One thing never talked about is actual ground clearance with a rider on it. I have a 21 850xt max and I was totally shocked by how low it is. I have the preload turned all the way up with the recommended 10psi in the tires and it still grinds over rocks that it shouldn't. I'm about 240 lbs and I have to pick lines very carefully in the rocky terrain we ride in.

[@danlux4954]

I’m glad I found one before they removed this motor.

[@hammerheartdan6311]

The reason why they produce a lot of heat is because they are extremely lean from factory to meet California emissions. A flash tune fixes that by adjusting the air/fuel ratio, at the same time, you can set the rad fan kick on temp (my outlander 650 never goes higher than 94°C). On top of that, you’ll gain performance since its no longer starving for more fuel and runs significantly cooler. Other benefits from a tune is that it will remove limiters, and reverse override if you wanted too. A cooler engine is a happier, more dependable engine 👍. Only downside to a tune is you lose a bit of fuel range but that’s a trade off I’ll take any day, and I just bring a jerry can with me anyways. With a tune, I can run all day in a hot summer day without taking a break, when before I would get “high temp” on the dash all the time and it would sometimes go into limp mode (overheated).

[@rzl07375]

Hopefully the 650 comes back, is was probably the best value atv without buying a CFmoto. It was priced like a Japanese 700 class but has waaaaay more power. It is still offered in the Renegade I believe.

[@shanedystenygagnon6513]

One more thing I do love my 650 but one thing was the ride height seemed a little low so I bought some coil spacers to lift it up a bit noticeably higher a little stiffer of a ride but in my opinion well worth it.

[@markflaugh2293]

If i was buying another atv it would be a max. They just make so much sense to be able to carry a passenger or take the seat off and ride solo and in my opinion look close to a single seat. Yes i know there is more weight and higher price but still better than a whole other machine.

Regarding the heat - Mine doesn't break into 3 digits (Celsius) regardless of the season. I trail ride, hunt, use as utility at camp and winter ride/plow. While i most definitely feel the warmth on my legs during the summer months, i have my cluster set to see the temp and haven't had an issue. I have a 2021 850 Max XT

[@AZBADBOYz]

I have an older 800 Max and it absolutely puts out some heat, especially in the AZ summer. Solution is always wear a 8" or taller boot and it's not a problem. Shoes are a no go even with pants on. Best to wear boots anyways so not an issue for myself and never a problem for the passenger.

[@BrickyardPowerMan]

My 1000 XT-P Max gets very hot especially on the right side. Changing oil is a pain! Ton of power .. way more than I need. Was after an 800 but if the pandemic taught us anything it isn’t what you want but what a dealer had!

Just recently sold my 2015 650 Max XT and absolutely loved it. Mine came with the storage box to fit in the void when the back seat was off. 99% of the time I kept it on the front rack. It is a great little storage box. Best ATV I have ever owned and sold it to one of my neighbors. It did get hot during the summer months on the left side but I just moved my leg out a little bit and it was fine. Only reason I sold it was because I bought a 2023 Defender Max Limited side by side.

Thank you!

[@viperxbr]

Good review and I can confirm it is a great machine. I am an owner of a 22' Outlander 650 XT(non-Max version). For the first warm season(I'm in Ottawa), it's done me well. Just over 54hrs/1100 kms so far. The 650 is an awesome engine for the riding I do (strictly trails hence buying the XT model). Also half the price on insurance comapred to the 850. I can say it does run on the hotter side during the hot summer months, riding in slow technical trails for an exxtended period of time. I've had a fuel pump fuse blow once, I believe, because of the excessive heat after a long slow riding trail. The saddle was very warm to sit on during that ride from the exhaust underneath. My understanding is the factory leans out the fuel mapping to pass emissions. I'll be getting a proper tune before the spring. I've upgraded the shocks to Stage 3 Elka's and that emmensly improved the riding and handling. It does come with a little tool kit but I've added quite a few more tools over the time I've owned it. Really do love the Terracross tires that came with it. Very capable in most conditions, even in the snow! Been out to Quebec for the first time this winter and they have great winter trails for ATV's/UTV's. So overall quite happy with it so far. Cheers!

