UNVEILED: ProCross F800 Tucker Hibbert Race Replica

9.8.12

Everyone wants a piece of him: racers want to beat him, sponsors want to sign him and fans want to get close to him. Now everyone can get his ProCross F800 Race Replica snowmobile. Designed, signed and given the stamp of approval by #68 himself, Tucker Hibbert has introduced the gnarliest snowmobile bolted to white skis!

The Tucker Hibbert Race Replica is a consumer version of the race-winning ProCross Sno Pro that carries Tucker to victory, equipped with competition-spec components like Kashima Coated FOX Float EVOL X ski shocks; white trail skis, number plates, a low custom race-cut windshield, handguards, an aggressive non-slip seat cover and exclusive race-inspired graphics. The race-version of the Slide-Action rear suspension has white powder coated rails, complete with FOX Zero X shocks featuring remote reservoirs and clicker adjustments.

The platform for the Tucker Hibbert Race Replica’s superiority is the ultra-light and tough ProCross chassis, with the front Arctic Race Suspension offering the ultimate precision and steering control. With 10 inches of travel up front and 13.5 inches at the rear, Tucker’s Race Replica is tuned to blast bumps and withstand even the hardest landings.

Powering this limited-edition snowmobile is the 160-plus hp 800 H.O. 2-stroke engine featuring batteryless EFI, electronic APV valves and Exhaust Pipe Temperature Sensor. With the Arctic Drive System and Torque Control Link putting all the power to the 15 x 128 x 1.25-in. Ripsaw track.
It’s only available in Tucker’s signature color, black/black.

INJURY UPDATE

4.2.12

Monster Energy/Arctic Cat’s Tucker Hibbert had a set back last week in his recovery from a grade four kidney laceration he sustained Saturday, March 17 in Wisconsin at the final ISOC National Snocross event of the season. After being released from the hospital in Milwaukee and spending two days at home, Hibbert started experiencing complications from the injury. He was hospitalized again Monday through Friday of last week.

Due to the injury, Hibbert missed the second day of the ISOC Grand Finale in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin as well as Clash of Nations in Sweden. This was the first time in his twelve years of racing snowmobiles professionally he missed a scheduled event due to injury.

Hibbert will remain under close observation by his doctors the coming months. There is no realistic timeline set on his return to racing motocross this summer.

Tucker Hibbert:
“I’ve been really fortunate throughout my racing career to only have a few injuries and all of them have been either broken bones or torn ligaments. It’s been hard couple of weeks because internal injuries are unpredictable. I’m thankful my kidney is healing, fully functioning and that I didn’t end up having it removed. I haven’t seen the video of the crash and I’m not sure what I hit. I didn’t have one bruise or scratch on my stomach or back from the crash. I think my TekVest saved me from a much more severe injury. I’m thankful to be home again and am completely focused on my recovery.”

Stay connected to his Facebook and Twitter accounts for more updates.
