Motorhead Mark evaluates Arctic Cat’s 2017 ZR 9000 Thundercat!

[@Harpazoed]

King Cat was Awesome for its time. 4 cylinders and extremely fast for the time however it didn’t last long. But then they came out with a 3 cylinder. And that sucker was awesome. It lasted much longer.

[@camaro69green31]

Well done, Great take on this sled.

[@scotttibbitts3364]

I would love one of these babies! Just don't have the 18,000 laying around

[@robertdh685]

You and me both. Eight short years from now I can buy one. A used 2017 that is....Maybe..

[@johnschwebke4343]

U can't compare the 90 's year t-cats to this 2017 t-cat!! The newer sled would run away w it on the lake & not even close in the trees & twisties!! And I'm a big fan of the older horsepower sleds!!

[@stevenvanheel3932]

I think I would rather get the Yamaha for 13,300

[@despacito7422]

No turbo doe :/

[@dylanduffy3725]

Still can't beat the Suzuki 2 stroke triple

[@WilliamStewart1]

Dylan Duffy For the sound sure, these blow them out of the water when it comes to performance/efficiency/reliabilty though.

[@quentin3330]

William Stewart Way better for reliability. No question there.

[@kamerynhorton5305]

Power defiantly dino at 204 hp plus a Yamaha engine form only the best but rather have sidewinder

[@KP-oe8sk]

Yikes $20,000.00 PLUS . This is a great sled.Most likely a 5 YR keeper for most people.? or Sell another Body Part.!!

[@brock12892]

Put an engine like this in the YXZ 1000R please

[@ie-dt2cl]

Would run to hot

[@WilliamStewart1]

Brock1 They're already working on it, looks like the wildcat will be getting it first. Yamaha needs to either get rid of or beef up the 6 speed sequential as the clutch packs don't hold much power.

[@seanzukiwski478]

what is the price to buy one

[@corycoulter5140]

Just under 19,000!

[@seanzukiwski478]

ouch there goes the bank account

[@1kurgan142]

That price is only for the Tcat. You can buy the ZR9000 for cheaper, same engine, shorter skid and worse suspension. Or you can buy the cheapest Sidewinder from Yamaha for like 13.3.

[@oonothin]

Cory Coulter not bad

[@honestviews2817]

Or you can wait one year buy new, add the fourth wheel kit, stud it, knee pads, pay for 3 more years of warranty. For a total of 5 years of warranty. Add tax for a total of $15,486. What a difference a year makes.

[@MBTUE]

$19,000 !!!

[@quentin3330]

Yamaha engines > Suzuki engines

[@shanebarnett4249]

Quentin 33 Suzuki engines are way better my friend

[@keciahgalusha6609]

Suzuki all day

[@stephshane1]

all still take the Suzuki moter over a Yamaha any day

[@alfrede.neuman8611]

Nope....can't do it. Real Thundercat owners guts are turning at the thought of a 4-stroke Thundercat. Should have called it something else.
