ARCTIC CAT M 858 ALPHA ONE 146
LIGHTWEIGHT MEETS AGILE
BY STEVE JANES
With all the potential options of engine sizes, track sizes and shock packages, there’s perhaps just too much information for a human brain to process in picking out the perfect snowmobile. Fortunately, Arctic Cat has introduced AI on its website with Find Your Ride—Arctic Cat’s guide to picking the perfect sled , to help you sort out the options and match those things most important to you with the right model.
First, where you ride: Well, let’s check the Mountain/ Backcountry box. After all, even though we do spend time on the trails, we’re looking for the best performance in technical terrain.
Next, snow conditions: This is a little more challenging. After all, snow has a tendency to change according to the temperatures and other weather factors. It may come down light and fluffy, but when the sun comes out the
snow starts to settle. The wind can make it a tad crusty. And other riders leave frozen tracks that get buried under new snow. But for the majority of the winter it has a firm base. So let’s check Dense/Wet Snow
Experience Level: We all want to think of ourselves as pretty competent on the snow, especially those of us who have been at this for a few years. So we’re naturally going to check Experienced
Riding Style: It’s all about big air, big bumps, steep hills, trees and terrain. After all, we’re just a bunch of Extreme Adrenaline Junkies
Sled Size: It’s about Horsepower, Track Speed and Suspension
Now we’ll click the button Best Match to see what AI says we’re going to be most happy riding this season. And the sled is …
RILEY KINCAID
It didn’t take AI to realize the best match would be the Arctic Cat M 858 Mountain Cat Alpha One with a 146x2.5inch PowerClaw track, AWS suspension and the AC G8 Gauge. But it’s nice to have reinforcing proof to convince ourselves it’s worth shelling out $18,999 to get the sled that’s going to deliver the maximum enjoyment this winter. It may even be worth coming up with another $300 to upgrade the suspension to ATAC so you can make onthe-fly adjustments to the shocks to dial in the perfect ride as terrain conditions change.
Cat’s new 858 engine package matched with the Catalyst platform represents an 11 percent power output increase over last year’s M 800. A new air intake system and new exhaust valve design delivers constant power and cleaner emissions. It also features an all-new crankcase for a longer stroke and integrated engine mounts.
The Catalyst platform was designed for Cat’s exclusive laydown engine design and delivers a lower center of gravity for better stability and improved rider ergonomics. The Alpha One Single Beam rear suspension is light and allows the chassis to twist through turns for effortless handling and maneuverability.
The new ACG8 Gauge is an 8-inch touch screen that includes not only all the necessary engine performance data, but also offers pre-loaded trail maps, topography and private/public land data for the U.S. and Canada.
The 146x2.5-inch track on the 858 Mountain Cat delivers power, mobility and enough traction for those deeper snow days. It is designed to increase the fun factor on the majority of winter days when the snow conditions may not be optimal for deep powder but much more conducive to turning the terrain into a technical playground.

RIDER IMPRESSIONS
A LOOK AT WHAT THE SNOWEST TEST CREW HAD TO SAY ABOUT THE ARCTIC CAT M 858
A LOOK AT WHAT THE SNOWEST TEST CREW HAD TO SAY ABOUT THE ARCTIC CAT M 858
Broc Genta— The Catalyst chassis just feels so light and just moves with your body. I feel at home when I get on the Cat. Today was the first day on the 858 … and I was very impressed.
Bruce Kerbs— I like the Alpha skid for walking through some pretty tight stuff. It keeps you up on the snow. The Catalyst chassis has a lower center of gravity that just works for technical riding. Although the Cat 858 with the 146-inch track doesn’t hook up as well as the longer tracks with deeper lugs, it’s just a fun ride. You can tell it’s a shorter track. It’s pretty nimble and feels lighter; it’s easier to throw it around. I would almost prefer to see a narrower ski stance on the 146 to make it even more nimble. In the more technical ter-
rain the 146 will tend to dig a little more and it takes a little longer to get the sled up on top of the snow.
