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 ZR 6000 Snowmobile (2014-2023)
The Arctic Cat ZR 6000 series, available from 2014 to 2023, is a high-performance trail and crossover snowmobile known for its agility and responsive power. Throughout this period, all models were consistently powered by Arctic Cat's C-TEC2 599cc twin-cylinder, 2-stroke engine, delivering approximately 123 to 125 horsepower. This engine, Arctic Cat's first self-made snowmobile engine, debuted with the ZR 6000 in 2014, replacing previous Suzuki-sourced units and featuring Dual-Stage Injection (DSI) for improved efficiency. While the core C-TEC2 600 engine remained, the ZR 6000 series saw several key updates. In 2019, the engine received refinements for improved low-end power, and the ARS II front suspension was introduced, enhancing handling. Further evolution occurred in 2022 with the adoption of the ADAPT CVT clutch system across all full-sized models, offering a lighter, more compact design for quicker response and better throttle feel. Various trims like El Tigre, Sno Pro, LXR, and Limited offered options for performance or comfort. FAQ:
Q: How do I ensure I select the correct parts for my Arctic Cat ZR 6000?
