Displacement: 650cc (approximate, based on '650' designation) Performance Horsepower: Estimated 50-55 HP (typical for this class and era) Torque: Estimated 40-45 lb-ft (typical for this class and era) Fuel System Fuel Delivery: Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) Cooling System Cooling Method: Liquid-cooled Transmission Standard Type: Automatic Transmission (CVT - Continuously Variable Transmission) Drive Modes: 4x4 with likely selectable 2WD/4WD and potentially differential lock features. Features Gear Selection: Likely includes High, Low, Neutral, Reverse, and Park. Dimensions Exterior Length: Typically around 83-85 inches for this class. Width: Typically around 46-48 inches for this class. Height: Typically around 45-48 inches for this class. Weights Dry Weight: Approximately 650-690 lbs (depending on configuration). Towing Capacity: Typically 1050 lbs for ATVs of this size and era. Dimensions Ground Clearance: Generally around 10-11 inches. Safety Features Ratings Safety Standards: Compliant with ANSI standards for ATVs. Active Features Braking System: Hydraulic disc brakes (front and rear). Parking brake mechanism integrated. Passive Features Lighting: Halogen headlights, taillight, brake light. Ergonomics: Designed for rider comfort and control with intuitive handlebar layout. Technology Features Infotainment Display: Likely a digital instrument cluster displaying speed, RPM, odometer, trip meter, fuel level, 4WD indicator, and other essential information. Driver Assistance Suspension Features: Independent front and rear suspension with adjustable shocks for varying terrain and load conditions. Fis System: The 'FIS' designation might refer to an electronic power steering (EPS) system, which enhances steering effort at low speeds and adds stability at higher speeds, although EPS was less common as standard on all models by 2008. Maintenance Service Intervals Oil Change: Typically every 100 hours or annually. Specific interval for initial break-in service is crucial. Spark Plug Replacement: Recommended around 100-150 hours or as needed based on inspection. Belt Inspection: Regular inspection of the V-belt for wear, cracks, and proper tension is critical, especially before demanding use. Fluid Specifications Engine Oil: Likely SAE 10W-40 synthetic or semi-synthetic ATV specific oil. Capacity around 2.2-2.5 quarts. Transmission Oil: Likely a dedicated ATV transmission fluid or a high-quality synthetic gear oil. Capacity typically around 0.75-1 quart. Coolant: Ethylene glycol-based antifreeze mixture, typically a 50/50 mix with distilled water. Capacity around 1.5-2 quarts. Brake Fluid: DOT 3 or DOT 4 hydraulic brake fluid. Known Issues Common Wear Items: V-belt, wheel bearings, tie rod ends, ball joints, and suspension bushings are common wear items on utility ATVs of this age. Efi System: While generally reliable, EFI systems can occasionally have issues with sensors (e.g., TPS, MAP) or fuel pump performance. Cooling System: Regular flushing and inspection of hoses and radiators are important to prevent overheating. Vehicle History Brand Heritage Arctic Cat...