Justin Stevens— As far as the M 858 with the 146 track, it’s a great sled and runs phenomenally. Cat has always had its performance really linear. It hits hard on the bottom with low-end torque and then lots of linear power throughout the powerband.
I used to prefer the longer tracks. I feel like they have become so much more rideable. But with the harder, crustier snow conditions and tight trees, the shorter tracks are much easier to initiate a turn.
The Catalyst sled definitely feels more nimble. When you sit on the sled, and you stand, how the running boards feel,
how the handlebars feel, it actually feels quite familiar, it feels like you’re on an Arctic Cat. But the overall body of the sled feels smaller. There’s just a lot less mass. The Catalyst is definitely an improvement over the older chassis. When you pair it with the 858 and 146-inch track, it definitely feels more nimble.
The first time I was ripping through a little drainage in actually some decent soft snow, I put it on its edge. It came up quickly and set really well and held the edge. I think I was expecting it to pull back down the hill like the older Arctic Cats would sometimes do. But it just came up and fell in its line really well.
Rhett Clark— I like the new gauge placement of the
Catalyst. It’s easy to see. The numbers are clear; it’s easy to read. The big displays are easy to see when you’re going at speed.
And I liked the platform, the stance and the height level of the bars. I like the narrow seat; it reminds me of a dirt bike. It’s easy to move around on. The running boards are great traction and the snow evacuates through them well.
In deep snow and you’re trying to turn into the hill the Cat’s Alpha One rear is super easy. The 858 is a strong engine. I was never underpowered.
Shorter tracks are a little more challenging in deeper snow. It’s harder to stop on the hill and then take off again because the tracks will dig a little more.

PERFECT FOR TRAILS & TERRAIN BACKCOUNTRY X-RS SKI-DOO
BY STEVE JANES
When your first love is blazing down winding trails but you still have a desire to explore terrain and indulge in cross-country riding, the Ski-Doo Backcountry X-RS may be the perfect snowmobile for you.
With the power option of either the Rotax 850 E-TEC or the 850 E-TEC Turbo R, the X-RS is quick, responsive and fast. The RAS X front suspension with a 39-inch ski stance is wide enough to provide stability on the trail, yet narrow enough to allow you to carve through terrain. The cMotion X rear suspension with
rail reinforcement can handle the abuse of a mogulriddled trail. KYB Pro 40 EA-3 shocks flatten out the bumps and have the adjustability to allow you to dial in the ride best suited to your riding style.
Like most great trail sleds, the X-RS comes with a lot of the same DNA that has been developed on the race track. Its durable design can withstand both the constant pounding from aggressive trail riding as well as big hits from launching off jumps.
You take these ideal trail features and combine them with
STEVE
the REV Gen5 platform and you have a snowmobile that can float through powder and navigate extreme terrain. It delivers the perfect balance that keeps it planted in the corners yet easy to put on its side when off trail. The Turbo 146 weighs in at 500 pounds—about right for the Crossover segment—while the 850 E-TEC is about 25 pounds lighter. When it comes to traction, Ski-Doo has provided several options so you can get the perfect track for the snow conditions in your favorite go-to locations. If you spend most of your time in marginal snow conditions the 146 x
15 x 1.6 Cobra or Ice Cobra tracks work the best. If you ride where the snow is a little deeper then the 146 x 16 x 2 PowderMax delivers the versatility that comes with the terrain. And if you lean more to terrain riding than trails, you can always go to the 154 x 16 x 2 or 154 x 16 x 2.5 PowderMax tracks.
The X-RS is the top-of-the-line in the Backcountry series and retails for $17,199. If you’re on a limited budget, you can always scale down a bit with the Backcountry X ($15,800) or even the Backcountry Adrenaline ($13,700).
The three most important factors in the design of a snowmobile are horsepower, handling and weight (or at least the lack of it). For lake racers, horsepower is king. For trail busters, suspension reigns. And for mountain riders, flotation keeps you on top.
