I had a lot of atv's and for a couple of years now I've been wanting a Can-am 800 and just would not break down and fork over the money, well my lovely wife had this waiting on me when I got home from work last week. God I love her!!!!!!!!

lucky you. i want a wife like that when i get older.

 

 

thank god its not the renegade 800. they are extremely ugly. im not a can-am fan, im really good freinds with the people at my local Can-Am/Suzuki dealer and there are nearly new outlanders and renegades in there all the time for service. those rotax engines have an awesome sounds though, sound like a V8

 

but i can't argue that the Can-Am's are the best performing... i wish Suzuki/Honda/Yamaha would come out with something to compare to it, they all new bigger engines and maybe some nifty gadgets like the can-am to compete. but not with a near $10,000 price tag like the Can-Am

Dang you are lucky!!

 

I will be down at mudnats too, I have been working on my Grizz for the last two weeks trying to get it ready.

Sick machine.... I had a 2008 800 in camo, the gorilla rad relocate is a must on these machines! ....... Let me know if you are interested in some skid plates for it if you don't have them already, I have the number for a guy that makes some thick ass aluminum full skids and cv covers!

awesome. that came out the year after i got my mud pro- otherwise i would have gotten that one (since it comes with the radiator racked- i had to rack mine myself). congratulations, now you need to get it dirty!

 

im curious how the silverbacks hold up though. i know theyre amazing in mud, but hows the trail?

Yea she is a keeper, and I think the wife can stay around to.lol It is not the XMR it's the outlander 800r XT single seater with XMR snorkles and radiator kit installed extra, 1.5 front lift, back shocks just tightened up, ss212 14"rims with 30x9x14 silverbacks. The tires pull great in the mud but they will dig you a grave, on the trail they do good but on a road 40-50 MPH they have some wobble to them, wish I had the wides in the back but thats alright. It has been dirty but I keep it clean, had it up over the seat last weekend dose realy good. I've had a lot of atv's and this one is top of the line, I thought it was to much to pay for one but hell the price of the others compared to this one, lil more money = more 4wheeler and I love it.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By newdude · Posted

      No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.

      Active Grille Delete

      By jaszr2 · Posted

      Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.

      I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?

      Tire pressure for 37s

      By PBNB · Posted

      Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
