Snowmobile "Stealth Ermak 800" - features of the model

The Stealth Ermak 800 snowmobile is an improved version of the Buran snowmobile. From its predecessor, the car took the propulsion unit and support-type front skis. Otherwise, the models are radically different. Stels 800 Ermak uses a completely new DSA frame, which consists of a steel tubular-sheet frame and an aluminum tunnel. It is very durable and protects the car from serious damage even when colliding with an obstacle and driving in deep snow. Rollovers are unlikely and occur only when the driver makes serious mistakes. Owners say that, thanks to its design, the snowmobile copes well with driving on uneven surfaces and does not roll over during sharp turns.

The lineup

“1 ski + 2 tracks” is an ideal design that provides the least pressure on the snow, allows for easy steering between trees and reduces the possibility of branches, stumps, stones, etc. penetrating the vehicle’s suspension components. The main advantages over Buran:

  • more engine power (about twice);
  • 2 times faster;
  • twice the volume of the fuel tank;
  • gearbox with low gear;
  • Gearbox gearbox, without chain;
  • hydraulic brakes;
  • rear suspension - hydraulic gas shock absorbers;
  • skis on a running stand (150 mm).

Stealth 800 Ermak is equipped with non-slip footrests as standard

These footrests provide significant support for your feet and prevent slipping, which is important for safety even at speeds or in snow. The footrests are equipped with special teeth at the end

The manufacturer has released two well-known models Ermak 600 and 800 of different modifications - with one and two skis.

Stealth Ermak 600L

A distinctive feature of this design is a ski and 2 tracks - they give the snowmobile mobility and easy controllability off-road.

The snowmobile is based on a chassis model with a steel central rib and an aluminum tunnel, where much less snow accumulates than on a simple steel chassis, and the ski located in the center makes it easier to maneuver between trees.

Stealth Ermak 800L

The model was created for regions where snowmobiles with one ski and two tracks are popular. “Stealth Ermak” will be appreciated by lovers of winter recreation, as well as those who use equipment for work, transportation, and driving in difficult winter conditions.

When compared with other similar models, ERMAK has a powerful and fast engine, a fuel tank twice as large, a transmission with a lower gear ratio, gears instead of chains, hydraulic brakes, gas-hydraulic shock absorbers in the rear suspension and skis mounted on telescopic frames. STELS ERMAK also features a modern design, a comfortable seat, a heated steering wheel and a throttle valve for a comfortable ride.

Reviews

  • Vadim, Primorsky Krai. A cool car for long trips with large loads. I use this snowmobile exclusively as a truck, and it copes with this task perfectly. The car sometimes annoys with minor breakdowns, but spare parts are available everywhere at a reasonable price. At the moment, the mileage on the odometer exceeds 1300 kilometers. Fuel consumption is gigantic. But this is understandable given the heavy loads I have to deal with. In addition, sometimes you have to carry passengers with you. That's why the expense is quite high. But I don't really complain about this since I have an extra fuel tank. The total volume (including two tanks) reaches about 100 liters - more than enough for me for long distances. The car looks stylish and sporty, although it is intended for leisurely driving - but this is more likely in my case, since I don’t need overly aggressive driving. I have a very expensive and valuable cargo, and I don’t need the snowmobile to tip over.
  • Nikita, Novosibirsk. The Stealth 800 Ermak snowmobile is generally worth the money. But nothing more. The car is too expensive to maintain and causes problems in the field, since it is not the best option for off-road use. The cross-country ability is generally not bad, but the problem is that the tracks quickly become clogged with snow, this snow freezes and then turns into ice - this problem is more relevant for those cases when the car is stationary for several minutes - believe me, at minus 40 degrees, even 5-10 minutes is enough for ice to form. In short, I made it a habit to regularly clean the tracks before each ride. Of course, the car is stored only in a warm and heated room, and then it must also be dried so that the melt water does not freeze at minus 40. The average fuel consumption is small, but it increases greatly when driving off-road.
  • Yaroslav, Lipetsk. I appreciate the Stealth 800 Ermak snowmobile for its cross-country ability and dynamics. The car performed excellently in active maneuvering in the wilderness - in general, where there are a lot of obstacles, trees and stones. Very nice sharp steering wheel. The instant response of the turning skis to steering movements is beyond praise. Unfortunately, the snowmobile breaks down. The chassis and steering are especially capricious, because these components are subject to the greatest loads. I have never fully loaded the snowmobile, since I use it exclusively for driving, for driving on rolled and smooth snow. I especially like to accelerate on a flat road - the adrenaline rush is guaranteed. It’s just that sometimes breakdowns are annoying, and this is happening more and more often. Problems appear with the variator, the transmission does not turn on clearly and even leaks. The car was successfully run-in. I bought the device in 2016. Some shortcomings spoiled the impression a little, and I would have sold the car long ago if it weren’t for the great handling.

