Yes but this guy wants to participate in extreme mud sport, then complain about the set up and maintenance requirements of participating in extreme mud sport.

How do you feel today with your XMR 700? everything's fine? I read that you can hear a squealing noise in the belt or clutch on your ATV. Can you hear that too? I'm going to buy mine in 3 weeks. that is why I am asking

@@albertolobo6608mine is already having an engine tick with 20 hours

I think it was about cost competitive. Because they could have built this machine and used the old engines. The new 700 makes basically the same power as the 570. They had way too many different sizes anyway. I just don't think that they were selling the models geared towards performance in the smaller displacements. People want the 850 and 1000 for mudding and extreme trail performance. They basically just eliminated the redundant 650 and replaced the more utility oriented 450 and 570 with the new offerings.

Does it steer easy without eps?

@@bakarikonte It has eps…

Thanks for the sub!

I do not have the noise you're talking about but I do have some other noises that's pretty typical for a Can-Am though

It's probably okay it takes a while for the one way valve to fail

Good to know. Good to know. Mine is still working but man it makes bad noises bin 4wd not locked

People are already breaking the engine mounts apparently. The thin material scares me because we like to push each other out with quality built machines like Hondas

@@MudPuppyOffroad are hondas really quality built or are they just to underpowered to hurt anything? to be fair ive never owned a honda so maybe im just ignorant.

@@motoboggin2619 it's a little of both I suppose. They're definitely designed to be maintained easier and require less maintenance in general. Some of that is related to the lower power output.

It’s not a HONDA but probably more fun to ride

Thank you for reminding me to do that I need to take it to a truck stop

@@MudPuppyOffroad It would be perfect, if you could make a comparison between actual weights of various BRP mud quads on stock tires, because you are quite right, "manufacturers lie".

Yes, thank you.

Yep that is correct my buddy Michael just told me that

Honda and some yamahas 1000%

@@MudPuppyOffroad I assume the Grizzly is very well built considering their popularity?

@@GNR325 absolutely but it has very tall gearing so it's not a very good at Mud machine also the electrical system is not a fan of being submerged frequently

@@MudPuppyOffroad I suppose Honda like the Foreman or Rubicon is the best for a machine that can be abused for a long time? Thanks!

@@GNR325 yes

most people with gen 2 are honest if they aren’t sponsored but with these new 700,500 everyone is talking good about them i think there POS i have had a couple of gen2 they have the flaws but there overall pretty good

Most youtubers take dealer discounts, i refuse

It's been holding up great and his gear 60% lower than yours. So for mudding the new design is far superior

The only real issue I've had is the front engine mounts brake

There is no comparison this has low gears and a front Locker

The suspension on this thing is significantly better than a Rubicon

@@MudPuppyOffroad I guess thats true. Just hope it holds up

You weren't going to get one away

That is where your belt exhaust dumps out. It goes up to the top of your snorkel pod and then makes a U-turn and comes back down this is how Can-Am does almost all of their xmrs. You don't have to worry about water going up it

Thanks

Also I have taken it into deepwater nothing over the the front rack area but when I give it gas as I'm getting out of water and give it gas there is a small squicking sound but goes away when I'm out of the water. Could this mean my belt is getting wet?

​@@MudPuppyOffroadI also have a squicking noise when I go in deep water as I come out of water it squicks when I give it gas but when I completely out of water it stops.what could this mean? Could water be getting in belt?

@@chadbec7245 only one way to find out go through some deep water and then pull the belt drain to see if there's any water in there

Oh man! Good find

@@MudPuppyOffroad they did have the 31 skinnys for $140 a tire a couple weeks ago, guess they sold out of those!

Dang it that's my favorite OG Tire

if you want a slow and boring shit for sure!

I saw your video... it wasnt very insightful sorry.

@@MudPuppyOffroad And yours was any better

You do understand that you don't own the right to a video like that, right? You new to Offroading and KZfaq in general?

@@AmotorB You do understand I wasn't talking to you

@G-Boyz.Outside Yep. How did you figure that out? 300IQ there man. Glad that your apart of the offroad community.

Doesn't have nearly enough ground clearance or suspension travel to be worth making into a mud machine they need to come a long way before I even bother testing one

@@MudPuppyOffroad Sounds like you'd change your tune as soon as you even go sit on one dude.

