That’s good on the AZ dealer front. Most desirable cars at the SSSS had ADMs.

FWIW the 4 seater comment was from a connection at Can Am. We got a loose timeframe, no commitments when talking to him, but yes it’s coming.

Kawasaki is supposed to have something new pretty soon too. Patents looked like a bigger engine, maybe a supercharger, and new suspension.

I agree none of these are perfect..people can do whatever they want with their $$$.

Same on my end.. Someone that’s involved with development/testing..
Here is Dustin Jones car for this weekend. The pic don’t show much but there will be more shots
The front knuckles look so much better black..

I just can’t get past the arms from the knuckle to the radius rod. I’d never buy one because of those.

The entire things looks fucking weird to me.. I know it's better, but I think from the looks department the X3's were a lot better. When they start coming out with aftermarket cages etc.. I'm sure they will improve them greatly.

I haven’t heard of any AZ dealers adding ADM’s at this time. That will probably be a Commyfornia thing and they will probably get it. Most dealers are at MSRP.
A $500.00 refundable deposit at most dealers will get you inline. The larger dealers will be allocated more cars as normal. My guy has 84 allocated for this year. CanAm is doing a soft launch. Giving dealers a couple cars that most are keeping for demos. Cars will start rolling in sometime in October..
On the 4 seater I know more then I should but CanAm would not of told you anything even if it was coming out the week after the sand show. They like to keep things tight lipped. It’s coming !!! For a $500.00 refundable deposit I have a 2 seater and put a deposit on a 4 seater this week. Dealers have no info on the 4 seater as of now but if I don’t like what I see with the 4 seater no loss..
Every Utv out here has its pros and cons. There is not one built that is 100% bulletproof. We all make our choices and deal with them.
Some guys in the know on a Can-Am group are saying the 4 seater will be out this year (2024 model).

My salesman told me Can-Am is releasing something new every six months for the foreseeable future.
I strongly suspect a four seat will be out in 5-6 months, especially since there was a spy photo with a four seat in the background.

Still a butter face. It’s ugly AF. Hopefully it performs.

Are any of the aftermarket "R" builds addressing the bluetooth cage issue?

Looks like Dusting beat Jordan Brenthal who won the 6100 Trophy Truck Class. Impressive!

Hey guys, how do my front arms look? Oh yeah all you can see is the rear………
You better watch it again bro.. Dustin shows the front gusset kit they did and the rear trailer arm gusset . These two cars are not full race builds like all the other X3’s that were racing. 10 entries all CanAm’s but 3 Polaris cars. Burton’s car is running stock front and rear arms with gussets. Haters will hate..

I watched it very close, saw the gusset kit.
My point is the cars performance today was outstanding especially considering how little has been done to them.
I’d say they shut the mouth of many of the naysayers.
I have two cars being delivered in 3 weeks. One will be built for rock crawling and the other for dunes.

My 2018 can am max, I’ve updated a few things from when I 1st set it up

Switch pros are a must have if you have electric add on’s - So easy and it just works Great!

Hmm, People are being very quiet about these Can-Ams winning their first race. From the other threads here, I thought it took some time to work out the bugs for a car to be competitive and be on the podium.

No kidding.. it seems Polaris still hasn’t really got it figured out. 😂.

But let’s call it what it is then.. the Maverick R won the overall beating the Trophy Truck and 6100 class.

Pick what side of the fence you are sitting on - Maverick R won a race with 45 total entries, or UTVs are now faster than Trophy Trucks and 6100 trucks.

Great press for BRP either way.

These might actually work pretty well in the dunes, with no rubber band to break.

Do you know what type of rear tires you're going to run yet?

Looking forward to this ride report. 👍🏼

I ran into the owner of Bert’s at Supercross and he said he sold five Maverick R’s that day. Any chance they won’t sell thru? They’ll probably be competitive racing because of numbers regardless of performance which looks pretty damn good.

No Speed cars entered In any Utv classes..I guess they are all waiting for there speed key 😂😂
Dustin was cruising at 105 mph. Stock motor with exhaust.
I'm not sure they had enough time to unlock the computer and speed limiters, it may have hit 105mph with the larger tires only. Dustin said in the video his car is on 37" tire with plenty of room up front.

Like any production UTV you have to throw a few $$$ at them if you’re going to drive it hard in the desert and dunes. I am stupid and have at least 100k in my 19 Max. The car is nice but still has a rubber band.
I have a R coming soon and I figure for around 10k I can get it where it needs to be. A lot less $$ than doing a X3. I also have a deposit on a 4 seater and will just wait and see what CanAm comes up with. I figure a $500.00 refundable deposit I can’t go wrong.

I would love to know how you spent 100k on a can am?

It has to be fully custom? Like tube chassis or wild paint, stereo, long travel, motor work ect….

Break it down for us

$10k? Does that include a new cage to address the Bluetooth stock rollcage?

You are $10k just changing wheels/tires, adding comms, spare tire, tools and lights.

That’s no cage, no storage, no windshield no suspension upgrades, no stereo.

This thing is going to need new radius rods, several gussets, some parts we don’t even know about yet.
