2008 Can-Am
DS 450 X
MSRP $11,199
In 2001, José Boisjoli, BRP President and CEO, set a challenge. 'Give me a sport ATV with the lowest weight, lowest unsprung weight, most mass centralization and highest power, and you have yourself a project.' This no compromise approach forced Can-Am engineering teams to throw out convention, and rethink everything from the frame to the front and rear suspension systems.
Six years later, the new Can-Am DS 450 EFI was born. The four objectives were met, and more than half a decade of relentless dedication and passion rewarded. Now, Can-Am has taken the DS 450 EFI a step further introducing the new X package.
