At what speeds should I drive in each range?

I had an Arctic Cat 650 V2 prior to buying our Can Am Outlander 650 HO XT. The AC 650 V2 I could drive in low range from 0-45 mph, and high range from 0-62 mph, but should only ride in H when I was going to be doing at least 15 mph for an extended period of time, otherwise stay in L. How does it work with the Outlander 650 V2 engine? Should I be in H or L for average trail riding conditions ranging from 5-20 mph? Thank you in advance.

The CVT transmission in the Can-Am is much better than the CVT transmission in the Cat. I blew the belt on my ThunderCat with less than 100 miles on the ATV (and I sold it with only 250 miles on it). I've never had a belt problem with a Can Am ATV, and we've owned three of them now.
Low range on the Can Am is more for being able to control the ATV than it is to protect the transmission. If you feel like you need low range, use it. You wont have any problems. Just ride it and have fun, with the usual precautions given by Cardiac.
