hey folks, I wanted to get some feedback from anyone who has a 1000 commander. It's not that important for me to go fast but when I mention I can get 65-70 mph on a nice flat straight stretch guys think I am nuts. Any feed back would be appreciated.

CAN AM 1000 max speed.

I have a 2012 CAN AM Commander Limited Rotax 1000. Unfortunately, I don't know how fast it goes with the black key, but the gray key is supposed to limit it to 44 MPH and the Orange key (which I don't have) is supposed to limit it to 25 MPH (normal construction site top speed).

It seems faster than my 2012 Brute Force 750 EPS and I had it clocked by a police officer. I saw a video on the internet that showed it going 81 or 82 MPH (it was a while ago and I don't remember). My speedometer said 83 MPH, but the police officer said it was 81 MPH. It might have something to do with rounding up and rounding down. In any event, I will never do that again. The Brute Force was sloppy and swaying. If it hadn't been for it being actually clocked by someone, I would have let off much sooner.

I haven't felt the need for speed with the Commander, but it definitely feels quicker and I believe faster, but a lot more stable doing so.:th_smiliedance:
