Description
Bred from a rich history of experienced belt builders, the Dayco XTX belt is specifically engineered to maximize the performance of the most extreme, high horsepower snowmobiles. Beating the competition on the race course is just one of many aspects that sets the XTX belt apart from its competition. Specially formulated high temperature Polymer along with the highest level of engineered reinforcement proves to perform better in belt operating temperature and efficiency than leading competitors. Its innovative break-through design of deeper cogs on top and rounded cogs on the bottom yield the advantages of ultimate flexibility and longer belt life while being a better alternative to the original equipment belt.

Vehicle Information
Arctic Cat ZR 8000 Snowmobile (2014-2024)
The Arctic Cat ZR 8000, a high-performance snowmobile, was produced from 2014 to 2024. Throughout this period, it consistently featured a 794cc, liquid-cooled, 2-stroke, twin-cylinder engine, renowned for its "165-class horsepower". Built on the ProCross platform and utilizing the SLIDE-ACTION Rear Suspension, the ZR 8000 is engineered for aggressive trail riding. Over its production run, the ZR 8000 saw significant mid-cycle evolutions. A major change was the introduction of the 8000-Series C-TEC2 engine with Dual-Stage Injection, which replaced the earlier Suzuki 800 engine. This new C-TEC2 engine offered substantial improvements, including increased low-end and mid-range torque, and reduced oil consumption. Concurrently, the ADAPT CVT System was integrated, featuring lightweight clutches for enhanced performance, better throttle response, and improved belt life. Other notable upgrades included the ARS II Front Suspension for optimized handling, the availability of ATAC On-the-Fly Suspension for electronic adjustments, and the GENII bodywork redesign. Trims like Sno Pro, RR, Limited, ES (Electric Start), QS3 (adjustable shocks), and ATAC (electronic suspension) offered various feature packages. FAQ:

Maintenance
| Component | Interval | Details |
| Engine Oil Filter | Not applicable (2-stroke engine) | 2-stroke engines use an oil injection system. Check and refill the 2-stroke oil reservoir regularly (before each ride or frequently) with Arctic Cat C-TEC2 Synthetic 2-Cycle Oil or equivalent. |
| Drive Belt | Regular inspection | Inspect belt for wear or tears. Replace if necessary. A new belt requires a 40 km break-in period at 3/4 throttle or less, with varying engine speeds. |
| Spark Plugs | Periodic inspection | Inspect and replace or clean as necessary. After prolonged storage, use one tankful of 100:1 gas/oil mixture in conjunction with the oil-injection system, then inspect spark plugs. |
| Air Filter | As per manual | 2-stroke models typically use an air-intake silencer rather than a serviceable filter element. Consult the manual for specific air intake system maintenance requirements. |
| Coolant | Regular check; replacement every 2 years | Check level regularly (before each ride or frequently). Replace coolant every two years regardless of use. |
| Brake Fluid | Pre-season and every 50 hours check; replacement every 2 years | Check level pre-season and every 50 hours. Replace every two years. |
| Chain Case Oil | Annual or end-of-season replacement | Replace chain case oil at the end of the season or annually. |
