If he has a bomb 650 traxter XT, he won't beat you. Those motors are not the same ones in the the Can-Ams. They are good for pulling, but are not that fast. You should have no problem from start to finish. Now if he has the can-am vtwin, that is another story, but the one you mentioned, no problem. Two of my co-workers have the 650H1 and love it. I personally look for AC to keep that 650H1 motor around for a long long time and I wouldn't be supprised if they build an 800H1 as well as start using the same design for the 500 and 400 class. Just my thought.

 

You think so? Well, only time will tell. I'll wait till my machine is properly broken in and then we'll see what happens. As for an 800H1 That'd be something to see.