Basic equipment

The Stealth Viking 800 has a large trunk volume, a heating device for the trigger and handles, a fuel tank and a large seat that can accommodate the driver and passenger. The basic package includes:

  • A panel showing mileage, engine temperature, fuel reserve and other qualities.
  • A steering panel with many functions (heating buttons, light control, engine start and gas control trigger).
  • A brake that secures equipment. Conveniently located.
  • Rear light. The flashlight is protected from liquids and the device is mounted high, which makes the device more visible in bad weather conditions.
  • A case made of high-strength plastic is located behind the seat. It covers the body, is simply dismantled and used as a support platform.
  • A tow bar that can carry up to half a ton of cargo.
  • Caterpillars.
  • Powerful bumper with a platform for the winch.

For extra the board can be equipped with “Stealth Viking” systems that provide underbody protection, as well as a winch, a branch breaker and a bumper improver.

Due to frost, strong winds and snow, some special features are required from the design of the snowmobile. The Stealth design ensures a successful trip and return home, regardless of the distance.

Design features: the snowmobile can accommodate 2 people; the car reaches speeds of up to 80 km/h; maximum trailer weight 500 kg.

The Stealth Viking 800 is supplied with a track 500 or 600 mm wide (the lug height is 22 mm), for this reason the equipment copes well with driving in deep snow.

Rules for movement and care of equipment

In order for your Ermak equipment to function as long and productively as possible, you must adhere to certain rules of care and storage:

  • Always use only the recommended types of oil and fuel for your snowmobile;
  • store in a special place, preferably a garage, so that the equipment is not exposed to all sorts of negative influences;
  • Before you hit the road, you need to warm up the engine for a couple of minutes;
  • Always clear your snowmobile of ice and snow;
  • try to avoid rocky terrain, because solid bodies can damage this equipment even through snow;
  • You should not make turns at high speeds, because this way the driver can simply fall out of his seat, and the snowmobile continues to move in an uncontrollable state;
  • at night, for normal visibility and confident control, be sure to turn on the headlights.

Using these simple tips, you will significantly increase the life of your Ermak snowmobile, and repairs will not cost you significant expenses. Treat your equipment carefully, then it will delight you with its work!

The main part of the cargo storage compartment can be attached to the trailer hitch - a sled is used for this purpose, where the cargo container is placed. This makes the car a transport snowmobile with good cross-country ability.

In the regular version of the Stealth 800, the steering wheel and throttle are heated - a very practical option for driving in different conditions. In addition, especially for poor visibility, you can use the option of bright light. There is an LED headlight installed here, and a halogen headlight is installed in the front. Both provide high-quality lighting in all weather conditions, at night.

Ignition system

Electronic control unit. He is very reliable. Engine control unit failures are extremely rare, but if they occur, the vehicle should not be driven. Before repairing the ECU, it is necessary to determine the cause of the malfunction. If you only deal with the consequences of a malfunction, the ECU can quickly become inoperable again.

Fuel consumption

Stealth Ermak consumes about 20 l/100 km. The tank is designed for 50 liters. fuel, at the same time, the fuel reserve is about 200 km.

Engine

Long-stroke, 800 cc, 67-horsepower, two-cylinder, four-stroke engine. The transmission uses a new fuel injection system, replacing the old system. The cooling system is liquid and can operate at high or very low ambient temperatures. AI-92 support available. On average, the consumption of this engine is 14 liters. per 100 km.

Transmission

The transmission has down, up and reverse shift functions. The Canadian CVTech model is used, which stands out from its competitors due to its high quality.

