The kit he mentioned will only work if you have a 250 4wd to start with.

I think all of the newer Cats have this feature. You just squeeze the brake lever and push the start button. Cheers Jim

I recently purchased a new Arctic Cat 250 2x4. I have read some posts about being able to start the Arctic Cat in gear. Is there a way to make my 250 do that?

So are you saying there is a kit, or is it only for the 4x4?

No, you can buy the kit though. Same parts as on the 300 4x4. Hadn't thought about it so I have no clue as to what they would ask for it. The 2wd/4wd conversion kit msrp's for 59.95 though. I know you didn't ask about it but trust me it is a good investment! Jason

Ignore the 4x4 kit, my eyes were not working correctly, I misread your cat specs. Jason

I'm not sure how the start in gear feature is wired but it could be done several ways. Run a wire from your tailight circuit to a relay. Then run a wire from the fuse box to the + in side of the relay. Then from the + out of the relay to your start switch. Or put a pressure operated switch in your brake line (it should be for a brake system)and run power to and from this switch. Clear as mud right?
