Questions for can am w/tracks users

Recommended Posts

Hello all,

 

I'm hopping to get some advise from some of you who are familiar with tracks on atvs.  I'm looking at buying a used 2009 Can am 800r that would include tatou 4s tracks as well as wheels on SS rims.  my questions are:

 

What are your thoughts on the 09 can ams (good machines)?

How hard is it to change between the tracks and tires?(i would want tires for summer use)

What are any issues I should expect with the tracks? I've never used them nor do I know anyone who does.

Lastly as for as tracks go how does the tatous stack up, did they make many improvements in the last 7 years (I'm Assuming the tracks are 09 as well)

Lastly if it was you buying it what would you feel is a fair price? (very good condition under 700 miles)

 

Thanks for any light you can shed

 

Jay

I'm no expert but I did a bunch of research on tracks recently. I just bought a Polaris sportsman and the polaris tracks. First off the Camoplast tracks are the top of the line none better. Look up and call www.atvtracks.net they are great guys and will answer all your questions. The reason I went with the polaris tracks instead of the tatou 4s's was because the dealer had the polaris tracks in stock and most of the components on them are made by camoplast, Polaris and Camoplast designed the new polaris tracks together so I'm hoping they are similar in performance.

 

As far as removal and installation the anti rotation bar or what ever you want to call them usually have a mounting plate that attaches to the A-arm or frame. The tracs bolt right where the tire was removed and the anti rotation arm gets bolted to the bracket on the A-arm. So its a pretty simple deal as long as the toe-in is adjusted correctly it shouldn't take much more time than swapping tires.

 

As far as $ it seems the Tatou 4s go for around $3400-3600 new so used Id say worth $2500 in good condition?
