Default ThunderCAT Owners!!!!!

Just went to my local dealership and checked out the CAT.... That's one big Azz machine. Noticed the speedometer reads 110 mph. How much can the Big CAT get up to????? For $10,500 I was curious... Thanks for the info. My R1= 184mph. Raptor 660=87mph, KTM 525sx 80mph, Can-Am Spyder=Unknown. Only fair to give information about the (4) Four-Horsemen.... As I call them.

I think it is speed limited to 84 or something like that. Plenty fast for anything most people would need it for. Don't know of any trails that would allow that speed.

Its governed to 82 or 84, they have all the low end and mid range get up and go you could ever ask for, i raced my friends 2006 Raptor 700 and I can smoke him out of the hole no matter what he does and mid range is about the same that would be 60mph on up is about the same, but in a drag race where you are at a dead stop and you hit it the T-Cat will smoke the raptor, I think the raptor might have more top end but it cant be bye much, my friend was kind of disappointed in his raptor when my utility quad beat him and then stayed next to him at mid range to top end, and the raptor is not a slow machine at all.

I noticed your exhaust mod on your thunder cat did it help the back pressure.Also what does it sound like.

That youtube video is fake. No Thundercat is going to go that fast unless its dropped out of a plane.

That was more like a Thunder Cat snowmobile, you can tell by the speedometer gauge and the black around it.

That is not a 4 wheeler. Maybe a snowmobile...but that speedo climbs really fast even for a snowmobile. Snowmobile on a jack stand?

Nope thats how they really are, my dad has a 900 ThunderCat and we use to have an 800 pantera that had the ZRT 800 motor and thats how they climb, and thats stock by the way, my mod 600 ZRT is quiker up to 70 then the T-Cats or 800s but once I hit 70 they blow by like im standing still. They will do 130 on radar gun and the needle will rap around to the A on cat and still go with a tone of torque, I have had it this far and decided that I was going fast enough, they will wrap around almost back to 0. Thats why cats triples are famous and still whamp everything new, This is the reason they named the ATV the Thundercat because they are the biggest fastest thing out there, except the sleds whamp more than the ATVs, on that pantera we had with me my dad and my bro on it, it would pull the skies off the ground at 50mph and hold them to 80mph and thats a long track pantera. The T-Cat will actually do 125-130mph stock on the radar gun, when people say that there 600 or even 900 twin went 125 or faster they are full of ****, most twins fall off at about 115-120 on the speedometer thats not on the radar, radar would be more like 105-110 and thats all the twins, they call the speedometer a dream meter because they are not that accurate after about 60-70. But the T-Cat and an 800 ZRT will do a solid 125-130 on radar gun, and thats in 1 mile. The ZRT 800, T-Cat 900, and T-Cat 1000 are all the same motor with a different boar and clutching and thats it, they are all identical motors other than boar and clutching, and being the 800 revs higher,after about 5 miles the 800 will take out a 1000 T-Cat.
