Savage. It really made me feel good in a way. Knowing service knew right where to go and was honest about the whole situation. Down to can am is diligently seeking the cause of failures. So that speaks volumes. Dang thats a very nice wheeler. Maybe the 14's will be corrected.

There has been some failures on the front of the 1000 frame that have been repaired and recalled. I feel like I ride mine hard, but not harder than it was designed for and mine has not broken yet. It has had the brace installed. The 2013 supposedly had frame refinements and support...your demo is the first I have heard of a 2013 breaking in the rear. It's kind of disappointing to hear to be honest.

The fella was only speculating that some of the chassis may have had to hard of steel.metalurgist may not got it right. I dont know thats not my field.but it would make sence. As some do it some dont. I can guarantee I wasnt going 5 mph when the 2013 busted.

Welcome back Darren. It sounds and looks like a trip of a lifetime.
Those of us in North America sure have it made, despite our issues.

A nice soaking rain would be perfect.
When it rains down here, it's a mini flood most of the time.
