I’m running this quad with a wide open airbox (lid removed) and a Uni competition filter so I have to be cautious around the water/puddles. The quad is set up for MX and dryer riding, not bombing through puddles so that’s the reason I’m taking it easy around them and pushing where I can. Just got a ton of rain recently so there’s a lot of water everywhere at the moment and my little short track was pretty flooded out yesterday for sure but dry enough to hit my jump anyways. Had a blast ripping this DS450!❤ Thanks for watching, like and subscribe!
What's up man I just grabbed a ds450 last month. It's pretty nice. It's got a open air box hmf pipe and programer..Stock header. What all can I do to it? What was the recalls in 08? Mines a 08.
There were recalls for the clutch, I believe some cooling hose/fittings, and the rest where updates the dealer would flash into your ECU right off the top of my head. That’s what I can recall from back in the day, I bought a brand new 2009 XMX I raced that had all the updates already done to it. My buddy bought a new 08 ds450 and dealt with the recalls, Can Am kept calling him until he brought it back to the dealer to get fixed. He experienced a noisy slipping clutch after a few hours but the recall totally fixes that issue so if the clutch feels good is probably been updated. Can am was really persistent about the recalls because they didn’t want anything out there to give them a bad name right off the start and wanted to make things right ASAP so the original owner would of had to refuse the free parts and labor to fix the quad and I doubt that happened so it’s more then likely fine. You can do a lot with them, the 08-09 have the pink wire you can just cut to unlock the race map/settings in the ECU so check and see if that’s already been done. If not you’ll be surprised with the difference just cutting the pink wire alone gives you with your current mods. They are awesome machines and my favorite 450 ❤
