New 2015 outlander 1000XT making loud knock

Took the outs on its maiden flight this week. I noticed right away that when I excellerate quickly I hear 1 load knock sound, then when I let off the throttle I hear it again. I can make it knock over and over by quickly excellerating and decelerating. Took it back to dealer and showed them by riding it in lot. Excel-knock, decel-knock, excell-knock, decell-knock. They say all can ams do this, and it’s normal. I’m not convinced. Is there an explanation for this? Can anyone shed some light on this?

Also I checked bushings, all tight, removed tow hitch, no change, not shock noise either. Even made sure to secure winch hook so it’s not that. I did read something about the primary clutch engaging and making a clanking sound but that was on a post concerning a 2008.

Any info would be great. I hate having an issue on a brand new machine.:th_smiliefrustrated
