Looking for the ultimate combination of flickable handling and bulletproof reliability? The 2015 Arctic Cat M 8000 is a rider favorite for a reason. Featuring the legendary Suzuki 800cc High Output engine—widely considered one of the most durable two-stroke powerplants ever built—this sled is ready to tackle deep powder and technical tree lines with ease.
The 153" track length is the "sweet spot" for mountain riding, offering enough flotation for the deep days while remaining incredibly agile for side-hilling and tight maneuvers.

Condition & Ride Quality
This M 8000 has been kept in great shape and is dialed in for the backcountry. The 2015 model year benefited from several factory refinements over the earlier ProClimb years, including improved front suspension geometry that makes it much easier to initiate a carve. Whether you are a seasoned pro or looking to step up your mountain game, this Arctic Cat delivers.
