I ran out of the road at 45mph and flattened 3 tires, bent an a-arm and bent a tie rod. I'm very disappointed in Honda quality. This should have never happened. My dealer said this is normal for a wreck doing 45. This thing will do 65, what's gonna happen if I wreck at that speed? Hopefully Honda will step up replace all these inferior parts under warranty. JUNK ASS HONDAS!

Damn man, glad yall are alright, what the hell happened? I've got factory a arms if you need them but it looks like you've got some spares from the other machine:cool: . You've been rough on tie rods lately 🤣. We need to get together and ride again soon.

Dam gravel roads and I didn't have a passenger telling me to slow down. My wife says I can't ride anymore unless I have a baby sitter riding with me. Lol

Starting sometime in March my daughter's softball team starts playing on Saturdays. There will only be like 3 Saturdays from then until end of July that they don't play. So any Saturday before that or just about any Sunday, I'm game for a ride. I'm also off on Fridays. I took the week of the takeover off also.

All is good as long as no one got hurt.
Only takes money to fix the rest.

Now we know why they put ALL the Warning Labels on these machines.

Definitely need a faster machine if you want to get in the hospital quicker.

Yep, glad you’re ok for sure. It’s only money....
The tires were already junk and I had a extra a-arm. I took the 28s off my other machine and put them on this machine because I was adding superatv arms and 30s to the 5 seater this week anyways. Tie rod was $22 and I keep at least 2 on hand. I got both back together today so all is good.

Some of the Can Am's have a KIDDIE KEY keeps it unded 20mph.

Wife could save the baby sitting money get one for both machines.
Cheaper than hospital bills.

Ask her for a CAN Am even that would be cheaper than hospital bills.

Damn man! Glad you’re ok other then maybe a little pride, s*** happens though. Just think if you were in a “more capable” machine you would’ve been bored at that speed and been doing 65 Would’ve been really bad.
