    1:50 to answer your very good question that the can am guy did nt have a clue about the answer:
    They placed the upper ball joint further in the wheel and the upper a arm bushing further in the frame. This result as an upper a arm slightly longer than the lower, wich help with the roll center of the machine. They sacrificed a little of track widh change for a better roll center

    I miss the light weight 2-stroke atvs. I'm looking at installing a 850cc into a Polaris scrambler chassis. Myself I currently ride a highly modded yamaha raptor 770cc with plus 3mm intake valves and plus 2mm exhaust valves plus many other things. Let's say it's just stupid.. My daughter's Yamaha blaster is also built it will take a stock Polaris scrambler 400 2-stroke in a drag race for 2 high line pole lengths before the other machine slowly catches up. It tops out at 72mph stock was around 55mph. It's at the limits of pump gas and its geared to the moon, even worked the transfer ports, extreme port n polish yz Reed cage, bigger air intake and carb as well. And 23x7 up front and 22 inch tall tires out Back.

      @dennisgt479 Год назад +2

      I had a 2018 Outlander 570 Max XT, and I traded it in for a 2023 outlander 700 Max XT. The 570 is lighter, faster all around period. With that said the 700 chassis is so much better, I no longer bottom out on trail rides. It rides smoother, stays more flat going around corners and is over all a nicer ride. My longest single ride a far has been 150kms of bush/ trail riding, and I wasn’t sore or tired, I could have gone longer. The brakes are better too. The 700 isn’t as smooth at idle. Fuel economy is about the same. 700 top speed is 105kph, and kind of struggles to get there, but it is fast enough for me. If you really like power get the 850 or 1000.

    Let’s just race the 570 vs this 650 . They’re using the same engine across a lot of platforms now. Two outlanders , Maverick trail 700, and the lower Defenders , and if I’m not mistaken the lower Commander ? Money. Streamlined production .
    570 prolly puts 1-3 lengths on it.

I like can am lol , and I’m sure these are fine units but it’s dangerous territory to leave what made you unique, which for Rotax is hard hitting power, to compete with better built Japanese machines in this class at the same power levels . 45-50hp.

      Watched a video where the 700 raced the 650 and the 700 won by a slight margin. Can't really explain it myself. The 700 beat the 650 twin off the line each time. Maybe if they had raced farther the 650 could have overtaken the the 700, but with the line they used the 700 won.

  • @powersportsenthusiast1986
    @powersportsenthusiast1986 Год назад +2

    it'd be interesting to know why they went away from the TTI rear suspension setup that they touted for years (and woods racers liked) the ease of maintenance is nice, but if a little heat on your legs bothers you this is the wrong sport for you. if you're wearing shorts the same statement applies. he was off a little on some specs. im splitting hairs, but the 450 and 570 had 8.8 inches of rear travel not 8.5. also they were 46in wide vs a standard outlander 500/700 being 47.6, so more like a inch and a half, not 2 inches. it sounds like this machine runs good out of the box, but for the "modders" of the world i think you'll still get more out of a twin that is close in size. i am eager to hear how this machine does in a more thorough test with more varied types of terrain.

    • @willhutton1516
      @willhutton1516 Год назад +1

      I think that TTI was really focused on higher speed trail riding. It’s great if you need to glide over bumps at 35-40 mph, but suck for stiffness and costs in making it. I think they should’ve kept the smaller machine with the 650, rather than get rid of it. These were basically made to compete (and destroy based on specs and such) the 500-700cc class in the Japanese markets, who have had free reign to raise the prices on their machines without meaningful updates and features

    • @Dusdaddy
      @Dusdaddy Год назад +3

      Coming from a different brand, what I constantly heard Can-Am owners complain about was the heat on the legs and the difficulty of maintenance. I think it's a great sign that a manufacturer addressed owner complaints. I think that's awesome. Enough so that I jumped brands to Can-Am. I was in the market for a new machine, and I chose this 700. I rode a 570 and it was bad enough that I knew I didn't want it. And of all the comments after all the initial reviews, the biggest complaint has just been, "it's different!" because nobody can say it is slower, worse on the trails, or anything else...yet.

      Well, if you're being that anal, you are not telling the whole story either: the XT and the Pro of the 500/700 are 48.8" wide so 2.8". I think the best thing they could have said was 2" wider without losing everyone in the details.

    That thing clearly don't smoke a 570 v-twin engine.... 2 more hp "that what they say" but weight 890 pounds and the 570 only weight 700 pounds so no way 2 more hp on a one cylindre can go faster than a 570 v-twin that weight almost 200 pounds less.

    This looks like Can Am cutting costs. Which is okay if the sales price going out the door is significantly cheaper than what's been offered before.
    And me? I have a 2023 Outlander Max 850 V-Twin. It has no shortage of torque for me and less of a giant one-lunger thumper engine being smoother with two cylinders. I chose the V-Twin for a reason and I would pass on this Can Am.

    • @Dusdaddy
      @Dusdaddy Год назад +3

      Hey that's great for you but many do not need that large amount of power. This is a single, but the power is there sooner and lasts longer than a twin. It won't win a race, but I don't race. This is for the ones replacing a 570/450. The XT version is a full $2700 less than 850 XT. That's huge. I maxed out a Pro model with IEB/ITC and 4Lok front diff. My OTD (Tax, title, Covid surcharge, docs) price was still below the 850XT sticker price and I wouldn't have had the 4Lok.

    He acts like it's some superior single cylinder engine because it has more torque and hp than the 570 vtwin. Well DUH! Of course it's going to be like that! You're comparing a bigger 650 engine to a smaller 570 one! It's got a bigger bore and stroke.

      They cut corners to keep the price down, it's cheaper to make tubular frames and A arm rear suspension.
