The "Can AM" clunk was unexpected and is very annoying, something I did not have with my Yamaha. I have now learned to use the throttle in a way that makes it bearable, not great but bearable. The drive train is very noisy compared to my Yamaha
At moderate speed on hard packed roads , 30kph , there is a rythmic hum coming from the rear diff that seems odd to me. Again something that was unexpected.
The real disappointment is however the heat this thing throws, It is virtually un-rideable after 15 minutes of cruising around, my legs are very warm, my ass feels like it is on fire. I have also melted my muck boot on the left side .Hardly what I expected from a new $15k ATV.
When I asked the dealer if they have a fix for this issue, they claimed they never have had a complaint reguarding heat. What a pile of crap. He also suggested I am riding too slow. WTF ? It is so hot I cannot ride it without feeling significant heat. I am concerned about actually burning my leg through riding boots
This info on this site is fantastic, thanks for the tips. I do not believe a customer should be forced to come up with a solution to a problem that is so wide spread, how ever BRP appears to not give a s*!t about its customers
Has anyone tried the Heat Disipation Kit that BRP now sells. They claim the heat is a non issue, however they do sell a kit for heat problems.Bastards
Some things I really like on his unit, the power steering system is fantastic, the comfort for my passenger is great, until the heat reaches her legs. The fit and finish on the Can Am is first class as is the Linq system. Too bad I cannot stand to ride it. Any tips on heat control would be appreciated, she will be up for sale soon