Titanium heat wrap on the exhaust pipe can really make a big difference as to how hot your leg gets, even with all the factory heat shield.

[@robertsmith7424]

Be sure to put the storage box on if you dont keep the 2 up seat on. If your butt gets muddy and slippery, you can slide back into the void, and climbing a steep incline, you CAN FLIP IT, LIKE I DID.

Where can u find the box

[@tombrown03]

I’ve been looking at this machine for a few years now, but as soon as I was ready to buy one, the prices went out of control. I’m curious how the new 700 Max XT compares

[@user-co6wx1bu6n]

i had the first year g2 2013 650 max xt and had zero issues but mileage was getting up there (11000km) so thinking that i still had the original belt and battery and dealer told me 2022 was last year of the 650 engine i decided to get a new one ....exactly the same as i had ...difference between new and old...new quad: new dash display which is different but has the same features as the old display,being wider (2inches)and a front swaybar made a huge difference on off camber and cornering,power steering is a bit easier,engine is quieter and not as warm on the legs (ive even welcomed the heat for fall hunting but it was never "hot"),suspension is smoother but i find it a bit too soft with 2 on it back end bottoms out easier than before with the older quad(that will be fixed) ....now seeing the new can am i was thrilled i bought the 2022 ...i wanted the rear ITS suspension as double a arm gives you less clearance underneath the lower control bar plus even looking at it looks flimsy compared to the bigger piping used on the ITS,2022 can am has a stainless steel exhaust as the new one(2023) is ordinary steel, i love the sound and power of a twin dont understand why they downgraded to a single(less powerful)....because its narrower ? width was never an issue before,also the single is a heavier quad...hopefully the new suspension is better, Dirt Trax a comparision on new and old can am should be done ! thanks!

[@normanrasmussen7179]

I too would love comparison on 22 650 max vs new 700. I can’t decide if I should buy a just used one or new? Is the real world trail ride better on 700max?? People need to know dirt trax lol. Great videos keep them coming

[@1993kramer]

My 22 xtp850 came with a tool kit. They don't come with a panel for the 2up seat spot while the seat is off, but they make a nice link storage case that's cheap and goes in that spot perfectly. The clutch cover (and oil change process) is unnecessarily complicated for sure... it would be nice if Canam considered that for future models. There are shortcuts for both that are easier than removing panels as you mentioned though. Overall I love mine! Something to keep in mind, 850s and lower run regular fuel not premium like the 1000. It seems like guys that run premium complain more about hot spots and hard starts in the winter. I drove mine a lot during hot summer days and didn't notice any heat issues.

[@dirttraxtv]

Thanks for your input! I would actually buy one of these myself. It is a great machine.

[@andrewsbbq]

I'd run premo anyways from top tier stations with no ethanol. I run 91 in all my toys - quads to boats Realistically how often is a belt changed, and further to that how often are guys actually having issues with it?

[@mauriziopellegrino3634]

I also have a 22xtp and run 91. I've never had issues with cold starts. The dealers I've spoken to all recommended 91 for all of can am engines

[@BRPFan]

Can Am makes the best quads hands down! I sure loved the one we had! And it’s not a big deal getting to the belt like he said. Maybe for him it would be but for most people it’s not a big deal!

[@dirttraxtv]

Didn't say it was impossible, just not a job for an amateur. Someone with some skill or experience could handle it. Thought I made that clear enough.

[@dashcam3098]

My opinion on this machine is that when 2 are on it the suspension is way too soft. Add spacers on the bottom of the 4 coils, that is a cheap fix with a great ride improvement that you won't regret. Also, the belt on the clutch can be changed without removing the footwell, all you need is a flex 1/4'' socket. It does come with a tool kit but nothing to replace the passenger seat when removed. This is a great bike overall but servicing it could be improved quite a bit.