However, that doesn’t mean lake racers don’t care about handling, or trail busters don’t care about the instant response that comes with light weight, or mountain riders don’t care about horsepower. Power, handling and weight are important to all…but each segment of the snowmobile industry may be willing to make compromises in one or two of the factors if it strengthens the third.
But what about those snowmobilers who don’t fit into the niche of being a lake racer, trail buster or mountain rider? What about the snowmobiler who tends to ride in marginal snow conditions but still wants the ability to take on challenging terrain when the opportunity arises?
That’s why snowmobile manufacturers have created the Crossover Segment of the market—sleds that have the topof-the-line suspension and white-knuckle power on a lightweight platform made for the mountains.
The Polaris Switchback Assault 146 does not lack power with the Patriot 9R and the Patriot Boost engine options. (You can also get it in the 850 and 650 Patriot engine pack-
ages if you don’t feel you need excessive power.)
Built with the Matryx Platform with the Matryx front suspension and IGX 146 rear suspension, the Switchback Assault 146 has a solid foundation to deliver optimal handling when you’re pound bumps, hitting jumps or dodging stumps. Walker Evans Racing Shocks deliver predictable response in all types of terrain.
You can either go with the more trail-oriented 15 x 146 x 1.6 Cobra track or a more aggressive 15 x 146 x 2 Crossover track which provides a little more traction in loose snow or off-trail riding.
The Switchback Assault 9R is quick, responsive and doesn’t lack for power. The Patriot Boost isn’t quite as flickable … but delivers unmatched power. The 9R weighs in at just over 500 pounds while the Boost adds another 30 pounds. Both feature outstanding rider ergonomics, including the Matryx Performance seat and 7S Display gauge.
Although the Switchback Assault can’t compete with the mountain sleds in the steep and deep, it can still get you to where you want to go, particularly if you’re an aggressive rider who isn’t shy on the throttle. It’s the perfect snowmobile for boondocking in marginal snow conditions.
ARCTIC CAT RIOT 858 SNO PRO 146
MATCHING RIDING STYLE
TO
TECHNICAL TERRAIN
BY STEVE JANES
Some snowmobiles are made for the mountains. Others are made for the trails. But what happens when one is made for the trails but identifies as a mountain sled? The Arctic Cat Riot 858 Sno Pro with the 15x146 x 1.75-inch Hurricane track can blast down the roughest trail with the best of them, but is very capable of wandering off-trail and being a natural fit in technical terrain.
With the new 858 C-Tec2 powerplant and the Catalyst platform, the Riot Sno Pro has the power, track speed and agility to take on the steep and deep. It comes with electric start to make it more rider-friendly.
Although the 146x1.75 Hurricane track is better suited on hardpack terrain, it delivers enough bite and forward thrust to allow the sled to be quite adventurous in deeper and
steeper snow terrain.
The Catalyst platform features a centralized mass and lower center of gravity which allows the Riot to instantly respond to the rider input. Because it’s so responsive, you’re able to take it into more technical terrain since you can quickly spin it around if you’re getting into more snow than you wanted.
Although the AWS 39 front suspension with progressive ratio steering is designed to hold tight corners in a twisty trail, it still works well in terrain. The front-end width may not be optimal for sidehilling, but it delivers stability by placing more weight on the skis to reduce side role.
The AC5S shocks deliver five different dampening settings and adjustable spring preload so you can dial in your
ride. These shocks are uniquely calibrated for crossover riding conditions.
The Riot Sno Pro distinguishes itself from the M 858 Alpha One with its uncoupled Cross-Action rear suspension that provides agility from powder to hardpack. This trail-oriented design enables the front and rear halves of the suspension to move independently to provide better cornering and bump absorption on the trail and better weight transfer off the trail.
The Sno Pro’s Catalyst platform utilizes the Arctic Cat belt drive system rather than a chain drive. It is a durable, quick-responding system that is lighter with fewer moving parts. The adjustable center distance allows for multiple ratio options and easier servicing.
An ADAPT CVT System features a lightweight, narrow
design with improved sled performance. It’s the industry’s only self-adjusting clutch by maintaining constant belt tension. This helps to reduce belt heat and improves belt life.
