2024 Can-am. What in the... ?

[JACKAL]

So now that Polaris & Can Am are really throwing down big numbers from HP, suspension, weight, & price whats the competetition to them working on?

Ran across this video discussing next gen Kawasaki KRX machine ( delayed 24 / 25 MY) with patents reflecting a 4 cyl supercharged engine from thier sprot bike line that is 230 HP, completely new clutching design (still CVT based), and the SXS industry first electroninc sway bar disconnects like the JEEP / BRONCO high end models have and up to Triple internal bypass shocks for damping, rebound, & compression. Will be interesting to see what actually comes out, what it weighs, and of course the asking price for all that tech.

Kawi Dealer meeting in Phoenix AZ this October - rumors suggest it may be announced then. Dealer in video suggests the new machine could be in dealers hands by November 23.

Not going to lie…I miss my little 250EX. The little shaft driven quad with a rear drum brake went everywhere all my friends did on their 400EX’s. And I had reverse when they did not.

With the price so high I expect Honda will sell a lot more Talons and Pioneer 1000's. C

Thats Impossible the wait time is almost as bad as covid.

I have watched this many times, the R is way to big for the woods where I ride and the price is ridiculous. I have no need or want's for one.

I can guarantee you there are 20 people deep on a waitlist here to be the first one at the mud park with one.

Wonder how long it will be till we see rocks or logs wedged between the upper a-arm or that it hooked on something and tore it off the frame…or busted axel.

I was just thinking about this more last night…I wonder if there would be wrapping of grasses and vegetation on the steering knuckle or axel with this setup …

Gonna hit a lot of trees with those arms and the price is too $$$$$$

Hitting trees and getting hung up was exactly what I was thinking when I first saw the picture.

Travis Pastrana test drive the new Mav R. Running 98 down sand / dirt road steady, hit 102 mph top out over a ridge. Some rocky rutted trail footage.

 

[ODAMO]

Definitely will perform its intended purpose extremely well.

Interesting, although I found it a bit comical how they were going on about the lack of a belt, Honda's been doing that since day 1
