Arctic Cat 650
Arctic Cat 650
The 650 H1 has carved a niche in the 650 class as a torque monster that loves to play. Oh yeah, if you need to pull your house across the yard, it can do that too!
The H1 is a single-cylinder, liquid-cooled 641cc four-stroke engine designed by Arctic Cat for massive low-end and mid-range torque. The automatic transmission will take riders through or over just about anything without so much as a whimper. The 650 H1’s are loaded for any work or play you demand of them.
The plastic bodywork calls attention to the H1 with extra-wide fenders to protect the rider from mud and water spray, “cat-eye” headlights add style and excellent illumination, and integrated full-length plastic floorboards enhance sure-footed traction. The seat is wider for increased comfort, and the seat latch allows quick removal and access to a handy tool tray.
Handling the power and torque of the H1 is an equally capable chassis that includes a double A-arm fully independent rear suspension (FIS) and double A-arm front, with preload adjustable shocks and 10-inches of suspension travel. Ground clearance is a best-in-class 12-inches which, coupled with a full-length high-density plastic skid plate, gives riders the confidence to clear large obstacles without damaging the frame.
Complementing the all-powerful goodies on this machine are features designed for comfort and convenience. SpeedRacks offer dozens of accessory attachment options. Going from 2WD to 4WD is as simple as pressing an electronic shift button, while activating the full-lock front differential requires only a flip of a handlebar-mounted lever. A 2-in. “automotive style” receiver hitch, long-range 6.5-gallon fuel tank, digital instrument pod (MPH, odometer, dual trip meters, hour meter, clock and fuel level) and Start-In-Gear capability complete the package.
Consumers that want to stand out from the rest of the crowd can opt for the flashy LE which come complete with machined aluminum wheels, a one-piece front brush guard and rear accessory bumper, a 2,500-lb. Warn winch and is available in Dark Green.
