Probably the first feature Cat owners will notice when they hop on the new M 800 Sno Pro 153 is a narrower ski stance over last year’s model. For 2013, Arctic Cat reduced the ski stance to 38 inches and it can be adjusted to 39 inches, if so desired. Cat says this modification improves the sidehilling capabilities of the sled and makes it more manoeuvrable in the deep snow. All of the models in the new M series lineup—except for the 800 HCR H.O.—have a narrower ski stance.
The M 800 SnoPro 153 is built on Arctic Cat’s ProClimb chassis. With its triangulated upper spar assembly design, the ProClimb chassis is designed to be strong, durable and lightweight. The SnoPro utilizes Arctic Cat race suspension and M rear suspension for precision handling and a smooth, comfortable ride.
At the heart and soul of the M 800 SnoPro 153 is a 160-class horsepower two-stroke engine. It is also equipped with the Arctic Drive System, which is a chain-drive system that is engineered to offer reliable, consistent power and performance.
Other features of the new M 800 SnoPro 153 include a mountain seat, telescopic handlebars and a PowerClaw track with 2.6-inch paddles for chewing through the deep powder.