Suspension

The suspension is telescopic, support-ski with a travel of 150 mm and 190 mm (front and rear, respectively). It is independent, its design includes levers. The number of front shock absorbers is 1, and the rear ones are 2. The type of front and rear shock absorbers is gas-hydraulic.

Mover

The propulsion system is a caterpillar belt with front sprockets. It is rubberized and reinforced. There are certain technical solutions borrowed from Buran that were retained - identical weight of the structure, type of propeller, skis.

Dimensions and total weight

The snowmobile dimensions in length/width/height are: 3100/1020/1335 mm. Weight reduction had a positive effect on lift, handling, and the intensity of all corners. Dry weight is around three hundred and forty kilograms.

Recommendations for use

The new snowmobile comes with a user manual and a warranty card. The manual describes in detail the location of the main components of the snowmobile, as well as the frequency of their maintenance. Also in it the owner can find diagrams of the location of units, recommendations for replacing basic fluids.

Maintenance

Before each trip, as well as upon returning to the garage, the owner should carry out daily maintenance. It consists of performing basic control operations.

Each time you need to check:

  • throttle valve operation;
  • brake mechanism;
  • serviceability of the steering;
  • condition of caterpillars;
  • fuel, oil, brake and coolant levels;
  • reliability of hood fastenings, casings;
  • condition of the towing device;
  • availability of spare parts.

In addition, after each trip you need to thoroughly clean the headlights, and also completely remove snow and ice from the body and tracked mechanism, and wipe dry areas where water has accumulated.

Types and frequency of maintenance

Maintenance numberWhen to carry out
1A month after purchase, or upon reaching 450 - 550 km of mileage
2At the end of the season, or after reaching 1150 - 1250 km on the odometer
3 and subsequentIt is carried out once a year, usually after the winter period, or every 1200 km.

Running in a new all-terrain vehicle

The running-in period for this all-terrain vehicle is 500 km. To avoid future problems with the engine and other vital components of the machine, you must follow some rules:

  • do not transport passengers or cargo;
  • drive in dense snow, avoiding very rough terrain;
  • keep the speed within 40-50 km/h;
  • do not allow the throttle valve to open more than three quarters;
  • do not allow the motor to overheat;
  • do not move for a long time at a constant speed;
  • monitor the condition of fasteners.

Ask a Question

If during the break-in period unusual noises in the engine or any other malfunctions appear, you must contact a specialized service center for help. Under no circumstances should you try to fix problems yourself or tamper with the design - this may lead to loss of warranty.

It is allowed to transport a snowmobile by road, water or rail. During transportation, the strapping rules specified in the operating instructions must be followed.

Design and functionality

Stealth 800 Ermak is an ideal snowmobile for lovers of active winter recreation. The model is also loved by hunters and fishermen. They value the vehicle not only for its ability to move quickly off-road, but also for the fact that this snowmobile allows it to transport large loads.

Engine

Stels 800 Ermak is equipped with a two-cylinder gasoline engine with a displacement of 0.8 liters. Upon reaching 6000 crankshaft revolutions per minute, the unit is capable of developing a rated output power of 49.87 kilowatts (67 horsepower). Upon reaching 5000 crankshaft revolutions per minute, a maximum torque of 73 newtons per meter is achieved.

The engine uses an EFI fuel injection system. The unit runs on gasoline not lower than AI-92. Its average consumption per hundred kilometers is about 14 liters. The liquid cooling system reliably protects motorcycles from overheating when operating in warm weather.

There is a main fuel tank with a capacity of 58 liters and an additional tank with a capacity of 25 liters of fuel (this is an optional addition to the version with an engine displacement of 600 cc). This volume of fuel is quite enough to cover fairly long distances, which is undoubtedly one of the main advantages of Ermak.

Seats and luggage compartment

The snowmobile is available with a seat designed for two people. But there is also a modified version of the 800L with a long wheelbase (Stealth Ermak 800 Long), which has only one driver’s seat with a removable backrest. This solution made it possible to increase the luggage area to 800 square centimeters, thanks to which the snowmobile can transport cargo up to 500 kg (while the base model is designed to transport 350 kg).

The seat itself was previously used in the flagship Viking model. The Stealth Ermak did not change it, since in the reviews people note high comfort, you can cover quite a long distance and not experience fatigue.

