What's this sled worth??? - Snowmobile Forum

It is a 1995 Arctic Cat Thundercat 900 triple. I am not sure on miles and I am going by it being in good condition. It has a brand new track, new studs,clutch kit, full aftermarket exhaust.

I am just trying to get a ball park figure. Let me know what you would think it is worth!!!!

Thanks, Doo02

I am gonna agree with Ty.
$1500 is a good ballpark. MAYBE $2000 if some mods have been done to it.
Those triples are a good motor but they are heavy.

Also not much on the bottom end for H.P. You gotta get the RPM's up to get alot of power out of them unless you dump alot of cash into the clutching. If you can get the clutching set, It's a powerhouse/torque monster. Even my 600 will surprise me once in a while!

Don't let the "Thundercat" name throw you. the only difference in that and another ZR chassis is the motor and paint.

Also, like other triple/triples, gas milage sucks. Out of my 600 triple/triple, I get maybe 70 miles if I ride it soft.(yea, right... what does that mean?) We also ride between 6000 and 10,000 feet elevation so the thin air may not help much.

These are observations from riding my 600 and a friend that had a 900 T-Cat. Others may have different opinions.

Sorry everyone, had to be said from an infiltrating Yamaha guy!!

Ok, I'll go back to the Yamaha section now.

I bought a 1997 zrt800 with mod clutch, fox shocks. this has the new suspension not that older one. i paid 1800.00. body and chassis was clean and body was nice no scratches. i weigh 440(no fat jokes....lol) and the sled screws.

Those older 900's were supposed to be monsters... fairly heavy because they hadn't started to put much into lightening the sleds yet, but they ran like wild banshees.

I think that 900 triple was one of my favorite AC motors... and I'm not an AC guy... I am Yamaha all the way. The only other AC motor I have been impressed with is my brothers 600 powder extreme, and that's been gone through pretty heavily and built up.

Hopefully you get some pics, I'd like to see it.!
