    New frame picture.

    Here's a new frame picture that hasn't been posted yet. It clearly shows that the side frame rails are removeable in order to get the engine out. The fasteners are differnet if you look closely at the red circles. Also, you can see that the top a-arms mount similar to the YFZ top a-arms. There is one long bolt that holds them in. This is indicated by the blue line.

    That answers alot of questions!

    I am suprised how many other fasteners on that particular frame look like bolts not the lock fasteners:

    1. upper a-arm mounts appear to be bolted at the bottom and the other fastener at the top.

    2. The very top of the frame also appears to be all bolted bolted (<-suprising)

    3. the subframe (expected)

    Probably pickup points for pieces that have yet to be revealed. Things that would need to be removed for various reasons.

    Those bolts you circle in red, can not be removed. They are the same bolts used to fasten all the other ones down also.

    Can you confirm that statement with proof?

    Where'd you find that picture at??? Are there more? Is that the finished look or will it be a raw aluminum type?

    Looks like those bolts are removable to me.

    How do you know this?

    From the pictures it clearly looks like a normal bolt and nut compared to the other fasteners shown. It also looks like that top rail is just normally bolted on.

    Really? I went to thier site and it doesn't even show them as a Can-Am dealer. When was it on display? Was it just the frame?