Chassis

The snowmobile is equipped with a double caterpillar track, complemented by a non-slip system. The independent rear suspension is equipped with two shock absorbers. Among the key features, it should be noted the ability to adjust for certain operating loads. The front suspension is telescopic type with a spring and one shock absorber. This design was transferred to the Stealth 800 from the Stealth Wolverine. Although it is simple, it is the most reliable.

Convenient options

As standard, the Ermak 800 snowmobile has heated steering grips, which is a very convenient option when driving in rather harsh conditions. In addition, the machine is equipped with a headlight and a hydraulic brake with a very convenient location, which ensures reliable fixation of the snowmobile when carrying out transportation work.

At the rear of the sled there is a waterproof rear light, which is located high. Thanks to this, the car became noticeable even at long distances, which also applies to road and forest areas at night.

The manufacturer has equipped Stels Ermak with a modern dashboard, which has an ergonomic arrangement of all instruments and sensors. Here the driver sees all the necessary information, namely the number of kilometers traveled, the level of fuel in the fuel tank, the temperature of the power plant, the gear engaged, etc.

Among the additional equipment of the machine, a special case made of high-strength plastic should be noted. The case is installed in the rear of the snowmobile behind the back of the passenger seat. If necessary, it can be dismantled and used as a support platform for transporting a second passenger or any cargo. The case has a capacity of 200 liters.

The snowmobile is equipped with anti-slip footrests that provide clear foot support. They allow it to slip, which is a problem with many modern snowmobiles. The footrests also have end teeth, thanks to which you can clear snow from the sole of your shoes.

A high windshield is installed at the front of the winter motorcycle. Thanks to it, the driver is almost completely protected from oncoming winds and branches when moving through forest areas.

Owner reviews and prices

Victor, 36 years old, Krasnoyarsk: “I purchased a Stels S800 Wolverine snowmobile 1 year ago, I am satisfied with the technical parameters of the model. The unit consumes up to 18-20 liters per 100 km. The wide track system gives the vehicle stability. Stealth 800 is supplemented with indicators and fuel measurement sensors.”

Vladimir, 42 years old, Novosibirsk: “I bought a Stels 600 Viking snowmobile 1.5 years ago. I liked the build quality and the reliability of the design. I use the equipment for winter fishing trips. A powerful motor allows you to transport cargo along difficult routes. The equipment is equipped with optical instruments and sensors.”

Dmitry, 36 years old, Omsk: “I chose Ermak for long trips. The vehicle's cross-country ability is at a good level, the engine allows it to transport heavy loads. The snowmobile’s mileage is 1,400 km, and there have been no major breakdowns so far.”

The cost of equipment varies depending on the region. For example, a snowmobile in Omsk can be bought from 330 thousand rubles. For a used model, the price can be reduced to 260 thousand rubles.

Specifications

Both the 600s and 800l models have the following advantages over other types of snowmobiles and have the following technical characteristics:

  • the most convenient gearbox system, which is almost similar to a car. This provides comfort and confidence when operating this equipment;
  • the latest suspensions, which vary depending on placement: the front is telescopic and the rear roller is adjustable, which allows you to successfully move not only on snow, but also on ice;
  • excellent frame, which is designed in such a way as to prevent freezing of ice and frost. To manufacture the body of Ermak snowmobiles of this series, durable and reliable materials are used: steel, aluminum, plastic, which ensures high safety of the driver and passenger;


STELS

  • the lug of the caterpillar belt is increased, which allows for excellent traction, and the presence of special additions on the belt will make it easier to clean the unit from snow and ice;
  • In order for the snowmobile to move as smoothly and without damage as possible over large layers of snow, it was equipped with a special reinforced plastic bottom;
  • the gas trigger and steering wheel are heated so that the driver’s fingers do not freeze while driving;
  • great variability in terms of transportation: the model chair allows you to transport fairly large loads, and the passenger seat can be completely removed, after which the backrest can be installed in the driver’s seat;
  • The latest type of headlights allow you to illuminate a fairly large surface, and thanks to the reinforced material, you don’t have to worry about its safety.

This is how STELS series snowmobiles differ from other types of similar equipment. Now let's look at each model separately.

600

This transport equipment is equipped with a float-type carburetor. Air cooling is optimal for sub-zero temperatures.