The Riot Sno Pro comes with the ATACH Latching System that allows you to add tunnel bags and other accessories in a simple 4-point latching system so you can put on or remove them in seconds.
The Riot 858 Sno Pro 146 is priced at $16,899. However, it is a spring-order model so it might be tough to find during the winter season. It can also be found in the 600 C-Tec2 engine package, and also has the 146x1.35 Cobra track option.
So if you’re looking for a good trail sled that likes to wander off into the more technical terrain, you may want to consider the Riot 858 Sno Pro 146.
FIGHTING FOG THE HEATED GOGGLE EVOLUTION
BY RYAN THOMPSON
staple for years, yet they’ve consistently battled one stubborn enemy: fog. That misty haze has long obscured the wearer’s vision appearing at times as a minor annoyance and at other times a legitimate safety concern. The logistics of fogging are well known. Warm moist air inside the goggle condenses on the cold inner surface of the lens obstructing visibility and diminishing the scenic mountain or trail view. Perhaps lesser known is the history on how the industry has battled to overcome this seemingly simple vapor.
The first major advancement in goggle anti-fog prevention came in 1965 when Bob Smith, an orthodontist and the eventual founder of Smith Optics,
Smith found that the addition of a second lens sandwiched with the outer lens with an air gap in between helped to prevent the inner lens surface from getting cold, reducing the likelihood of moisture condensation (i.e. fog).
He also learned that by adding foam vents around the goggle chassis, the moist air inside the goggle would have a chance to escape instead of condensing on the inner lens surface. As a final step, he added a chemical treatment to the inner lens surface that allowed the lens to absorb small amounts of condensation. These three steps taken together, provided significant relief and are now a cornerstone in all modern goggle designs.
won’t un-fog until it’s completely dried out. A feat not easily achieved with your digits cloaked in gloves and waist deep in powder. Consequently, the anti-fog quest continued.
The advent of the heated lens goggle came in 1989 as described in a US patent in which a heated goggle lens is used to prevent condensation. At its core, the invention was very simple: raise the temperature of the inner lens surface above the dew point to prevent condensation. However, implementing this concept has some real challenges, keeping the industry busy and the heated goggle evolutionary story racing forward the last 30 years.
At the heart of this challenge is
the lens itself and the power it takes to heat it to a temperature necessary to prevent fogging. The original patent called for small metal wires to be added to the lens surface like the rear window of a car. Ultimately this approach was replaced with a special fully transparent electrically conductive film that was capable of heating up when electricity is passed through it.
As far as the power problem is concerned, two primary approaches were the first to become commercially available and are still represented today, the first involves an electrical cable that runs from the goggle to the snowmobile power port, and the second involves a battery pack that’s worn by the goggle wearer.
Major manufacturers such as SkiDoo, 509, and FXR have all embraced one or both of these techniques and continue to use them today.
In 2015 another approach was introduced by newcomer goggle manufacturer, Abom Inc. Unimpressed by heavy and cumbersome external cables and battery boxes, Abom was determined to produce a heated lens goggle that fully integrated the power source within the chassis. Their innovative design rid the user of the battery box and cables, and it also helped keep the battery efficient by storing it out of the elements.
Additionally, the design of the lens provided an optimal fog free experience, but the advanced technology in the lenses and electronics was expensive, making the price point out of range for average riders.
The latest advancement in the heated goggle space started in 2022 when two former members of the Abom team, founded Tempest Optics. While
the Abom goggle incorporated all the heating elements into the changeable lenses, the Tempest goggle heats the inner lens, keeping that more expensive element as a permanent fixture in the chassis. In addition, they perfected the magnetic lens which not only seals the heated element, but allows for a quick lens change for varied light conditions that is so simple you can keep your gloves on. The under discussed improvement of the heated google, however, is Tempest’s sensors and coding. With its intuitive heating system, this goggle knows exactly when to warm up or cool down. This effortless usability is a game-changer.
With the industry pushing the envelope in technology and design, it will be interesting to see what is offered next, perhaps a heated goggle that will make you lunch?
