Might have missed it, but did they really choose to not provide an "Oh Shit" button with the latest, greatest Smart Shox?

 

I have been looking and DO NOT see that referenced anywhere.

Tim

 

In Glamis an Oh shit button is a thing.

If they didn't that's disappointing. Tim

 

The active suspension is an area I was hoping for a bit of advancement, It will be a disappointment if BRP failed to take advantage of the technology available in shocks, but brought us adaptive lighting instead, which is something I think Tucker figured out was not as attractive as he thought.

 

They did say this is a Smart Shox Gen 2 but not sure what advacements were made.

 

Well oh shit button is on the questions list for sure.

It's a simple fix (software update) for the shock control module but harder to add a button to the existing steering wheel on this year's model. I bet they add it next year or two.

What? Who said sissy bar..?

Tim

 

Ok you can call oh shit, I call it Pussy bar..
I thought only Polaris came with the bar

CanAm has a handle

No beuno!

 

Just about every car has some type of variation.

 

How did we go from Oh shit button to sissy bar?

Oh shit button is for electronics shocks to stiffen them for 3 seconds in a panic. Tim

 

Ok Missed that
Been out on the trail today enjoying life.

It's all Barb's fault...


I just don't like the handle bar in front of you, personal opinion I guess.

The only machine I know of that has it is the New Pro R. So its a new thing. Tim

 

Really? Didn't know that.

 

Everybody is talking about the new Maverick R Suspension! A lot of questions and concerns! Here is some more info that may explain much! With over 300K... | By Nash Powersports | Facebook

Here is some of the stuff I was hoping to hear from BRP; Dynamix. Something on the theory of how they have improved the suspension.

I don't know if anyone can argue but the Pro-R so far has fantastic suspension tech.

 

Really a link to GAY PORN!

Mega is going to like that link...

I bet this thread will be crazy to read back through in 10 years.

 

I guess that answers a question for those wondering

Holy crap

 

has an aftermarket cage in this pic.. Will the stock cage still fit a 35?

 

I'm not seeing the cage be the issue it's the rear bed opening that I would have suspected.

The factory cage has to have a similar rear down bar as well.


Tim

 

Pretty cool it fits even with the air scoop too.

 

that’s what I was wondering too .I’m assuming they didn’t have to modify the scoop at all

 

Can you find anymore pics of the car?

 

I’ll keep my eye out on IG, haven’t seen anything more yet

 

I hope the Can Am Is similar. I just have not heard anything other than the 200 times a second.

Can Am has been really quiet/vague when it comes to their active suspension tech on this car. This makes me think they fell far short of Polaris (again). At this point I'm really wondering if Polaris has the tech locked down via exclusivity contracts with Fox etc.?

It looks to me that Polaris took the Active Suspension route to increase their car's suspension performance, and Can Am couldn't (or more likely wasn't allowed) so they came up with crazy suspension geometry/hardware to increase suspension performance the only way they could.

I have no data to back this up,,, it's just a theory on my part.

Polaris spent a lot of time improving the dynamic live value. It is all proprietary to Polaris. Can Am is only on their 2nd generation of smart shocks. The new system appears to be an improvement over the current set up. If the new system is able to adjust rebound separate from the hi/low speed compression that would be a big improvement.

 

Why do you think its lacking? other than the O sh!t button?

 

 

Form follows function suckas

 

edit, wrong post. GO Cam-Am!!!!!!!

 

I was looking for that video. Its a great inside to what happened during the design and how they were told last minute to change the hood to that FUGLY suspension and just deal with it.

 

The suspension is growing on me.

I hope it performs exceptionally well.

The X3 works good but not Polaris dynamics well.

Maybe this is the ticket for us Can Am guys.
