Why choose between the thrills of on-trail riding and the adventure of venturing into the deep snow when you can have both? Riot blends trail and backcountry performance seamlessly for the ultimate adaptable ride.
Features may include:
A NEW BREED OF POWERThe all-new 858 two-stroke engine is designed for seamless integration into the new CATALYST platform. With an 8% increase in displacement, this engine houses an 11% increase in output over the C-TEC2 800 and weighs 4% less. It features an optimized air intake system, a new exhaust valve design for more consistent power and cleaner emissions, and an all-new crankcase for increased stroke and integrated engine mounts.
PEAK PERFORMANCE UNLOCKEDThe revolutionary CATALYST platform has been built from the ground up to optimize every aspect of your ride, so much so that you’ll feel at one with the sled. With enhanced ergonomics, a lower center of gravity, our exclusive laydown engine design, specially calibrated suspension and more, this changes everything.
CONFIDENCE-INSPIRING HANDLINGThe AWS 39 Front Suspension is engineered specifically to compliment the Riot 858. With ratio steering to reduce rider effort, you'll experience more control.
PLAYFUL COMFORTThe 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.
EFFORTLESS SUPPORTYou’ll feel the difference in every ride with premium, internal floating piston (IFP) shocks. These shocks will dampen the toughest terrain and offer increased durability, allowing you to maximize your performance.
INCREASED DURABILITYThe CATALYST platform utilizies Arctic Cat's belt drive system rather than a chain drive. This allows for enahnced durability and fewer parts in the system. The adjustable center distance allows for multiple ratio options and makes servicing simple.
READY TO GOThe convenience of electric start is just one of the countless things that sets the Riot apart. With just the push of a handlebar-mounted button you’ll be up and moving.It is also equipped with a backup manual starter.