[@kbar6304]

Where did you buy the spacers? What manufacturer? Thanks

[@paulfaiman5601]

My Outlander Max 850 Came with a tool kit in the rear compartment stuffed up high and hard to see it in there. Yes it gets hot around the insides of your legs in warm weather. Ride with your legs to the outside of the machine and keep moving and you will be fine. Mine is the North Edition which may be better suited for cold weather riding and plowing.

[@dirttraxtv]

Thanks for sharing!

[@stephencostello1483]

I own the 850 Max XT myself. Your tool kits are up high left side rear compartment. Put the full aluminum skid. Does a great job. And she throws heat in the summer. But like you said it’s not unbearable just open those legs a little bit and catch a breeze. You’ll forget all about it. Added the heated grips , thumb warmer. bought mine in 2020. Covid couldn’t come at a better time in the woods mostly to myself. The wife and myself enjoy this quite a lot. Haul the beast around in a Enclosed aluminum trailer hauls my gear ,tools, clothes. Easy to move around single axle nice place to take a rest too on bad days. But the thought has come to mind. Side-by-side and a bigger trailer. Yes I’m going with another aluminum dual axles 20’. Not trying to jinx myself here never had a problem never change the belt. Got almost 2500 miles on it right now thinking about putting a new belt in before summer though I believe by the fall season she should be on the selling block. She never let us down what more can you say. Besides good luck to you.

Tire Pressure Gauge Electric Tire Pump. (Not actually purchased yet.) Spare Fuses I've only had my 850 Outlander Max XT one month, so just have 210 break-in miles on it. When I mean break-in miles, It's been all county gravel roads that have quite steep hills and descents at various throttle positions and speeds. That's to load the engine, i.e. pressurize the cylinders to press the rings against the cylinder walls seating the rings. I've mostly been riding my machine over and over a five mile stretch. I'm pretty much done with that now and plan on more distance sight seeing touring rides. Another data point for those interested; I got 21 mpg doing that type of riding. I'm guessing it might get better as the engine breaks in and loosens up, plus riding less steep terrain.

Only thing is I'm not a fan of Visco-4lok, I don't care for how it's speed/RPM sensitive and seems to be tuned best for mudding which is definitely fun but I'll be using my ATV more for work scenarios. I've seen videos of people trying to get over logs and things at slow speed with the Visco-4lok and it seems to struggle until the throttle is hammered down enough to get it to engage. Otherwise I really would jump on a Can-Am, if I could have it my way I would have an 650 or 850 Outlander loaded to the nuts for mudding and a Kodiak 700 to do the work and delicate trail riding.

Open your back storage it’s up high to the left the tool pack

[@dannymacdonnell251]

I had a 21 xt 1 up and gotta say I did not like the power steering I thought it was very numb in all 3 options .. The shocks are terrible in a bike priced that high and wished I had of known that at the time .. I beat the under body and frame to crap and bottomed out everywhere and I’m 205 pounds and I do not drive like a mad man … another thing that I did not like is that can am doesn’t extend the skid plate past the rear diff I don’t get that my frame was damaged pretty bad under the diff errrr .. anyway I traded it in for a 22 grizzly yes I know it doesn’t have the vtwin power but I find clutching way better and the power steering is the way it should be in my opinion .. and I can do oil and diffs in 30 min or less .. I wanted to like the outlander and it is a great bike but just not for me .. high maintenance atv .. great job as always and been watching you guys forever now biggest fan

[@dirttraxtv]

Thanks for the kind words. Gotta be honest, the Grizzly is my favourite ATV, followed by the Outlander so if you're happy with your Grizz you got a good machine in my opinion.

When it comes to self service, CFMOTO CFORCE is the most friendliest, just saying.

$100 storage box where the back seat is removed

[@kyceebellinumerable7745]

is this 4x4?

