I'VE SEEN THE 2006S
 
the cat lineup looks great for 2006. the 50 and 90 have been changed, a sport and a utility model of each are available. the 250 and 300 are gone. 2 new 250s takes the place. one 250 is a sport model called the dvx 250 and the other has racks and a speedometer. both i believe are fully automatic and priced at 3499. both look like big winners. the 400 plastic is a little different, looks very cool. 500 and 650 look the same. side by side prowler is impressive, has the 650 engine. 2 rider back seat is removeable this year and a rack or a cargo box can fit in. also available is 2 tony stewart #20 nascar edition atvs. 400 and a dvx 400, both are orange with decals all over, they look very nice. all in all, the best cat lineup to date and dealers are very happy.

sorry, no pics. arctic cat website still has 2005s, maybe they will change that soon. anyway, the 250s are like the polaris, made in taiwan but look great and have held up well in testing so im told. no fuel injection on any models. the prowler side by side uses the h1 engine made by cat. the 250 will sell alot because it is simple and cheap to operate. the 400 looks awesome. i have the brochure so if you guys have any questions, i will try to answer for you. lvozark

Thanks LVOZARK. Does the TRV have the new body style and a diff locker? Also, does the seat just easily remove for a regular rack as well as a dump box? Thanks so much.

no diff lock on the trv, but the body looks like a 05 500 and 650. trv is also available as a 400 as well as a 500. the seat can be changed to a speed rack or cargo box in an instant. very versitile idea.

06's are up on the web site. They look pretty nice. Arctic Cat really stepped it up in 06.

The dvx has all the new shocks,
all 500's get a new big bore high flow stainless steel exhaust system (H1 exhaust) makes a huge difference, a different bike with this.
The H1 gets an all new secondary clutch which upshifts and back shifts very aggressively, now the bike has a hard hitting acceleration through the midrange that it was lacking.
The v-twin gets 4.0 diffs (lower ratio) which will increase performance substantially and be easier on belts, top speed is said not to be affected because on a flat pull the 04, 05 did not fully shift out anyway.
the orange color is awesome.

yort,

Where are you getting your info on the H1's secondary clutch, the people on arctic chat have not heard of this.
Is that a definite, or just a rumor.


Thank you
