Riot 8000
Our powerful 8000-Series C-TEC2, 794cc engine, with FOX rear shocks to provide a smooth ride anywhere.
CROSS-ACTION Rear Suspension
CROSS-ACTION Rear Suspension blends the increased weight transfer of an uncoupled suspension with the optimal cornering and bump absorption of Arctic Cat’s Torque-Sensing Link™ used on our trail models.
FOX® ZERO QS3 Shocks
Easy to adjust, and built for any terrain and riding style. Our premium FOX ZERO QS3 shocks are available in 1.5- or 2.0-inch diameters.
AMS™ Front Suspension
Arctic Mountain Suspension (AMS) puts everything we learned about conquering deep snow onto your crossover Riot X.
ARS™ II Front Suspension
The new Arctic Race Suspension (ARS II) puts everything we learned about conquering tough terrain onto your Riot.
G2 ProClimb™ 7 Mountain Ski
This lightweight ski is contoured for easier steering, and integrates with the AMS spindles for better deep-snow performance.
Adjustable Ski Stance
Easily adjust your ski stance —from 42- to 43 inches on Riot and from 39.5- to 41.5 inches on Riot X — for maximum adaptability.
Reinforced Running Boards
Big air means big impact, which is why Riot's running boards are reinforced with an extrusion for added rigidity.