The transmission here is equipped with standard gears: low, high, neutral and reverse, which will ensure good handling and confident driving. The brakes are hydraulic and disc.


STELS 600

Gas-hydraulic shock absorbers allow for a soft ride, because the snowmobile often overcomes various obstacles that can cause jumps and, therefore, loss of control. Shock absorbers of this type will provide you with a comfortable ride.

Variable front and rear suspensions will help you choose the optimal snowmobile height for any type of movement. The movement speed of Stealth 600 allows you to accelerate to at least 90 km/h.

800

The STELS 800 differs from the previous model in some characteristics: for example, the engine here is 4-stroke (like the Dingo T150 snowmobile) and has a larger volume, which is equal to 800 “cubes”. The power of this unit is also increased and amounts to 67 hp. The fuel system is injection and the cooling is liquid.


STELS 800

A special “anti-freeze” is used, which is optimally suited for such climatic conditions. The transmission and brake system are similar to the 600 model, and the same can be said about the shock absorbers. The STELS 800 weighs 340 kg, which makes it more massive than its “little brother”.

And that’s exactly what snowmobiles are for!

Video

The Stealth 600 Ermak snowmobile has quite a lot of features and advantages, namely:

  1. A gear-type gearbox equipped with reverse is used. The gearbox has high, low and neutral gears. The gear shift pattern is in many ways similar to automatic transmissions in passenger cars.
  2. The snowmobile uses a modern suspension that provides a comfortable ride on various surfaces. There is also improved self-cleaning.
  3. The snowmobile uses a modern modular frame, which has a tubular load-bearing frame, a middle rib and a painted aluminum tunnel. This tunnel prevents the freezing of ice and snow.
  4. The snowmobile uses a new lightweight caterpillar track, which has increased lugs and lanterns inside the track, which improve the self-cleaning of the track from snow.
  5. A special bottom made of high-strength plastic is used, which prevents snow from sticking. This type of bottom is ideal for planing in deep snow.
  6. The steering wheel grips and throttle trigger have dual-mode heating, which additionally ensures a comfortable ride.
  7. The snowmobile is equipped with a modular Viking seat, which allows you to increase the luggage compartment of the snowmobile. If necessary, you can completely remove the passenger seat with its base and backrest. It is worth noting that the backrest can also be installed on the driver’s seat.
  8. The snowmobile's fuel tank is designed for 58 liters of fuel, making it possible to make long trips without stopping to refuel. But besides this, there is also an additional fuel tank of 32 liters.
  9. In order to increase comfort and confidence when riding, the manufacturer equipped the snowmobile with a modern instrument panel and lighting equipment.
  10. In addition to the basic configuration, there are a lot of additional ones, thanks to which each client can choose the car that is suitable for him.

Additional packages include the following options:

  • An electrical sensor indicating the fuel level in the fuel tank.
  • A sensor showing the temperature of the engine exhaust gases.
  • Sensor showing outside temperature.
  • Ski made of metal.
  • A couple of tubes.

APPEARANCE AND MAIN CHARACTERISTICS OF THE STELS ERMAK SNOWMOBILE

The other day, Ermak opened the secret curtain on the long-awaited new product for all fishermen and hunters, the STELS snowmobile. Information has appeared about its characteristics and probably the most long-awaited thing is the appearance of this snowmobile. To your delight or regret, the appearance presented by the factory is not the final design of the snowmobile. For now, this is only a 3D model that may receive minor changes. The snowmobile will be produced in two modifications - on a regular platform and on an extended one, with longer tracks.

And now a little more about the new product. The ERMAK snowmobile is designed specifically for those regions where snowmobiles with one ski and two tracks are traditionally used. The ERMAK snowmobile is designed to replace the BURAN snowmobiles, which are outdated morally, structurally and technologically. Possessing the same weight, the ERMAK snowmobile is radically different from its great-great-grandfather BURAN. Judge for yourself: - The engine power is one and a half times greater - The speed is almost twice as high - The fuel tank is twice as large - The transmission has a low gear - The gearbox is gear-based, without a chain. — The brake mechanism is hydraulic — The rear suspension is equipped with gas-hydraulic shock absorbers — The ski is on a telescopic stand Yes, it will be difficult to keep up with this guy!

