    Those old 450’s were good solid machines. It’s amazing what they could do. I hope the Can Am gives you as good a service.

    Ok here is my contribution. Honda 450 foremen with a 8x5 trailer load of River red gum. As I said it’s amazing what those old girls could do.

    Back in the day my older brother had Canam 175 scrambler.
    Would drive it to work at times.
    Lay down on the tank and hold it wide open.
    would maybe get 50-60 mph.
    after about 15 minutes of that and she would seize up.
    Let it cool down for 10-15 minutes and off you'd go again.
    Tough little bugger.

    The dealer is taking too long to uncrate your new wood hauler. Did you explain to them who we are? You might want to name drop Backwoods Savage
