Is there any visual way to tell if a 2024 has the upgraded A-Arms? I understand the ones produced later had the change completed. The display and nav updates are done over the air, so that's not a big deal however, I would like to find one with the upgraded arms if possible.

There are some pix floating around the web comparing the 2. But I really don't u will find one still on the floor. There weren't a lot of them, and they were the very first ones off the line.

Ok I have gotten pricing that is all over the place seems crazy some dealers are holding onto the ADM, and some even listing it as "dealer prep" for $2500. What prices have people been getting the 2 seater MAV R RS with Smart Shox for recently?

The lower an arm is the weak link even ppl with 2025 models have had to replace them. Depending on your riding. Better to replace before you break more.

^^^ This!! I had one fold on me in the dunes, wasn’t that hard of a hit, and it was about a grand for the arm, axle, brake line, caliper, and plastic that got damaged by the arm and ball joint failure. New lowers were $1,500 for the Ct trail. I had them on order but they didn’t make it in time for my trip. I definitely regret not ordering them a couple weeks sooner. Everything is fine until it’s not with the stock arms, they soaked up way more than what it failed on but then let go. The aftermarket lowers seem expensive until you factor replacement parts in and then they make sense.

I’m tearing mine down right now for new lowers and some other things. I have the gusset arm on one side and a new supposedly strengthened arm without the gusset on the side I replaced. The new one to me looks just like one of the original non gusseted arms. It still has the fold spot on the rear bar everyone should be familiar with. I’ll get some pictures once they are off the car. Can Am has always designed fail points into their lowers, I wouldn’t bank on the new ones being much better.

Then they deserve to lose money.
A 2 year old rig, sitting outside in the sun and the rain should be 20% less.

All they have to do is mark it down just enough to make it attactive over the new model pricing. They wouldn't keep them sitting if it wasn't well predicited they will sell.

For they buyer? Go pay and get a new one if you don't want the one that sat in the sun and rain for 2 years. Or wait to see "if" they will lower their price, and it can't hurt to make an offer, you never know!

Yes, @craigstumph with Pro UTV Parts or @DBrunton with Ct Race Worx can help you with pricing and they have a sale for Labor Day. Both are great to work with and have saved me a ton of dough on my builds.

And you can see in these pictures the arm failed in multiple spots. The tip near the ball joint split open. My RZR, Honda, and Can Ams all needed upgrades. They are all weak stock. I’m not babying the car put putting around on fire roads but also not out doing KOH impressions either.

 

[HPnMORE4J]

I see Polaris has some older models still sitting too.

With the price cut on the 2025 pro r with the venting and other changes. I don’t see anyone buying a hold over 2023 model. Here there almost as many pro r used for sale as x3

Wow a 2023!

I am still working on pricing for a 25 2 seater with smart shox. Looks like anything around the 40K mark is an OK deal, from what Im getting. Pricing is all over the map

 

[burton]

The price will drop more as the 2026 hit lots even tho who can tell the difference they changed nothing other than getting rid of the black and yellow model

 

[HPnMORE4J]

There are some heluva deals on low mile machines loaded up right now.
Heres one with 235 miles

Agreed thats why I am shopping now. The 26's didn't do much for me the XRC may have been an option, but the mandatory speaker setup and the price associated with it killed it for me.

To me it feels like the only reason they didn’t switch trans in all models. Since it standard in every max is they have too many already made. Feel it happen sooner than later it just be the one trans

at least all my upgrades that depreciate 100% when you open the box will transfer over when it's time. Not the X3 to Mav R pain

Well hopefully you will get all the life out of those parts with your current mav r with out having to move them over.

Looks alot like the A Arms on my '18 X3 when it was totaled. Unfortunately, the frame mounting points got bent compromising the frame. Now I shop for another...

This wasn't that hard, nothing bent so far.
