2018 Arctic Cat® Norseman 6000 ES

• NEXT-GEN BODY PANELS

Arctic Cat’s Next-Gen body panels are designed to seamlessly cut through the air with as little atmospheric tension as possible. With only a quarter-turn of the two quick-release tabs, the side panel comes off and provides easy access to the engine compartment for general maintenance.

• 6000 C-TEC2 ENGINE WITH DSI

This 599cc 2-stroke DSI is the unmodified version of the engine that’s been launching Team Arctic down the racetrack since 2012. This quick-revving, 125-class horsepower C-TEC2™ power mill is the product of a world-class engine assembly plant — ours. Whether you’re riding a ZR® an M or a Crossover, the 6000 is one of the most satisfying engines found in a snowmobile.

• ARCTIC DRIVE SYSTEM WITH TEAM RAPID RESPONSE DRIVE AND TEAM RAPID RESPONSE BOSS DRIVEN CLUTCHES

The Arctic Drive System™ features a lightweight magnesium chaincase. The design incorporates a large TEAM® driven clutch and TEAM drive clutch. By eliminating belt skid, these clutches reduce temperature and transfer more power to the track. In addition to their incredible strength, these clutches are known for their easy and precise tuning.

• ARCTIC RACE FRONT SUSPENSION

Our uniquely wide A-arm spacing complements the chassis design, which allows us to maintain a tighter suspension. Arctic Cat® Gas IFP shocks feature a hard-anodized aluminum body, 0.5-in. shaft, aluminum internal floating piston and high-quality seals and ice scrapers. For added strength, the eyelet on the shaft end is forged, replacing the welded design.

• XTRA-ACTION REAR SUSPENSION

This articulating system allows the rear of the suspension to move up and down as you ride across rougher snow, making your machine more maneuverable and more versatile. Backing up in the unlocked position allows the rear of the frame to lever up, rather than dig into the snow. For more traction, just lock the skid and you’ll have a straight-rail suspension that takes full advantage of the track.

• POWER SPORT GAUGE

All the information. All at your fingertips. There’s an odometer, trip meter, speedometer, engine hour, clock, fuel level indicator, reverse and warning lights, keeping you in tune with your machine.

• 154-IN. COBRA TRACK WITH 1.6-IN. LUGS

The 154? Cobra track’s cupped lug design delivers superior handling, acceleration and braking in loose snow conditions. Its traction teeth add extra grip on hard-packed surfaces. The 1.6? paddles provide extra traction when you venture off trail.

• 12V OUTLET

Need to charge your phone or another electrical device? We've got you covered. Just plug in and power up while you ride.

• ELECTRIC START

This is just the thing for consistent, reliable starting. A simple turn of the key is all you need to get up and running.

• HAND & THUMB WARMERS

Say goodbye to cold hands. Our hand and thumb warmers provide plenty of warmth and comfort on long rides.

• PROUTE - 10/8 SKIS

10? at their widest, tapering to 8?. The tipped-up design allows you to run on deep snow without trenching. Whether you’re working or touring, these skis provide effortless stability on and off the trail.

• 17" HIGH-HEIGHT WINDSHIELD

The extra-high windshield tames the wind out in the great white open.
