2019 Can-Am Outlander Backcountry Review: Is an ATV With Tracks More Fun Than a Sled?

[@thegolfer5088]

All nice to play drive around with. I own a kit on a outlander 650. BRP made a major mistake when they designed those tracks. The wheel bearring wear out very fast you can’t grease it, you can’t replace the bearring only you havé to replace the wheel assembly at 75$ each and there are a total of 32 on the four tracks. Had BRP used a 141mm wheel at 35$ and can replace the bearring would have made more sens. I do not recommend BRP 360 track for that major reason!

[@mcmuskie2563]

Good point , something no one wanted to talk about. I was on the fence, now I’m done with it. I’ll buy a couple decent sleds instead.

[@FunkMasterJunk]

Man, for working in the bush in the Winter!? Thats killer. Collect a lot of maple sap and move wood with that Outlander with tracks.

[@wheelstandr]

Really good video! Most people (me at least) have no idea about these tracks. Saw an 850 xt max with tracks at my local dealer yesterday. It was the new blue metallic too, just like our 72 Monte Carlo. It was really tough walking out of there without it, but the combined price definitely made me walk out empty handed. I have a 19 Can am 570. Doesn't look like I better try tracks without the 850 or 1000. That means keep 570 and put on my new tires on Friday. Also ordered a Umatek (CVTech) Trailbloc Clutch from Peak Boys in Canada. Should be fun.

Absolutely monstrous setups for plowing when you run the 360s. Immense pushing power. Can't wait for my set to come in next week.

[@wheelstandr]

You're killing me.

[@KoryDaoust]

@@wheelstandr best purchase I've ever made for my Outlander. Unstoppable in the snow. Can't wait for real deep stuff to "experiment" lol

[@wheelstandr]

@@KoryDaoust Ahhhh! You’re killing me! For the love of God!

[@mountainadventures7346]

Maybe in Ontario.... Your not going to go where your buddies on mountain sleds are going with backcountry tracks in the west.

[@RTOutdoors]

Great job as always

[@mcmuskie2563]

Hmmm, I just read about the Track Wheels wearing out badly due to no Grease Fittings and 35.00 per wheel to replace. 35 x 82 wheels = 2,800.00 an average of two seasons. I’m out, plus the length of the trailer etc..

[@timking2194]

Great video helped me decide I just need the 360 lt for my needs.

[@ralphcasados8862]

Those tracks look awesome and fun to bad they so expensive

[@shawnclements7022]

How do the backcountry perform on hard packed snow?

[@bob15479]

honestly those don't look very fun.(compared to a sled) you could have a pretty fun sled for that price

[@juliancoleman1159]

i realize I'm kind of randomly asking but does anybody know of a good website to watch newly released series online?

@Trevor Louis Thanks, I went there and it seems like a nice service :D I really appreciate it !!

[@trevorlouis7041]

@Julian Coleman Happy to help xD

[@beaudaniel1370]

360 tracks.....🤔 what about the other 5 days can I use them then too?

[@jpowell9343]

Tracks on an atv will never replace a sled...lol Whoever said that never had a decent sled. I have both and the atv is like riding a horse in the snow, to high up and exposed, plus the suspension and the way it acts is a totally different feel. 35 yrs experience on both. Just a couple years with the tracks on the atv . Can go anywhere but just not the same fun in the snow..lol

[@stevenlaubach7222]

Is it possible to switch from tires to tracks and vice versa easily or is it a process to do or should I say once tracks are on are they on for good. Im trying to get an atv for various hunting Newfoundland,Alaska and Colorado and I would like to use tires and tracks depending where I go.

[@mcmuskie2563]

Carful cause the maintenance on the tracks is very expensive. Wheels can’t be greased and wear out quickly, I found that out and scraps the idea…

[@willacademic]

can you put the back country tracks on a kingquad?

[@mountainrunner6922]

Great review !! Thanks

[@yorkchris10]

I wonder if someone will offer aggresive tracks for the 360. With the right technology, they could do torque vectoring.

[@davidblalock9945]

The track system I'm designing will eliminate the underdrive issue that most wheel replacing units have do to the reduction in effective wheel height.

[@MrThidj901]

i hope you've succeeded truck school! This will put food on the table in the house that you own.

[@mcmuskie2563]

Hope you design includes Grease Fittings for the wheels, at this point they don’t and wear quickly. 35.00 per wheel often.

[@kendambra9220]

I have a outlander 6x6 with snow tracks ,I need more KZbin things on the 6x6 1000 thanks

[@vesperly338]

Fourwheelers with tracks snowmobiles with wheels dirt bikes with trike kits and snow bikes dang the future is now

[@SkodzGaming]

I think you need bigger fender flares with these tracks :p

[@MyOldSled]

Useful, But definitely not as much fun as a sled. I just did a video on ATV tracks on my channel. Great channel, great content, subscribed.

I’m looking for an outfitter who provides a day or two, rental, trail guide etc. wanna fly my wife and I out and spend a few days in powder. Looking for a turn key service. Please respond if you know anyone!!

[@mcmuskie2563]

I had the same thought, think I’ll add it to my Bucket list..

[@keithsage1593]

How's the steering with the tracks?..is this a handful for the girls? well done.The next time you go to Quebec tell the girls I said hello.

[@eddygoodwin7089]

in ten years the four wheeler will still run while the sled will probably have a blown motor in 2 years

[@MrThidj901]

??? you mean the opposite! many buddies own old skandic 07 08 20 inch and they still run great.

[@eddygoodwin7089]

@@MrThidj901 i guess it is a can am maybe they don't hold up to good

[@toben42]

I'd take the sled 10 out of 10 times.

[@brianyoung6583]

Nothing like getting covered in snow, a cruise speed of 14 mph and 20 miles to a tank of fuel..I dont know why they claim these are good for summer because they are not. The bike rides like a lumber wagon with these on...Just horrible..I own a set on a kawasaki brute force 750..Worse 4000 i ever spent.

Yes. Can plow your driveway and sidewalks.

[@painterboy454]

Plow will fit with this setup.

[@danhambrick6331]

For 5 grand you gan pick up a decent used sled....

[@philipp4109]

Dan Hambrick not meant for broke boys

[@corbysherman4710]

And you’ll be replacing your clutches after one weekend.

[@barrydowner7975]

tracks doesn't make sense! At max you get 30 to 40 miles from a tank of gas limiting where you can go.

[@brandonwright6578]

Seems like a waste really
