CAN-AM/ BRP Outlander 500 XT 499 (2012 - 2013) Description & History: The Outlander 500 is the smallest v-twin in the Can-Am XT series. It comes with the family heirlooms, as well: a powerful heavy-duty WARN winch, solid rear and front bumpers, hand protectors and cast aluminium wheels with machined detail and the top-notch Dynamic Power Steering.
Luggage racks can accommodate up to 136 kg (300 lbs) and this makes the 2012 Can-Am Outlander 500 XT a machine built to comply with the rigors of longer trips far from the main roads: a lot of gear and some extra fuel are essential for a serious off-road adventure.
Digital instrumentation, an encoded key and easy-to-use dual-ratio automatic transmission are standard, just like the selectable 2/4WD with locking front differential, reverse and engine braking. More optional parts and accessories are of course, available to expand functionality and looks alike.
