Thank you guys for this video. We (the SxS community) are looking for your solutions to some of the issues you mentioned - especially suspension related. I will be buying a Mav R in Nov/Dec (order arrival date) and will need your help soon after it gets to my house. I appreciate everything you guys do for our community.

On the driver's side there's a panel next your leg you can take off to put it in neutral

Actually, that is what the OVERRIDE button is for. Check your manual case, there is a tool in there that you have to use to manually put the car in neutral. Override and the tool are used in conjunction.

@olivierp4014

10 ай бұрын

The override is for reverse and other functions not necessarily linked to neutral. The panel on the driver side you are probably talking about is to access the 4x4 disconnect unit, which disengages the front wheels. You may refer to the operator's guide in the special procedures sections, it is the first procedure. Look for "permanent neutral".

Jon, was thinking the same thing on the Bottoming! Please tell us if we need to adjust our Pre-load (is that right?) Thank You!

Love the videos keep them coming and I’m very happy with my shocks now thank you.

Thank you for doing this video , you guys are awesome !

The speedo in these things are quite optimistic. I think they are about 10kph out. On the top end.

My Bronco Sport has some of the same Shifting Features as the Can-Am it sounds like! It’s an AutoMatic with Paddle Shifters that I can press to downshift (Round-abouts and Freeway wrap around an overpass are a couple places I like it most!

You have your's where's mine? Can't wait for it to arrive, I have a Talon and IMO manually shifting makes riding in the dunes twice the fun. Thanks for the great review.

if you run out of fuel and as long as you how power you can hold the N Button down for 5 seconds and it will put it in permanent neutral which will allow you to tow it also. if you lose power you have to manually unhook it at the engine.

Very Professional and derailed review of the CAN AM Maverick R! If I could afford one, I would definitely have one!!

Yes. You can’t adjust them individually.

Sweet ride but I can get a pro r ultimate for 8k less because the dealers are starting to discount the pro R plus it's about 5k cheaper msrp to begin with and they ain't discounting the maverick R one cent right now.

Not sure why some people are not down on the front knuckle look? I think it looks badass and I can’t wait to sell my Polaris Pro XP 4 and grab one of the R’s.

Very informative. The SXS blog guys got one and didn't seem to like it that much--or at least they liked the Pro-R more. Will you guys be getting a Speed UTV?

@Jizden_Mipanz

I think the main opinion from everyone so far is, it's a good car but not 12k more at the premium level than a pro r good. If you build the car to match all the options of the pro r ultimate stock configuration, it will cost you 52k

@@Jizden_Mipanz I don't know. I'm not going to say anything negative about the Polaris. Only one person in our riding group has one and he's an old man who rides kind of slow. We don't just dune. We go on LONG rides. Like Vegas to St George Utah, then to the Grand Canyon thru the Arizona Strip. All mostly tribal land and the tribes don't care as long as we buy stuff from them. The new Can Am is fast and I'm told, handles like a trophy truck that no SxS comes close to. I think the front end is dumb looking, stupid door pulls and no storage. The price is too high. I heard the navigation is worthless. The big screen is just for show. However, I also heard nothing can hang with it on a whooped out trail.

Would you get non smart shox model for racing? Tune it how you want? Had 22 smart shox that just threw codes guess we will see if they’re plagued with same issues.

Your race rack is one of my favorite upgrades on the x3, it makes a huge difference to the trail manners and handling of that car. Will this car need one or did they figure their shit out on the rack this time? Also, Does it have unit bearings for the wheel hubs like the pro r? East coast guys: we’ll definitely get trees stuck in the front end

@ShockTherapyllc

Glad you love the rack. This one looks better. Definitely less load on it. We will tear it down and find out how it does. It does have bearings like a pro R. Your right east coast will get trees in there.

Than robby in his next weekly video was a little angry and said justin did nt know what he was talking about lol. I agree with justin. Imo, robby suspension work good when landing a jump or thing like that, but will never work like a maverick or pro r in the big whoops while on the gaz... i think it will never win a desert race because of that. This new maverick tho, with this new trans is a winner imo

Justin and the guys can you do a show about the Kawasaki KRX and Turbo versus super chargers. Also, what is your opinion of the machines compared to the Polaris and Can Am.

Actually we talked quite a bit about it on a suspension geometry episode on camber. I love the car. Super strong. Great suspension. Killer rock crawler. Just under powered for west coast riding. Ana big fir east coast riding though. Excited to drive their now one once it comes out with the super charger

Cant wait for the trophy trucks to convert to this knuckle lol. Look at how good their steering issues are. Regaurdless, the knuckles are still ridiculous. Its not like we are driving them on super smooth pavement. Most people driving utvs on the west coast are dry dirt speed type and East coast are freaking mud, rock crawling, hill climbing tree running river bed ect.

What about track width wheel scrub on the maverick R?

It is true travel. At those numbers it has 3” rear and 4” front ground clearance.

If you have to run a wider offset for 35s doesn’t that cancel out much (or at least some) of the suspension benefits this design brings to the table?

There might be things that fail over time. I’ll point them out. But right now with my limited driving time I am very impressed. Even if I would have designed the suspension in a different way it’s still very impressive. Btw. We are working on the SXS blog guys car soon and you will hear all about it good or bad.
