Arctic Cat 400 4x4 ATV Overview
|
The 2008
Arctic Cat 400 4x4 Auto is the lowest priced
ATV in the Arctic Cat line-up with 2WD/4WD
with front differential lock. This macho,
rugged machine can perform any task asked
of it and still want to go hunting, fishing,
or camping.
Powered by a torquey 376
cc, air/oil cooled four-stroke engine with
temperature-controlled fan and Auto Electronic
Choke for simple “one touch”
starting, the fully independent, double
A-arm front suspension eats up gnarly terrain
and like the rear suspension features preload-adjustable
shocks.
This best-in-class 400 is
equipped with redesigned slimline SpeedRack
featuring smaller diameter tubing to reduce
weight while the contoured shape and accessory
attachment mounts lower the height of the
rack. The 400 also receives a full-lock
front differential (with a convenient handlebar-mounted
lever), floating brake calipers, a redesigned
hydraulic foot brake system with remote
fluid reservoir, and a heavy-duty rear axle.
Other premium features include
a 2-inch “automotive-style”
receiver hitch, handlebar-mounted electronic
2WD/4WD switch for quick shifts, 25-in.
Goodyear Rawhide RS tires, and large 6.5-gallon
gas tank. And there is the best-in-class
12” ground clearance, rack capacity
(100 lbs front/200 lbs rear), and 10”
of suspension travel.
Adding convenience to the
400 4x4 Auto are features like Start-In-Gear,
zero-maintenance suspension bushings and
sealed driveshafts, a full-length plastic
skid plate that glides over rough terrain
with single-lever, hand-operated hydraulic
disc brakes (front and rear), and a digital
instrument pod with 14 indicators such as
speed, odometer, dual trip meters, hour
meter, clock, and fuel level.
No matter where you ride
or why you own an ATV, the 400 can be custom
tailored to meet every demand. Arctic Cat
– More To Go On.
