2023 Argo Xplorer XR700 LE Break-in Review | First Thoughts

Recently we took delivery of a brand new 2023 Argo Xplorer XR700 LE EPS from our local Throttle Powersports dealer. Just passing the break-in period on it now, we're going to show you some of it's features as well as things we like & don't like about it. So far, we have very little negative things to say about this beastly machine!

Can't wait to see more trail riding footage. Honest to god thinking of doing the exact same as you, selling my old Polaris & buying exactly one of these. The local argo dealer is not 10 mins from my house and they've got 4 left over 2022 eps models for sale at a really good price. I've joined a few groups & tried to find any reviews of the machine and it's been hard. If you actually wanted to know, directly from Kymco Canada, the claimed HP rating of this atv is 44.4, and the claimed TQ is 40.3ft/lb, either way it's directly on par with the rest of the pack in its class.

The only real kicker with this machine that we can find so far, is that it's hard to find replacement parts other than from the dealer directly. Also no aftermarket support for it just yet as it's still so new. BUT considering it's a brand new machine I don't think we have to worry about breaking anything at any point soon.

@@canadiantrailatvyes & it's been rebranded before in North America remember, so you might not be able to buy parts for say an "argo xr700" or "Kymco mxu700" but I've seen parts for the Arctic cat Alterra 700, I'm pretty sure the alterra 700 was also a straight rebrand of this specific atv, if not it was just the engine they used & cat built the bike around it.

u could of got a Can-Am 700 for $10,000 Canadian BoYs.............

[@canadiantrailatv]

Yeah, base price... The Argo has 4WD, dynamic power steering, LED running lights etc, whereas the base Can-Am's in that same price range do not.