[@user-fx6ki2in3k]

I recently bought a 2020 Outlander 650xt with 129 miles on it. My first time out on it I was pulling a ATV brush hog behind it and thing were great until the engine power dwindled down then died. I spent half and hour trying to diagnose and restart it to no-avail. I took it back to the dealer where it was found that the ignition fuse had blown ( little 5amp fuse). I took it out again the following week to continue mowing and after an hour the same thing happens. I pull the coverings off to get to the fuse box and once in I remove the fuse that had blown the week before to inspect it, it was fine. Just for *hits and giggles is pull the next fuse over which was a 5amp also and find it was blown. That fuse was for the fuel pump. Once I replaced that it fired right up and has been running since. Has anyone else encountered this type of issue on a machine that is pretty much brand new?????????

[@user-co6wx1bu6n]

Yep mine died while hunting this fall on my 2022 650 and it was the fuse for the fuel pump...went to see dealer and he checked the parts book and he said there was a new redesigned fuel pump relay $22.00 for those ATVs so I installed it in fuse box in front and did over 1000km and no problems since....kept the old relay for spare

[@evantucker1590]

For the USA you can get a Renegade 650 so they still have a 650 in their line up, just not in the outlander line.

[@dirttraxtv]

Correct.

[@evantucker1590]

@@dirttraxtv of course the rest of the world has had the renegade 650 as an option for several years now. Even the 450 6x6. America doesn’t seem to get as many machine or accessory choices some other countries. It’s all market driven though

[@dirttraxtv]

@@evantucker1590 Really hoping we can get a 650 Renegade this spring. I wanna rip that thing super bad.

[@evantucker1590]

@@dirttraxtv I’d love to see you guys get ahold of one! The 650 is a solid engine with more than enough smoke for anyone to enjoy.

[@lancefrancis342]

Incorrect, the 650 is available in the Renegade 2023

[@dirttraxtv]

Yeah, that's already been addressed in the comments and in the description...

[@davereid5541]

Ride seat clip is very weak, you must have the 2up locked in or seat will blow off especially when trailering.

[@danlux4954]

What do you mean? Never had an issue with my two up seat.

[@grantl7579]

For 23 you can get the 650 in a renigade

[@dirttraxtv]

Yes.

[@markcomisky7106]

Get a Yamaha grizzly

[@dirttraxtv]

This or a Grizz would be my top choices.

[@danlux4954]

Sold my Grizzly for this. Needed a two up.

[@michaelmacdonald7342]

great advice for riders that ride alone - take a strap, I think anyone who is at all mechanical should take a extra belt. Doing a review and not even doing the research to tell viewers if the passenger seat area comes with a rack insert - Wow, talk about winging it.

[@dirttraxtv]

What good is a tow strap going to be if you're riding alone??? Clearly said for getting a tow from your riding buddy. Take your morning dump, re-watch and I'll let you take another shot with the insults...

[@mcmuskie2563]

Don’t leave it running with the rear storage door down or the exhaust melts the corner off the rear door. Oh ya and Bombardier virtually told me sorry Charlie! As I told the useless &$@#% on the phone, it wasn’t my fault it’s piss poor French Design!! I’m pissed off!

[@NiteHawk861]

Can you guys do your homework? The 650 motor is available in the xmr570 outlander

[@dirttraxtv]

650 is in the 570? 👌

Yep. Right on the can am website is the info

[@soundnessofmind7196]

​@@NiteHawk861maybe it's a misprint or you didn't read it correctly

[@markcomisky7106]

You're should getting allow your information before you do a review don't ask people for information

[@dirttraxtv]

It creates conversation, which is a HUGE component of connecting with our audience. I'd much rather humbly ask for and then read an owner's opinion than read a bunch of snarky BS comments from guys who aren't even interested in this machine but want to sound smart. Might just be me...

[@FSEVENMAN]

I hear you dude the front bumper does look cool but I think it's way overdone and I really think it fucks up the looks of that beautiful quad
