I’m a noob, especially compared to the knowledge I’ve found on here. I’ve been riding since only February on an 2004 arctic cat 500, which I recently sold and bought a 2009 outty 500 for cheap. Absolutely addicted to riding already! I’ve put on 2500 kms as the weekend warrior lol
I work in the vet field, I only wish I was a mechanic!
I’m a buyers dream.
The massive power difference with the outlander, instantly had me reaching for my cash to pay the boy! .... and then reality set in and now I have buyers remorse.
What the hell did I just buy when I was giddy playing in the mud? Ugh
At time of purchase, I checked the bushings, tie rods, ball joints, bearings, the oil was good, no smoke coming out of exhaust, idle was great, started first try- every time, no major noises, tons of power+ cvtech clutches (primary & secondary... all the noob things to look at it, it passed out my noob eyes....
Now that I’ve washed all the mud off....ugh, what the hell did I just buy?
I’m going to take the stock skid plate off and really look at the frame... but does anyone have a clue as to why this has been added? (See pic).
Promise, I won’t be a pain in the *** and ask continuous questions on here... especially won’t ask tire pressure questions. I’ve searched everywhere ahead of time but can’t find an answer to why someone would “weld aluminum #$&@/ square &$#£ tube to....”
Please, don’t say bent frame, please, don’t say bent frame- ugh
I’ve come to suck your brain.
Thanks people - I’m very happy to have the power of a can am, I’m just thinking the one I bought might be a lemon [emoji23]
