fast sleds before you really learn how to control them. The Family Trail Z 570 LX is a nice way to start. It’s one very [...]
