Welcome to the forum and the Can Am family, I have really only hear good about the specific new bike you got, although I do not have that one myself.

 

one question i do have is that the dealer told me that can am got rid of the break in service "10 hour service" for 2016 models. Is this correct?

 

My dealer said 50hrs

Congrats,

I followed the guidelines outlined in the owners manual for the first 10 hours varying my speed and avoiding prolonged WOT (if any), then changed the oil/filter and greased all 14 grease zerks @ 25 hours on both of our 570's

 

will it void my warranty if i just switch everything to amsoil?

 

There is a youtube guy out there his channel is Christian Amy. He's got some interesting things to say lol about his. He's all about Honda's so I'm not sure if everything he says is viable. Look up his channel and watch his videos you might find some things worth doing. I dont think the L models are the same quality as the regular outlanders.

 

Wow! I just looked at that Amy Guy. He beats the crap out of that thing. I not surprised it's always broken.

 

Haha I saw that guys vids. Why he bothers with can am I don't know.... He can't drive either. You see him run into that tree?? It was like really??

 

from what i understood the l model uses the same diff as the 800 and the same 570 engine as the rest just lacks a few features, i think that christian guy is a little off his rocker, he is comparing a rubicon with a manual trans to a cvt which is unfair in itself and the rubicon comes with a much larger price tag im sure it is tougher he bought a utility atv and expected to do renegade things with it.

 

he stripped his trans and ordered the chinese one ...where he found that the world will never know. he also opts to pay for things vs warranty i think hes a little off his rocker

 

To say the least. I think if he were to bring it in for warranty work they would laugh him out of the building. I'd be shocked to learn he followed any manufactures guidelines ect. You can break anything if you try hard enough even a precious Honda.

Not to hijack this thread just thought his point of view would at least be entertaining regarding the same bike.

 

Congrats on your purchase! It's a great machine.
And as far as that dumb ass on you tube that guy is clueless. If your Honda is so great why did you buy a can am? Better yet why did he buy a base model,put 29" tire on it and expect it to perform.If that's what he wanted to do then he should've bought an xmr. Keep thinking your Honda dinasor is all that. Idiot!

 

Keep the zerk fitting greased on a regular basis. Don't listen to the owners manual which I believe says something like every 1000 miles. Grease the hell out of it to save your self a boat load of money on suspension parts. Takes less than 10 mins once you've done it a few times.

 

congrats on your purchase and welcome!!! i have one also and have learned a few things along the way,,just ask. these guys are awesome on this site and they have helped me alot. this is what i have now with improvements.

 

no you didnt hijack by any means so been looking here a few things to add

i will need brakes
grease
spare belt on hand
anything else i should take off any throw away right out of the gate.

 

For hating it so much he sure rides it a lot.

 

Did you grease the rear driveshaft U joint zerks? Unless the L model differs from the regular outlanders, there should be 16 zerks total.