And now - more about the advantages of the new snowmobile. 1. Air-cooled engine with a volume of 565 cm3 and a power of at least 50 hp, equipped with a power circuit and two carburetors. 2. Gear transmission with reverse, with high, low and neutral gears. The gear shift pattern is similar to that of a car with an automatic transmission. 3. Modern suspensions: — Telescopic front suspension with 150 mm travel, plastic ski with extender and ridge with carbide insert. — Rear adjustable suspension – roller type, for free movement on ice and other surfaces without snow cover. Equipped with two shock absorbers with a stroke of 180 mm, has improved self-cleaning. 4. Modern modular frame with a tubular load-bearing frame, a steel middle rib and a painted aluminum tunnel that prevents ice freezing. 5. New lightweight caterpillar belt with increased lug and with lugs on the inside of the caterpillar, improving self-cleaning of the caterpillar from snow and slush. 6. Plastic reinforced bottom of a special shape for planing in deep snow, preventing snow from sticking. 7. Dual-mode heated steering wheel grips and throttle trigger. 8. The modular Viking seat allows you to increase the luggage compartment of the snowmobile.

Equipment from Ermak company

One of the most reputable domestic manufacturers of equipment of this type is the Ermak company. The organization represents top-class equipment that successfully competes with foreign analogues. The manufacturer is constantly improving its models, thanks to which the line of snowmobiles is expanding every year.

This speaks not only of the successful development of the company, but also of a wide choice for any buyer.

Ermak snowmobiles are presented in various versions, target audiences and price categories. Therefore, everyone will be able to choose exactly the version of the snowmobile that will be optimal in technical and financial terms.

So that you can choose the most suitable model for yourself, you should familiarize yourself with the most popular equipment from this company, which will allow you to get a complete picture of snowmobiles. This is presented in the video and photographic materials published in the article.

What are snowmobiles for?

The scope of application of such vehicles is very wide: they are used both for normal driving and for hunting and transporting goods.

The driver of a vehicle such as a snowmobile can calmly move at high speed and quickly maneuver, overcoming even serious and difficult obstacles.

This is precisely what explains the widespread use of such machines in snowy areas.

The design of any snowmobile is quite simple: instead of wheels, it has skis and tracks, which are ideal for moving on snow, and otherwise the movement process is similar to other types of transport.

Owner reviews

  • Gasoline consumption during break-in is, of course, high, but after that everything is fine. In my opinion, everything is made with high quality and there is practically nothing to break. During the entire period of operation, namely for a year, I noticed only one drawback, namely, if the wiring comes into contact with the muffler, it will simply burn out. In my opinion, this is not a very good location, since it is constantly necessary to monitor this. Otherwise, I’m completely satisfied, the snowmobile pulls uphill perfectly and quickly picks up speed.
  • I've already covered more than a thousand kilometers, but the consumption is still very high. Engine mounts often came off, but this was resolved by replacing them with other models. When driving in deep snow, I noticed very poor handling; when making a turn, the snowmobile could even roll over. Otherwise, the snowmobile is quite good; the machine has sufficient power and maneuverability.

Snowmobile "Stealth Ermak 800"

This unit is famous for its excellent maneuverability. The width of the track allows you to pass through areas of varying difficulty. The fuel tank cannot be damaged while moving by protruding branches. This is achieved thanks to its placement - it is located between the driver’s legs. A branch will also not be able to penetrate the tank from below, since the wide track will prevent this. The main protective barrier against stumps and logs is a special aluminum shield. Since there is only one ski track on this snowmobile, a protective element at the front is simply necessary.

The design of the snowmobile, if it turns over on its side, allows even a girl to easily return it to its original position. Despite the presence of only one ski track, the cross-country ability of the Ermak is at the highest level. Tests on difficult areas have shown that where the Ermak passes, a snowmobile with two ski tracks does not always pass. Due to the large platform, the model from Stealth even passes through bushes. If we draw an analogy, then “Ermak” looks like a tank, only in a purely winter version.

To accommodate the necessary fishing or hunting equipment on the snowmobile, a spacious luggage compartment (case) is provided at the rear. It has cup holders, and the lid of the case can serve as a small table. Experts call foot platforms that quickly become clogged with snow a kind of “oversight.” As a result, the snowmobile slips and may simply fall.

