2015 Arctic Cat XF 8000 Limited Key Features:
Arctic Race Front Suspension
Tall, lightweight ski spindles and widely spaced A-arms provide great torsion rigidity and strength. Angling the shock load back toward the rider's mass, results in optimal caster/camber to improve comfort and cornering. FOX FLOAT® 3 shocks and a sway bar provide excellent control and handling.
Slide-Action Rear Suspension™
Slide-Action maintains a free-acting front arm while coupling under torque over bumps, and during aggressive cornering and acceleration. As the rear transfer blocks are engaged, the front arm follows the bumps, keeping your skis firmly planted as your 137-in. track propels you down the trail.
8000 2-Stroke Engine
160-class HP makes it the most powerful 800 engine in the industry. It features a lightweight, quick-revving crankshaft, twin spark plugs per cylinder and weight-saving engine reverse technology. The engine knock sensor provides octane recognition, giving you more fuel options.
ProCross™ Chassis
Featuring a tapered 2-piece tunnel (narrow at the top, wider at the bottom) this design is the foundation of our performance sleds’ superb ergonomics. A forged steering housing ties together many of the load-bearing chassis components.
Deluxe Digital/Analog Gauge
The deluxe gauge lets you choose between digital and analog speed and tachometer readouts. There’s also an odometer, two trip meters, engine hour meter, reverse indicator and warning lights.
Side Panel Vent
New for 2015, this vented side panel increases the airflow to the clutches to reduce drive belt temperatures for optimum performance.
ProCross™ Front Bumper
These lightweight aluminum bumpers add superior protection and a bold, stylish look. They are scratch resistant and have a powder-coat finish.

Quotes
“For the new model year, Cat segmented its crossover machines into the XF ProCross and XF ProClimb categories: The ProCross-based crossovers are for riders who stick primarily to trails but want the extra track length either for comfort or for occasional forays into the backcountry. The ProClimb machines Cross Country and High Country models are for the 50 percent-plus off-trail crowd.” ----- SnowGoer
