Default Arctic cat

I am looking at 2 arctic cats, one is a 2007 arctic cat 650H1 with 1800km and the other one is a 2005 arctic cat 650 vtwin it has the kawsawki engine in it. Which engine is better? is the H1 Fuel injected?

The 650 H1 is carbureted.

More issues with the V2 than the H1. The H1 also has a much better belt drive than the V2. I also believe that the '05's had frame cracking issues and a heavier frame was introduced in 2006. The V2 has more power.

04 was the year that had the cracking issues and it was mostly centralized to the kentucky area if i remember right. you are right that the v2 had a horrible belt drive system but it wasn't bad with some different clutch springs. both of them are good strong motors and really you can't go wrong with either. the v2 is smoother and is more torquier though.
