I had my fill of walking out when I owned an Arctic Cat, it is one of the reasons why I went back to skidoo.



Glad you haven't had the issue yet. Funny but the most reliable machine I ever owned was a bearcat 570. That thing was bulletproof!


do unto others as you would have them do unto you

The one outfitter I work for has a Bearcat 570 and it has been pretty reliable, only issue I ever remember in it is carbs one year when he left it all summer with old untreated gas in it. And have ran their fourwheelers for 25 years, been very happy with them. But I bought a Bearcat Z1, the big fourstroke, wide track, and it was constantly broke down from the time it was almost new (I bought it used with 300 miles on it from an older lady when she and her husband decided to get a divorce shortly after buying it).
