Brand New CanAm 6x6 1000!!! *Review*

[@slimpickens5102]

Wow 26k. I bought mine in 2021 and it was under 20 (inflation unreal). Absolutely love my 6x6 smoothest ride. I put side bars around the box, put 27" zillas, spring spacers off amazon on front shocks to get the sag out which liifted it a full 2". I made my own skid plate for the back out of black puck board which worked really good, installed a rear 3500# winch from costco really easy install, heated grips, CV tech clutch, and think im going to get a low windshield Only thing i dont like is they are quite thirsty and a small tank. I got 800kms so far and have no complaints thing is a beast in all terrain.

Glad to hear you like yours! They sure are thirty. A price we have to pay to play I guess 😄

[@hawkbabby]

That’s how you read tires.

Kiss " keep it simple stupid" simplicity for myself I like for durability over time.

[@canadianatvlife]

Fair enough… but it’s so fun 😄 thanks for watching!

[@joeyholthusen6495]

@@canadianatvlife love the videos and believe smaller rims with big tires for maximum floatation is key in the skeg with duals. I live in between arctic cat and Polaris industries keep up the videos. Sometimes taller does no good if there's no bottom to the bog...ie... floatation! Myself I currently ride a yamaha raptor 770cc. My daughter has a modded yamaha blaster. Thinking of building a swamp monster, absolutely agree duals are key....maybe even triples out back and duals up front. The fourtown area is about a little over a hour from levi lavallee.... aka.. Mr snowmobile dude and stunt ridet.

Haha yeah the snorkel risers leave a hole on the one side!🙈. I used black gorilla tape to cover it before I put the snorkel on! I’m cheap too! lol 😂

[@canadianatvlife]

Yes I ended up putting a piece of tape over mine too! I think CanAm can improve on that… 😎

[@chadstocking9848]

The 2 square accessory receivers are used for the side tube rub rails (they are great spots to hook tie downs to). I run my cubby lid on top just like you did as the tailgate secures it anyways. It being locked down by the lower hatch is for when using the machine in full flat deck mode. I have my Tigertail blocking the lower hatch from opening fully.

[@canadianatvlife]

Thanks! Do you like your machine? How many Km does it have on it?

[@chadstocking9848]

@@canadianatvlife I just got it all rigged up this winter after waiting all last year for my order for one to get in. I’ve been so busy working I haven’t got to use it much yet but hopefully be putting some miles on this days off. But I do know that I should have gone straight to a 6x6 in 2015 instead of the 1000 xmr I got. (I’m more of a long distance trail rider and like all the storage space).

[@canadianatvlife]

@@chadstocking9848if there is one thing this machine has its storage space! 😎

[@Techprep23]

255 mm tall the 65r means the width is 65% of the height. On a 14-in rim. So you have 27x10-14 tire. So it's a 27-in tire 10 in wide on a 14-in rim.

[@canadianatvlife]

Thanks! We’ve got some special tires on it now. 😁 Will be posting more on that soon! 😎 thanks for watching!

[@drawncept8391]

Have the '22 model. Love mine. Make sure the connectors to the front wheels (the literal wires that tells the fronts to pull) is in good. That's the only problem I've had with mine. Also, I did put the torq locker on the front because I bought a 6x6...not a 5x6. Can I tell the difference? Yes. But I wouldn't advise driving like that all the time. Plus, she's a thirsty girl, though some have said in forums that the last line on the fuel gage is basically a quarter tank, lol..
Congrats and enjoy, friend.

[@canadianatvlife]

Thank you! Glad to hear you like yours! 😎

[@user-dj8xi9th3u]

Hello, I enjoy your videos. I have a 650 6x6. Trust a heads up with some of the issues I encountered from the first year of owning. Fuel Pump, first time I crossed a river I blew the fuse, turns out the fuse is too small. Took it to my local dealer and they put a larger fuse. 7.5A I think. Since then no issues and I’ve taken it through a good few water crossings. Be careful because it’s really easy to foul the plugs as well, this happened to me and they aren’t fun to change. Always carry a spare set. I just ordered spring spacers from Perfex Industries, they have lots of aftermarket items for 6x6. Great to deal with. The front shocks are way too soft, the plastic skid plate only lasted a month. Since then replaced it with a nice one from Perfex. I live in Newfoundland and the riding is most big rock and mud.

[@canadianatvlife]

Good suggestions! Thanks for sharing and thanks for watching! 😃

[@CanadianCamping]

Love it🇨🇦✌️😉

[@oreally321]

the plastic peace under the snorkel cost $16 Canadain

[@canadianatvlife]

Oh really?? Where do you get that from?

[@ericj6559]

Is the Can Am standard warranty for an atv only 6 months? The Japanese brands all seem to have 1 year as standard.

[@canadianatvlife]

Yes it’s only 6 months. 👎

[@alexlavoie5311]

Cut the tail pipe 6 inches or you will rip it off asap trust me. The stock tires are 26x10x14 rear 26x8x14 front and itp terra cross great tire but not for what you need

[@canadianatvlife]

That’s the first thing I did was cut the tail pipe off 😄
I agree, those tires are only good for trail riding. Thanks for watching!

[@slimpickens5102]

yeah i cut my exhaust before i even took it out.

[@canadianatvlife]

We cut ours off already too!!

[@michaelmatchee]

Can am sells plastic to hide the holes for snorkel add on. Adjust your springs to stiff. 18g for a xmr 1000 in Canada and that price tag has t changed in last 5 plus ish years. Terra cross are great trail tires. Extender muffler pipe or change it out. It’s a short rear hitch, none of my old hitch receivers do not fit. Cable on your winch… pull it all out n re feed it under tension before you need to winch or it will squirrel up. Wire is good just don’t kink it up n then change to rope later on. Reviews on these from northern countries are Indian for musket and wet bush. My defender had a dump box but when full you gotta have some arm muscles. The batwing was on my 2010 outlander n the can am shift rocking you gotta do, better on the new but still a bit there. Enjoy your ride and there is a reason why we drive can am. Cryptids are all around awesome tires n your old quad lights look like sid from ice age…

[@canadianatvlife]

Sounds like all good advice! It totally looks like Sid 😂😂 thanks for watching!

@@canadianatvlife I do understand that this was a review video. And no doubt you will be showing future videos my point is what you had us believe you were reviewing was not what was in the picture.

I just bought polaris 6x6, owned can ams, I work and hunt with mine but there's somethings I don't like, alot of electrical and mechanical problems with mine, unfortunate to see they still don't consider consumer reviews and stick with cheap material and designs.
Polaris is not different atleast the frame is more solid and beefier suspension. Pros for that but still got more work to do with it.

[@bigjay6743]

Being a owner of a CFMOTO makes me laugh seeing that part being made in China for all you people that call it China crap they all are made with 90% China parts and I mean all makes and models. Gust take them apart and u will see.

[@canadianatvlife]

Yes, all parts on CanAm are Mexico and China. That’s the good thing about Honda, all the parts are made in Japan 😄 thanks for watching!
