Description
For over a century, Gates has driven innovation in belt technology to power the machines that move you. Gates® G-Force C12 CVT belt drives are engineered to navigate the toughest off-road trails with power and efficiency. The industry's first CVT belt with carbon tensile cord also features a trapezoid top-notch and rounded cog design for superior flexibility and heat dissipation, along with a unique gum adhesion that reduces fiber pullout within the belt extending the life of the belt. Gates combines material science and process engineering to create innovative products that provide performance, reliability and the strength to withstand even the most challenging off-road environments. Continuous innovation isn't just what we do. It's who we are.
WHY G-FORCE C12 BELTS?
- STRENGTH: The first CVT belt utilizing carbon tensile cord for minimal stretch and extraordinary strength.
- FLEXIBILITY: High-performance neoprene with a trapezoidal topnotch and rounded bottom cog design maximizing heat control and flexibility.
- DURABILITY: Carbon tensile cords are bonded to aramid fiber-loaded rubber with specially formulated adhesion gum, resulting in increased side-load resistance, preventing belt distortion and edge cord pullout.
- PERFORMANCE: Gain optimal power transmission for faster acceleration, improved throttle response and consistent shifting performance.

Vehicle Information
Arctic Cat Pantera 800 Snowmobile (1998-2004)
The Arctic Cat Pantera 800, produced from 1998 to 2004, was a popular two-up touring snowmobile known for its comfort and performance. Throughout its production, this model saw significant evolution in its engine and available trims, catering to riders seeking a powerful yet luxurious experience on the trails. From 1998 to 1999, the Pantera 800 was equipped with a 794cc liquid-cooled Suzuki triple-cylinder engine, utilizing carburetors. The year 2000 did not feature an 800cc Pantera model. A notable change occurred from 2001 to 2004, when Arctic Cat transitioned to a 785cc liquid-cooled twin-cylinder engine for the Pantera 800. Furthermore, the fuel system evolved, with Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) being adopted from 2002 onwards, replacing the carbureted system. Trims included the Pantera 800, Pantera 800 EFI, and specialized versions like the Pantera 800 EFI ESR (Electric Start and Reverse) in 2002-2003, and the Pantera 800 EFI Black in 2004. These later models emphasized luxury features such as electric start, reverse, modular seating, and passenger hand warmers. Q: How do I know which parts fit my Arctic Cat Pantera 800?

Maintenance
| Component | Interval | Details |
| Engine Oil / Oil Filter | Beginning and mid-winter season | 2-stroke engines do not have a traditional oil filter. Check and replenish the oil injection reservoir with the recommended 2-stroke oil. |
| Drive Belt | Inspect every 100 hours | Inspect regularly for wear, fraying, or cracks. Replace if damaged. Typical lifespan of 2 400 to 4 800 km depending on riding style. |
| Spark Plugs | Inspect every 100 hours | Inspect and replace if they show signs of wear to maintain engine efficiency. |
| Air Filter | Regularly | Check and clean or replace. 2-stroke snowmobiles often have an air intake silencer that should be kept clean and free of obstructions. |
| Coolant | Every 2 years or 200 hours | Check level regularly and ensure the system is leak-free. |
