Did they mention ground clearance?

 

At some point, don't you just buy a sand rail & call it good?

 

Not if you don't ride dunes.

 

Some info I was just told... Pretty reliable source...


105 hp 15" wheel travel
2 models...One is 5 speed paddle shift triptronic trans, QE lock front diff, and power steering. The other has all but the paddle shifter.

Did they mention ground clearance?

Not yet I'll try to find out...

 

Wonder if Polaris will release anything in January?

 

Bet they will.....

 

This is great man, these one up wars between the manufacturers, is a great thing for us consumers.

 

NO! It isn't.....I can't afford to keep up....:rofl3:

 

Thats pretty impressive, wonder what popo has one the horizon... opcorn:

 

Only problem with all of this is the $$$$ and that I will want one but won't be able to afford it lol

 

X2 , but I will never have to worrie as the 50" models don"t even interest any of the competition, they are all only after the high dollar spenders , making us narrow trail riders only have one choice in a sxs. there is still a good market but nobody has the guts to shoot for it..to bad:rollfinger::rm_thumbdown::sad:

 

Get a XP and don't look back.

 

Still no info on the price, engine location, and rear diff. It does come with dual exhaust though from what I can tell and less bed space than the XP

Hmmm count me out. There is barely enough room in the '13 XP for two of us, camera gear and a couple days of camping equipment.

 

thats sounds sweet .... got my attention

 

Electronic shift paddles on the steering wheel... on a off road open vehicle? sand, mud, dirt and water don't sound compatible with the electronic switches, and steering wheel connections to the paddles that will be shifted thousands of times a year, sounds unlikely to me.
But time will tell...

I am sure they will use the Spider Technology for the paddle shifter.

It has already been proven for ues out in the weather, rain wind dust blowing sand and the like.

Some people try to act like BRP is pulling a rabbit out of their hat with the paddle shifter, but they've had plenty of success with the spyder.

 

Polaris has an answer for this and will wait to release it after Can Am has put all their chip on the table. They are getting well over 100 HP out of the 900 prostar engine with just a few minor tweeks on bore and larger throttle body. I have it on good athority that polaris has this and is waiting to see what the competition does before they do anything.

 

Still have to able to drive. That's the bottom line. Since I'm not racing mine I'll be happy with it for a few years. For the group I ride with it's plenty fast.

 

I call BS on all of this but I am be wrong also.opcorn:
Time will tell.

 

Their calling it the " Maverick "

 

I doubt the paddle shift as its not cost effective for such a toy, cvt is more reliable and cheap

OK so whoever goes to the sand show and sees it, take cell photos, forward the photos to me, free sticker consideration, and I swear not to add doors or sasquatch or a cat.

 

Here you go.

 

a nice crappy pic for ya

 

He's already played with that pic...

 

Maverick approves of the Maverick. :rofl3: :rofl3: :rofl3: :rofl3:

 

Bhahaha! I just about pissed myself when I saw this! Good one

Ya maybe...
We will see. Once the soggy bottom boys down south take it for a swim or 2, in a few mud-holes/canals, my bet is it becomes a random automatic, shifting all on its own. :rofl3:

That may be why two models... You don't have to buy it if you don't want it...

 

So many questions: width,HP,ground clearance,wheel travel,Then type of 4 wheel drive. After all this is disclosed then you have the question of what is PoPo gonna release to compete with it. Should give some good options for Peeps in the market for performance. I just hope its not all geared toward the duners. Maybe one of them will listen to us trailriders out east and unlease a 100 hp, 60 inch, trail machine and call it the DOMINATER!!!!!:rofl3::rofl3::rofl3: ( to much coffee this morning):rofl3::rofl3::rofl3:

dont get your hopes up. this can-am looks like another side by side going in the wrong direction.

 

I'm anxious to see the full specs on it. I wont buy a first year run on it, but it is possible that I'd trade the 900 in on one in a year or so. It will have to be a bit different than the Commander for me to consider it though. I dont like the huge hot console in the Commander so if the Maverick has that, I'm out.

With that said, I'm sure Polaris has something up their sleeve waiting on this. They are the top SxS manufacturer and I dont think they are going to let that title go anytime soon.
