Are they the same machine just different plastics?

"The Renegade family has also introduced a new X and XC package for both the 800 and 1000 models for 2012, that features fully adjustable, Fox Racing Podium X shocks for even better handling, Tri-mode Dynamic Power Steering (DPS) for effortless steering even in the roughest terrain. All DPS units also come equipped with Visco-Lok QE front differential that gives even quicker engagement to the front differential. It also progressively transfers power from a slipping front wheel to a gripping one automatically with no buttons to push or levers to pull. The system also locks up to 100 percent with no rev or speed limiter with no wheel hop or drive line wind up."

Sweet.

"The Renegade family includes Can-Am’s Digitally Encoded Security System, the only factory installed anti-theft system in the industry that uses electronic key codes unique to each machine. Two keys are included with each model. The performance key allows the ATV to operate at maximum performance while the normal key limits acceleration and top speed of the machine."

That's pretty cool!

wow thats all i can say. the 800s were crazy enough, when is it going to be enough? i might sound harsh here but where is the fun in going 80 or 90 on a 700 lb 4x4? it is just too much motor in these machines...


the things are freaking sick though, id have one in a heartbeat!

The thing is, they handle just like a sport machine, if not better than some! i was very impressed when i took a spin on the 800.

A sport-performance ATV that weighs 700lbs is still scary, even mentally if "sport" = no crashing. What does it weigh exactly?

Renegade 1000 dry weight--687 lbs
Outlander 1000 dry weight--747 lbs

Not a huge difference from the 800 I believe. But they're definitely the lightest in their respective classes, I mean what does a full size Sportsman weigh, 800+?
