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?

Vehicle Information
Arctic Cat Panther 370 Snowmobile (2001-2008)
The Arctic Cat Panther 370, a popular touring-style snowmobile, was produced from 2001 to 2008. It was known for its reliability and comfort, offering an enjoyable riding experience for trail excursions. Initially equipped with a 339cc engine in 2001, the Panther 370 received a significant update starting in 2002. Models from 2002 to 2008 were powered by a 367cc, air/fan-cooled, horizontal in-line, 2-stroke engine with a reed valve configuration. This 367cc engine produced approximately 36 horsepower, as noted for the 2003 model, and maintained similar specifications for subsequent years. These models typically featured a CVT transmission with reverse, an Independent Double Wishbone Front Suspension, and a FasTrack Rear Suspension, along with comfort features like heated hand grips and a seat backrest. The Panther 370 was primarily offered as a single touring model, without major distinct trim levels. Q: How can I ensure this part fits my Arctic Cat Panther 370?
A: To guarantee compatibility, please use the year and model selector available on this page.
Maintenance
| Component | Interval | Details |
| Injection oil level | Regularly | For 2-stroke engines, check the injection oil reservoir level and use manufacturer-recommended oil. |
| Drive belt | Regular inspection, replace if worn/damaged | Break-in of approximately 40 km for a new belt. Some users report a lifespan of 1,600 to 3,200 km or more, depending on use and conditions. |
| Spark plugs | Before each season (moderate use) | Replace more frequently with intensive or aggressive use. The owner's manual specifies the exact spark plug type (e.g., NGK BR9EYA). |
| Air filter | Every 10-12 hours or if dirty | Inspect and replace if damaged or excessively dirty. Clean more often in dusty or extreme conditions. |
| Coolant | Every 2 to 5 years | Or whenever the cooling system has been drained for maintenance or repair. Use manufacturer-recommended coolant. |