Sure... mr. whatever i bought must be the best... ugh

@MudPuppyOffroad not like that at all man, I'm not a mudder or a hardcore speed guy. I know the XMR and Highlifter are far superior factory machines for what you do, I also know that the Renegade 1000 and the Polaris Sportsman 1000S are way better handling go fast machines than what I bought, what I'm saying is up here in Canada I was cross shopping all the best modern machines, and after alot of research I had one that stood above the rest for my needs. I needed a 2up machine, that would be safe and stable to haul my wife, a loaded cargo carrier, and a hitch riser with a cargo carrier, and a rifle through the bush for multi-day outings hundreds of kilometers from home, and get me back home with nothing breaking. The only machine that had a build quality tough enough, and drivetrain and suspension reliable enough to not worry about is CFMoto, after all there is a reason they come with a standard 5 year warranty up here in Canada, and they also come with extra features free of charge like mirrors, signals, horn, hazards, 2 usbs, 12v socket, brushless winch, etc. There has also never been a single machine I've worked on that's easier to work on than the CFmoto, already did my initial valve clearance check and adjustment and the body panels, air box, valve covers, drain plugs, etc are dead easy to get too. I've simply never in my life seen such genius engineering, and I wanted to share that with you. Because last year I would have said CFMoto is Chinese crap, until I researched it, and now I'm a sold out owner. If I was a go fast guy, I would get a Sportsman 1000S, if I was a mudder, I'd get a Highlifter 850 or XMR, but I'm a trail/camping/survivalist guy, so I got a Cforce 1000.

Lol yeah yeah those of us that came from dirt bikes or still ride them just call everything a bike that you sit on

Wow that's trash... Made in Mexico can am lol

So the issue went from a failed crank position sensor. Now to a missing tooth on the flywheel. So they say found with boroscope. Into second week they got a replacement flywheel...oh but they don't have a puller tool now!! They haven't taken it apart yet! I presume a bolt came out from the magneto and took out the tooth. Its not really a tooth .its the slots in the end of the flywheel that the crank sensor pick up.Should have stayed with Kawasaki. More updates to follow. 0:19

@@mdw2006 that sad. My stuff doesn't go to the dealership... Ever. Idiots. But the kawi is 15 years out of date and has plenty of common issues...

Update. The flywheel assembly was replaced under warranty. I have pictures of the broken tooth as they call it. I will post it if I can figure out how. So the part that has the teeth on it is not the actual flywheel. Its a part that fits over it and it appears to be punched and formed or possibly cast. The teeth or let's call them tabs are really thin and I would assume at this point that someone dropped the flywheel at the factory and cracked the tab and it eventually flew off? So according to the service manager nothing came loose in the housing and took the tab out as I initially assumed. But you can't really believe everything you hear. I'm 2 hours away so I never saw it apart just pictures.

Decent, comparable to a grizzly

I just worry about long term reliability and how the electronics hold up over the years

Watch the whole video. Made that very clear

Ive had 6...

So far mostly yes. Front engine mounts failed. That's about it.

Because when you pay cash for something it's really nice to have the title in hand so you can just sell it when you get tired of it

@@MudPuppyOffroad They didn't just give you the manufacturer origin certificate? That's just as good as a title. With my rzr I bought in Georgia I just kept the manufacturer title. And the person that bought my rzr just turned in that paper for a title saved me on taxes

What are you even trying to say?

What a typical basic Can-Am Fanboy response. Everyone who really knows ATVs is well aware that Can-Am atv frames have been questionable since day one. So when you see Welds that look like these and brackets this thin it is concerning. It's been holding up well for me so far but I definitely wouldn't try to push someone out like I would with a Honda ATV. Keep bleeding in the comment section though it makes me money

@@MudPuppyOffroad hey, I've got nothing against Hondas. I've owned several of them over the years. My last one was a trx 400x just a couple years ago. It's an absolutely bulletproof machine. My buddy's son is still riding it. That's not the point. You're not going to be pushing anyone out with a Honda from the type of riding that you do, without a full mud modification on the Honda. The last group trail ride I did in Ohio, The only guy that was overheating with a clogged radiator was on a Rubicon and we didn't even do any mudding. We were just trail riding with a couple of puddles and I was on the only can am in the group and it's not an xmr. 2 Polaris, a grizzly, and a brute force had zero issues. So when is Honda coming out with a factory mud package and then we'll have something to compare? Until then you are either riding a machine that was built with a mud kit from the factory or you are riding a Honda that's been heavily modified and still only makes 30 horsepower. The only one bleeding in the comment section is you. Otherwise you wouldn't have felt the need to defend yourself to begin with.

I wish I had as much time on my hands as you do but I'm not going to read that long-ass comment... Unless you have some formal engineering experince this conversation is a waste of time.

What do you mean plastic? It’s the same as it’s always been pretty sure and even if it’s not it’s obviously fine I’ve never seen anyone have belt issues with a new Yamaha and I never have either and I beat on my 2018 extremely bad.

The older Yamaha cvts (450, 600) used a backing plate built into the cases, which in my opinion is a better design than the plastic backing plate on the 700s. Mind you they don’t have near the issues with leaking and inserts stripping out as the plastic backing plates on the can ams have, I’d still rather the older metal backing plate.

The power is unlikely to impress anyone who has had a 1,000 but the suspension will

@MudPuppyOffroad right.

Dealership service departments are so bad these days the warranty is irrelevant I wouldn't let them touch my machine.

@@MudPuppyOffroad How do you fix electonics that makes the enginne light come on then? I have a engine ligght on mine and took it to them to fix. I looked the code up online for ever and coundlt find anything about it.
