Arctic Cat TRV Plus Two-Seater ATV Overview
|
There is
nothing better than sharing the ATV experience
with a friend or family member. The
2008 Arctic Cat TRV 500 & 650 Plus (Two
Rider Vehicle) pioneered the concept of
an ATV built to carry two riders in tandem.
The best 3-in-1 ATV on the market allows
you to ride tandem, remove the seat and
replace it with a SpeedRack, or for tougher
chores, add a heavy-duty cargo box.
The 2008 Arctic Cat TRV
Plus ATV has numerous features to ease riding
convenience. Chief among them is a two-up
seat with cushioned seat back for legal
trail riding. Improved ergonomics and an
easy pin-pull removal system allow you to
transform the TRV into a single-rider vehicle.
If you choose to leave it in the single
rider mode, a rear SpeedRack is available
as an accessory from your authorized dealer.
Passengers will appreciate
integrated footrests for smooth and secure
footing. Likewise, the foot brake system
incorporates a remote reservoir master cylinder
for improved feel, and is complemented by
floating brake calipers for added value.
Up front you’ll notice
all 2008 Arctic Cat TRV’s take styling
cues from the Cat Family for a great look.
The front and optional rear SpeedRacks have
a contoured shape and attachment mounting
positions for a multitude of accessory options.
An integrated winch mount makes installation
of your future winch a snap due to the location
of the winch components. A digital instrument
pod displays important operation information
(MPH, odometer, dual trip meters, hour meter
and clock).
An electronic 2WD/4WD switch
makes going in/out of 4WD as simple as pressing
a button. The same is true for the simple
electronic choke system (500, 650 H1) or
Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) found on
the new 700; Start-In-Gear ability and single
lever hand operated hydraulic disc brakes.
For 2008, the Arctic Cat
TRV family comes with three durable power
options. First is the liquid cooled 500
cc four-stroke engine, next is the torque-tuned,
650 H1 powerplant, and lastly the new powerhouse
700 EFI. All engine options have a Duramatic
automatic transmission and Hi-Lo range.
The double A-arm front suspension and fully
independent rear suspension (both with five-position
spring preload adjustment) deliver 8 inches
of travel and keep the ride firmly planted
and comfortable. And 10 inches of ground
clearance helps you clear nearly all trail
obstacles.
Other premium features include
25-in. Goodyear Rawhide RS tires, zero-maintenance
suspension bushings, sealed driveshafts,
a new, larger 6.5-gallon gas tank, and durable,
full-length plastic skid plate.
