3 Can-Am DS 450 features and benefits Rotax 4-TEC 450 EFI engine The Rotax four-stroke engine features the largest piston bore, intake valves and throttle body in its segment. The engine also inherits its top end from the tried-and-true Rotax V990 mill found in the Aprilia RSV 1000 R sport bike and mates that with a crankcase, clutch and transmission that are specially produced for off-road performance and use in an ATV. A free-flow design and electronic fuel injection means impressive power is blended with precision throttle control and instantaneous throttle response. No matter the temperature, altitude or riding situation, the DS 450 has the inherent ability to transfer power the ground at every rpm. ALTEC aluminum frame Outfitted with the industry s only lock-bolt fastening system instead of welds, the aerospace-grade aluminum chassis is as strong as it is lightweight and innovative. The frame s dual-pyramidal construction a design proven on BRP s Ski-Doo REV and REV-XP platforms was created by computer-optimized technology to offer weight savings without sacrificing durability. Race-inspired radiator grill Incorporating valuable feedback from its real-world racing development program, Can-Am engineers scalloped the radiator to make it more resistant to mud and debris buildup. Wilwood braking systems Mounted inside front rotors, the DS 450 s exclusive inverted dual-piston calipers allow for a unique knuckle / spindle / A-arm design. Computer-designed, wave-type front-and-rear rotors offer exceptional cooling and enhance all-around handling. Performance ergonomics Ergonomically enhanced with a narrow midsection, performance-type seat and smooth transitions, the DS 450 is built to please sport enthusiasts with an active riding style. Wide foot pegs with kick ups and integrated heel guards offer riders superb footing and protection. Performance features Equipped with conveniently detachable headlights and interchangeable front fenders.

4 Can-Am DS 450 X xc Package Caster-adjustable aluminum A-arms The DS 450 X xc features a shim-style caster adjustment on its double aluminum A-arm front end, so racers can customize the machine s handling to match their riding preference. Each shim represents one-degree of adjustment with 3 degrees to 10 degrees of caster adjustment. 46-inch width Riders who enjoy charging through the trees at blistering speeds need an ATV that carries that same passion. Enter the Can-Am DS X xc, which offers the perfect 46-inch (1168 mm) width and components (forged aluminum upper and lower A-arms) to turn any wannabe into a woods-racing hero. Adjustable-width axle The race-proven chromoly 4140 hollow axle on the DS 450 X xc is adjustable for width. It lets riders customize their ride, offering varying widths from 46 inches (1168 mm) to 50 inches (1270 mm) with.5-inch (13 mm) spacers. Cross-country-specific amenities The X xc has a 7.5-inch (101 mm) ride height assuming a 175-pound rider with gear that reduces the center of gravity for improved cornering capabilities. Race-bred suspension Fully adjustable Kayaba HPG aluminum piggyback dual-speed compression adj. adorn the DS 450 X xc. All three shocks offer adjustments for preload (threaded), high- and low-speed rebound and compression damping. Offering 9.6 inches (244 mm) of travel, the front piggyback shocks feature two separate-rate springs with a crossover for further tuning and maximizing performance. On the rear, the remote reservoir-equipped KYB shock supplies an ample 10.5 inches (267 mm) of travel. ITP Holeshot GNCC tires Racing through the woods is far less predictable than riding a groomed motocross track. Racers require a tire-and-wheel combo that is ready for anything.