The “Filling” is a 4-stroke engine with a power of 67 hp. A snowmobile consumes approximately 20 l/100 km. The fuel tank is designed to hold 50 liters of gasoline, with a range of just over 200 km. The battery on a snowmobile is quite simple. More precisely, the Ermak 800 has two batteries of 18 amperes each. The pricing policy is attractive, the price is 300 thousand rubles. At the moment, for that kind of money it is very difficult to find something better. Absolutely new equipment for that kind of money is a very good purchase. In conclusion, I would like to add that the snowmobile turned out to be an excellent replacement for the legendary “Buran”

Much faster, more powerful and more progressive, which is important in our time

Reviews of the snowmobile "Stealth Ermak"

  1. “Good technique! I bought it a year ago, so far so good. Compared to the Buran, this is a completely different unit. This snowmobile is not suitable for beginners, as it requires experience in driving. One ski track still greatly affects control over technique. The equipment “chatters” from side to side. Therefore, basic driving skills are required. Fortunately, this is not my first snowmobile and there are no problems with handling. Several times he flew into the stumps. The front power bumper, to be honest, helped out, I thought serious damage could not be avoided, but everything turned out okay. I was pleased with the wide ski track, which gives good stability if you keep the course exclusively straight. It’s not for nothing that snowmobilers nicknamed this model a tank. Well, a bunch of devices, various sensors and indicators will be pleasant surprises for future buyers.”
  2. “I recently became the owner of this snowmobile. Made to last. I am an avid fisherman and really love winter fishing. One day I thought about buying a snowmobile that could carry a lot of gear and equipment. The choice settled on Ermak 800. Ultimately, I started going out on the ice overnight; it would have been hard to imagine without my “predator.” I can easily place a tent, stove and much more. The engine is powerful and does not make mistakes. I was pleased with the optics; the snowmobile provides excellent illumination at night. I hope that after many years of use, my opinion about the snowmobile will not change and it will also serve me faithfully.”
  3. “The opinion about the snowmobile is twofold. If you compare the snowmobile with its great-grandfather “Buran”, then there are no questions. Improved in all respects, the Ermak 800 is several steps ahead of its predecessor. On the other hand, “Ermak” clearly falls short of snowmobile models from global manufacturers. Of course, the cost of snowmobiles is completely different. For 300 thousand rubles, this is exactly the price for Ermak, it is currently difficult to buy something else. If we judge strictly on the “price-quality” principle, then the model from Stels is worth the money. But, if you have money, spare no expense and buy something used, but from a reputable manufacturer. I don’t know, maybe I’m so picky about “Ermak” because I previously had a Yamaha, which was bought for about the same money, but not in new condition.”

SNOWMOBILE “STEALTH ERMAK 800”

The “hero” of today’s review was created for snowy areas where snowmobiles with one track were initially used. “Ermak” is a unit that replaced the well-known “Buran”, which has long been outdated in all aspects. The new model has the same mass, but is much more dynamic and productive. The driver has the opportunity to accelerate at high speed. The fuel tank holds much more fuel. In addition, there are many more advantages, which will be discussed further in the review. Looking ahead, it should be said that the model turned out to be very reliable, the quality of which is evidenced by the reviews of the owners.

Engine

The Stealth 800 Ermak snowmobile received a two-cylinder diesel engine with a displacement of 0.8 liters. The rated power of the engine is 67 horsepower, and is available at 5000 rpm. The engine torque is 73 N/m. The power plant uses a modern fuel injection system, replacing the outdated carburetor system. Cooling is liquid, with the ability to operate at high and low ambient temperatures. Official support for AI-92 gasoline has been announced. The engine consumes an average of 14 liters per 100 km.

Appearance

The hood of this motorcycle is smooth. There are no creases or gutters in which snow can accumulate. The frame is made of reliable steel, and the body is made of high-strength elastic plastic that does not lose quality even in severe frosts. A windshield with improved aerodynamics allows the driver to see everything that is happening without bending over or standing up.

The space under the seat is increased, so it can accommodate two power sources at once. The new model has improved the heated steering wheel grip function, the air intake system, and the electronic wiring is equipped with water-resistant connectors.
