The Can-Am guys that hang we me "NEVER" want to tow a bike back when it dies out , they bitch and complain , they can pull but it is very hard on them , you can smell the belt burning ======== and they can't carry no weight on the back rack cause they can't steer when they do , they can carry an ice chest , but not a hog or deer
Raced my Buddys Can Am
Well the other day my buddy & I went out & set up his bear bait stand. We drove the quads in a few kms off the road & trails were everything from snow to mud. He had just bought a 2006 Can Am 400. We tuned it up before we went out & he surely knows what I've modified on my mine. Well after we were all done with the bear bait & back at the truck, he says wanna run er? I was like sure... however I told him I know he would take me as he is an automatic tranny... But we continue on.... We were out in the middle of no where, so we lined up on the pave, counted to 3 and went for it! I had my quad in 2wd but made no difference as I figured. He took me, but only to top speed. Once we were both maxed out, he couldn't pull & I couldn't gain.. He said his speedo was showing 54mph... Overall he may have got me, but I still know I have the stronger quad! LMAO. He was struggling to haul his sled with bear bait, so I had to take it & drag it in for him! hahahahaha

It happens all the time here , the Can-Ams "can" pull bikes home , the owners just " don't want to " because it burns up their belts ------- but this ain't pulling a bike down a flat road , it is going thru ruts that will get a bike stuck that is not pulling another one and for a long waysThe Honda’s carrying weight better, of course the SRA machines like weight on the racks better than the IRS Can-ams but that goes for any IRS machine. And as far as a Honda out pulling one of the big machines I just have to laugh. Never happen. Period lol!
mac102004 beating the snot out of your machine trying to pull a half ton of dead weight behind you. /QUOTE said:you right about that , them Can-Ams are heavy and hard to pull out the woods , I ought to know I have done it many , many times now ---
