Also note there will be a full ride review with video of the new 800r at Atv Frontier between now and Monday. So lookout for it...... Briefly I was told it runs cooler, smoother on the bottom and more power on the top. Plus the handling was better and the power more controllable.

 

i am really in love with the new outlander 800 i really wanted one before but the frame always scared me off but with the new skid plates and and stuff i may have to get one now

 

With a whole 9% more horsepower, the durabilty of the frame won't even cross your mind, apparently it didn't cross any one's mind in the company either!! Holy cow, more power and the same old frame. The same old frame that everyone complains about. What do they do, improve the one thing no one seemed to complain about, the power. That was the only thing that was already admirable about them! What were they thinking, more of the same perhaps? Someone needs to let them in on a little secret. They're powerful enough, now make a better ATV!

 

bring on the power... the other companies are playin catchup again

 

Power is great and all, but I'd rather have something that can compare to the durability of the 700 Grizzly first. Like you said the other companies are still playing catch up anyway in that area, so why not address the issues that the Can Ams are behind on now.

 

Looks like Can-am wont address the problems... but they have for some. I guess if your lookin for durability you mite have to make the switch to popo or the griz. Im in it for the power

 

they added a skid plate wont that help protect the frame??

 

yup

 

Anyone know what is happening with pricing? The website seems not to be listing the MSRP anymore. (perhaps because so many of us Canadians are giving them grief over the fact that the bikes are much cheaper in the States - and for no good reason.)

Also, has anyone seen discounts on the 2008 models emerge yet?
