Can-Am Announces New 2008 DS 450 EFI
Posted by CanadianViking on Saturday, June 02, 2007 (02:51:48) (876 reads)

Introducing the 2008 Can-Am DS™ 450 EFI ATV. Its radical power comes from a Rotax® engine. Its ultra light weight comes from cutting-edge computer design and fresh ideas. Its features come from the input of MX racers.

It is the new benchmark for performance, handling and control – on track and off – thanks to the most power in the class, lowest weight, most centralized mass, lowest unsprung weight, and fully-adjustable sport-tuned suspension.**

DS 450 EFI Highlights
- Responsive and easy to manoeuvre, thanks to centralized masses and unmatched power-to-weight ratio
- At 345 pounds (156 kg) dry, it is the lightest 450 sport ATV
- New Rotax 450 engine is the most powerful in the class
- Lightweight ALTEC™ aluminum chassis with dual-pyramidal frame – 13% lighter than the best-in-class competitor
- Innovative R-Type™ front and rear suspensions deliver handling, control, and feel
- KYB‡ HPG aluminum body piggyback shocks with full adjustability
- Wilwood disc brakes: 182mm wave-type discs with inverted twin-piston calipers, 198mm wave-type disc in rear
- Performance features like racing kick-up footpegs, detachable headlights, interchangeable fenders
