⚙️ Engine Specifications

Primary Engine

Engine Type:

Two-stroke, liquid-cooled, reed valve inducted

Displacement:

Typically around 500cc to 650cc, specific to the exact configuration of the '92 Wildcat and Mountain Cat. Commonly a 488cc or 580cc twin-cylinder.

Bore X Stroke:

Varies by specific engine, e.g., 72.5 mm x 60 mm for a 580cc twin.

Carburetion Injection:

Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI)

Performance

Horsepower:

Estimated 80-100+ HP, depending on specific engine and tuning.

Torque:

Specific torque figures are not readily available without detailed service data, but generally robust for the displacement class.
