2005 Arctic Cat 250 2x4 ATVs - Great bang for the buck and ride

These are great machines. My dad has one. My cousin sold me his for a good price. He sucked water in it. I put some extra into it to get it bored out and get a new piston. This thing runs like a champ. Independent suspension in the rear is very nice for trail rides. You can go over downed trees without feeling like it's going to tip over. The heel/toe shifter is absolutely the best. LOW RANGE selection is amazing. You wouldn't normally want to ride double on a small 250cc machine, but when you put it in low range, double riding is so easy and effortless. When riding single, the low range is great for pulling. I also use it for climbing steep grades without chewing up the trail. A tiny amount of throttle will allow it to climb effortlessly, while other even more powerful ATVs have to use way more RPMs.

Upgrades/Accessories

ATP Mudlite Tires: I would recommend these or any other trail/mud tire. The stock tread is really not good at anything besides hard packed dirt or grass. Like I mentioned about the low range, a good tire will allow this ATV to climb with very little RPMs. With stock tires you're going to dig or at least chew up the trail.
