I love your machine, thank you for your videos. Very informational and you seem like a great guy! I’ve seen every video you have posted, keep posting! Love to see em.
I went 33”s due to unsprung weight. Gearing, braking and the total effect on shock performance is what I was looking at. When you go up 50%+ in unsprung weight, all those things come into play. If I could figure out how to retrofit the 2023 clutch setup to my 2021 I’d be a happy guy.
You can get the p drive clutch from any can am dealer. Go check out adrenaline cycles videos from one year ago and you can see that they work in the older machines.
From a braking efficiency standpoint, 1,000 pounds of extra weight would be comparable to 500 lbs in extra rotating weight. Max weight. according to the manual is 2,804 is max loaded weight or GVWR, with a dry weight of 1,870 lbs. If you add wheels and tires that weigh 50lbs combined more than stock, that’s like adding 100 lbs of accessories from a braking perspective. So you can add 900lbs to the unit total for GVWR. Now you are down to 800 lbs after adding 50lbs additional in wheel/tires. All that effects braking, springs, ride height, shock performance and suspension wear. It’s not a simple, I went to 35’s and therefore Can Am should just send them out on 35’s. Everything is tuned to a tire/wheel weight limit and when you go outside of that you affect performance and longevity. Carrying 4 occupants….their weight figures into that remaining 800 lbs. winch, roof rack, Jack…..they all count towards the GVWR. Hope that helps.
I’m looking into a xrs did you have to lift in order to fit 35s or is that stock height have 32s on my ds from 2019 but I’m wanting the rs 4 seater and love your max very beautiful
35’s fit on an RS 72” wide machine with no changes. I did follow shock therapy’s recommendations on ride height for tire size. You can find that video on shock Therapy’s RU-vid channel.
@@A5Off-Road shock therapy sweet I got the four seater xrs I already lifted it with spacers and did shocks and intake bov tune and have 35s within 2 weeks lol windshield light bar exhaust sound bar all it lacking is a real audio system and a clutch kit
In my opinion, the 35’s are worth it. I know that a little clutch work would give me back the little bit of power the 35’s stole. For the kind of riding that I do, I will take 35” tires over the 32” all day. Unless you’re doing a lot of sand but I have paddle tires for the sand dunes. I have not upgraded any part of my clutch and so far I do not plan too.
I am curious if that heavy of a tire and wheel causes any issues. I am adding 33" tensor DS's on a Venom wheel this week to my max. Total weight is 48 pounds.
People need to stop lifting their sxs by the center rear, you're putting stress and over extending the CV's... Put a jack underneath the trailing arm and lift one side at time...
