Hey guys,
I will be picking up a 2017 Can Am Outlander XT 850 this weekend. Stock. Looking forward to it! The thing sounds great from the factory. One of the nicer sounding quads from the factory I've heard.
Looking to do a few things:
1.install halos (got them from snorkle your atv.com) will install, shouldn't be any issue.
2. the stock shocks are pretty low level, I see elka makes a kit, I see I can get some fox ones from can am as well, but they are yellow?? That would not look too good.... Do the xmr shocks fit (in red) this unit? Guessing not...
3. I am going to eventually get the heated hand grips from can am as this will be used for ice fishing and running in the winter as well.
4. The factory cover over the handlebar for the wind deflects is lame.... I'd like to rip that off. Can I either put on an red XMR handlebar or at the very least put on the hand guard that come on the xxc or xmr? That style I like much more.
Really excited to be a part of this community! We currently have an 08 kawasaki brute force 750 that has been a really good quad aside the known electrical issues. Very powerful. My wife and I plan to ride trails.
