Can-Am Shifting Mod

[stray]

thanks sarge, although i do find some comfort in blasting away at idiots! kinda reminds me of training with the army pugil sticks. do they still use them? maybe i'm dating myself by bringing them up, but i imagine they still do... or, maybe they sold them to the American Gladiators tv show.

Good ole' pugil sticks. My, my , my those were the days.

[BATTLEGUN]

LMAO. We still use pugils from time to time.

my shifter isn't bad at all, but I took down the info for both bearings and will definitly replace the culprits, with one or the other ( I'm in Canada) don't get my wrong, I still "hump" the gade when stopped on inclines, and when the quad is in deep mud. Thanks for the info guys!

Well I finally did this mod. At first I thought maybe it wasn't that much of an improvement but then we figured out if we pump the brakes it shifts like greased lightening. Thanks Stray for this valuable information. Here is a video documenting it.

Just an update. The quad's shifting is pretty much gravy now. If anyone has the problem of stiff shifting their canam this is the way to go. I've got some pointers for anyone trying it out. Just give us a shout.
