SMOOTH POWER DELIVERY

ADAPT™ CVT

The lightweight, durable ADAPT™ CVT System is the industry's only self-adjusting clutch. ADAPT has an idler bearing that keeps belt temperature down, helping belts stay tighter and giving you a smoother takeoff and consistent power delivery at slow speeds.

PLAYFUL COMFORT

CROSS-ACTION Rear Suspensio

The CROSS-ACTION skidframe creates a playful ride quality, with more weight transfer during acceleration, great performance in deep snow, and outstanding comfort and traction over big bumps in all snow conditions. Arctic Cat’s Torque-Sensing Link allows a lower and more consistent track tension, plus an adjustable spring preload and a 3-wheel rear axle assembly. The CROSS-ACTION suspension offers 13.5 inches of travel and comes in a 146-inch length with ice-scratchers.

ADAPT TO TERRAIN

Adjustable Ski Stance

An adjustable 41.5- to 43.5-inch ski stance provides the flexibility to ride in a wide variety of snow conditions. Narrow it up for better agility in the backcountry or widen it out for a flatter, more stable trail ride.

EASIER STEERING

G2 ProClimb Skis

The lightweight G2 ProClimb™ 7-inch mountain ski is tapered to stay on top of the snow. The ski works in tandem with front suspension spindles for easier steering and better deep snow performance.

RIDE BOLDLY

Reinforced Running Boards

With new rugged styling and improved durability, Riot's running boards are reinforced with an extrusion for extra rigidity and are designed to take the impact when you send it.

CONFIDENCE-INSPIRING HANDLING

ARS™ II Front Suspension

The race-proven ARS II front suspension delivers superior cornering and more ground clearance for an even better ride - on or off trail. The forged aluminum spindles are 1.5 inches taller from ski to the lower arm, and it features rigid upper A-Arms for optimal control and durability.

BRIGHTEN ANY RIDE

LED Headlight

A premium LED headlight is crucial to optimize your visibility. Equipped with both high and low beams, this headlight casts an LED light pattern with great range and width.

READY TO GO

Electric Start

The convenience of electric start is just one of the countless things that sets the Riot apart. With just the push of a handlebar-mounted button you’ll be up and moving.

VERSATILE SUSPENSION

ATAC® Adjustable On-the-Fly Suspension

The ATAC® Adjustable On-the-Fly Suspension immediately adjusts the FOX® ZERO iQS shocks with the push of a button to navigate changing snow conditions. Choose between two rider profiles, three firmness settings and engage lockout mode to ride your way.
