Anyone out there running a Can-Am DS 250? any problems with this model - what is the performance like etc. I have one on order just for the kids and me for rec use not racing. Confused

Thanks Dave & Blaster, I did read the ATV action write-up and the price was good too. Well, I have got it now, could not test drive it at the time so had to take the gamble.

Anyhow, I am very happy with what you get especially for me and my kids - plenty of pulling power to get up any hill, and plenty of grip - drives very smooth, handling not too bad, bit soft and can be tippy if pushed hard on dry ground. If you are looking to spin wheels at take-off etc Hmmm well forget it, donuts Ok in mud and gravel etc but if it is had ground you will go A** over T**.

So if you are looking for a good ATV to do trail riding and just hooning around this is a good ATV, can go anywhere, do anything but this is not a racing ATV

Cheers Laughing Smile Cool
