Not much planned for now, I already have the Beamtech for the front , I did not bought anything for the back yet, priorities is installing my GPS and I might get a windshield if they have it stock for the winter here. Other stuff I'll see as I go, this is my first ATV so I'll take it slowly. I already have every heating option available installed at the dealer along with passenger seat and the big rear box as this will be a trail machine until mud season!

I had to change the shocks on mine like 4 or 5 outing because I was bottoming out all the time. I am a big guy at 240lbs, so the quad did not have the ride height to clear the rocks on the trails in Nevada.

Good to know, I'm about the same size! What did you went with?

 

[Rangemaster]

Elka Stage 3 shocks. If you ride like me you don’t want to hit the frame too much. I ended up at the same time installing the full belly skids. But where I live most of the trails do have rocks on them since I live in the mountains.

Better pictures tomorrow if you guys want them! I'll need airbags in the back!

Having a quick lunch and buying my trail pass then going for a ride!

Nice, she is good looking ride. Time to get her dirty now. Just kidding.

 

[Tozguy]

Very nice, congratulations!

I went for a 55km ride, but since it's winter here, the mud is very very hard to find! Damn I love it, it's hard to resist hitting that throttle!

Everything is on and ready to go

I got the call this morning also, parts are in but it’s gunna be a week or so because they’re short staffed and have a few snowmobile to do also but at least is good news.

Over six months since I ordered, and still waiting ...

Spring has sprung, the grass has ris, I wonder where my Can Am is? Time to be riding...

I'm going to the dealer today to see what I can find out. They sell Can Am, Polaris, Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, Kawasaki, Kimco, Arctic Cat, KTM, Gas Gas, Beta, and about 10 other brands I can't remember.

 

[MoparToYou]

Well, um, solved that problem, sort of. They had this Sportsman 1000 Ultimate Trail Edition in stock, and I bought it instead of continuing to wait. The dealer had no idea when my ordered Can Am would be built or shipped. He had heard nothing from Can Am in six months. This will be my third Sportsman 1000, they're actually not a bad ATV.

I don't really know who's ATV this is going to be though. We traded in my wife's ten year old Can Am when we ordered her new one six months ago, so the new ATV was supposed to be hers. She can ride both the Sportsman 1000 and our Outlander 1000 when we go on our first ride. Then she can have whichever one she likes best, and I will ride the other one.

Sorry the can am didn’t work out for you, I think I would’ve tried another dealer. One that had one coming in. That’s what I did and it came in pretty much when they said it would, then just had to wait for the dash and ecu to come in. But happy you got something you like and hope you have good luck with it.

I purchased a 2022 outlander 650xt about a month ago and still waiting on my Display to come in. I'm from down in Southern Illinois. About 30 minutes outside St. Louis

How long did it take for your parts
to come in

 

[Sambo13]

Just got a call from my dealer said my parts are going to be here tomorrow or Friday

He actually called me back a couple of hours later and said it was ready yesterday I picked her up yesterday I had only been waiting maybe a week and a half I also called Can-Am when you call them they take down your dealers name and phone number and they log into the computer and I think that's why it happened so fast cuz I bugged him everyday

Catching up on this thread, it sounds like things are generally moving in the right direction! Good to hear! I'm afraid I just got some bad news - my May 28 delivery promise for my Outlander 570 XT just got pushed out to Jun 30. 😔
I suppose I shouldn't complain too much as I've only been waiting since March. Clearly it could be a lot worse!
Of course, it seems a little more painful with the weather improving and the trails now open!
Dealer is in Orillia, Ontario.

Good looking trailer! I'm guessing Bearco distributed by Action Trailers? I've got a similar one for my Maverick Trail!

 

[TobeO]

Yup, a solidly built trailer.

 

[JerryK9]

Finally got to pick up my new 850xt today, glad to have it in time for summer! 10 weeks to the day from ordering for missing parts to arrive. It does seem like there may be light at the end of the tunnel, dealer said they were doing a lot of deliveries this week.
