And I am not talking about all the "well, my buddies frame" or "I know a guy whose frame.....". It just is not all you make it out to be. I have over 6000 miles of trails and rock gardens on my Outlander. The frame is still there, carring me with loads of power and quess what, no damage. I do have skids as all quads that do rocks and trails should have. I believe the Can Am's from 09 up come with factory skids. And I hope you enjoy your Grizz 700 and Popo 800. I wouldn't trade either, or even both, for my Outlander. And unless you are just dumb and blind, the Can Ams are the best of the best and have been for a couple of years. Not taking anything from the 850 XP, it is a nice machine, just not the best.

Best of the best... LOL! Where, in Cardiac's drug induced hazey yellow world?? Speaking of dumb and blind, must be quite the view you have from behind your yellow blinders, a typical diahard Can-Am response. The Can-Am camp will always claim lack of issues, but the facts are clear, the frame is weak and has problems, I'll find you 10 posts in 10 minutes from various forums that report frame issues. Say what you want about the King Quad and Grizzly frames but I'll bet they won't buckle after hitting a tree at 5 mph. Polaris/Yammie also have their issues but I don't shed tears when someone points them out. Yes each to their own, I do enjoy my Grizz and PoPo, and wouldn't trade EITHER one for your Can-Am. In fact, I chose the PoPo over the Outty when it came down to buying after riding them both. Can-Am truly has some good things going for them, but was curious as to just what exactly is Can-Am the best at?? Their only real claim to fame was power, and they haven't been the fastest since the T-Cat came out a few years ago, and then the 850. The 850 has already won ATV of the year in some publications with I imagine more to follow. I don't remember hearing about Can-Am ever winning an ATV shootout or any other kind of award in comparison to other manufacturers. But of course it must all be BS as "advertisement" dollars always dictate who wins, especially when Can-Am doesn't come out on top. lol Have a nice day.
