Need help First time buyer

Hello everyone just starting the process of looking into buying a new ATV and am really interested in the outlander xmr. I never had the opportunity to test drive it and am concerned on what it will ride like on hard pack trails and just scootin around the campground any advise would be greatly appreciated

If your handy, you can get better value rigging up an 800xt, not the xmr. Personally I am not a huge fan of the silverbacks, excellent mud tire not the best for trail riding and expensive. It will cost about $600 to snorkle and relocate the rad and then buy some tires, good luck, you won't be dissapointed with any Can Am.

Your money would be better spent buying a 2012 1000xt and doing it up yourself. The price difference between a 1000xt and an xmr would almost cover the cost of the upgrades and you'll be able to choose them yourself.
