Rotax V-Twin 1000
A 80º 976cc liquid-cooled Rotax V-Twin powerplant is at the core of the Outlander MAX and produces an industry-leading*
82 horsepower. With an unmatched power-to-weight ratio, 65.1 lbs.-ft. of torque and electronic fuel injection (46mm throttle
body), the single overhead cam engine is as efficient and refined as it is raw and invigorating. Regardless of temperature or
altitude, EFI ensures optimal performance from the engine at all times.
Despite its unprecedented performance levels, the eight-valve engine remains controllable and offers useable power
for a wide array of riders and situations. Progressive throttle control means the power remains manageable in slow-speed
circumstances or during a flat-out sprint.
Dual-room, no-tools air box
Like the standard Outlander, the MAX lineup has dual-room air box design that is placed at a higher and more centralized
location for filtering and processing air. The no-tools air box features a dual-room design that improves the air filtration
process and the quality of air by capturing dirty air in one portion of the box and clean air in another section before it sends
the air to the engine. Along with the relocated air box the air intake is also higher in the frame to improve the machine’s
capabilities in the mud and water. Accessing the filter for maintenance and inspection only requires the removal of the seat,
console plastic and exterior push plate. The air filter is securely attached to the air box housing with an exclusive screw-on
system and push plate that work jointly to create a tight seal.
CVT transmission
The CVT system features a more secure 13-bolt system for an improved seal and better performance in wet conditions. A
dedicated drain plug is built into the cover and easily accessible if the need ever arises to remove water from the CVT housing.
The CVT intake was repositioned to a higher location in the chassis for optimal performance in wet riding conditions.
Automatic transmission with standard engine braking featuring high, low, park, neutral and reverse is also included.
Large radiator
The large, efficient radiator offers almost double the cooling capacity than its predecessor and keeps the engine running cool
for optimal performance. The radiator capacity grew by almost 14 kW (up to 27 kW) with the engineering updates. Engine
side covers also channel warm air back and away from the rider.
High-grade exhaust and silencer
The engine package includes a high-grade exhaust system with a durable end cap/cover that contributes to the exhaust’s
upper-class appearance. The system remains true to the Can-Am tradition of producing a throaty and impressive exhaust
note, yet adheres to strict dB and emissions standards.
SST G2 frame
The Outlander MAX 1000 uses the next generation and industry-exclusive Surrounding Spar Technology (SST) G2 frame from
BRP. The welded-steel frame incorporates proven processes and exclusive geometry for increased structural integrity, improved
durability and precision handling. The more efficient SST design offers increased strength compared to a traditional
tubular steel chassis, a lower center of gravity, better handling and requires far less components, materials and welds.
Engineers incorporated fewer parts on the Outlander MAX ATVs. This creates a more durable frame that can accept more
than two times greater force and has twice the torsional stiffness as the original chassis. This frame, more properly meets
the high expectations of the end user for both work and play.
59-inch Wheelbase
The 2014 Outlander MAX 1000 (like all MAX models) has an 8-inch longer wheelbase over the standard Outlander. The added
length allows the passenger to sit in front of the rear axle for improved handling and comfort. The stretched design also
improves the ride for single riders.
Double A-arm front suspension with dive-control geometry
The front suspension features a dive-control and anti-kickback geometry that positions the pivot points in space
instead of simply adding stiffer shocks and springs. The geometry also inspires confidence, reducing kickback to the
operator by locating the knuckle in the wheel. This front suspension gives the Outlander improved ride quality and
comfort without hampering handling.
The 2014 model uses five-way preload shocks that offer more than an inch of additional suspension travel for both trail
comfort and aggressive riding situations. Front-end suspension travel is 9 inches (22.9 cm).
Trailing Torsional Independent (TTI) rear suspension
Unique to Can-Am, the proven Torsional Trailing arm Independent (TTI) rear suspension offers increased rigidity and improved
suspension travel at 9.3 inches (23.6 cm). The TTI, which offers up to 75 percent less moving parts than competitive
systems, was designed to eliminate tire scrub and camber changes when the suspension moves up and down. This setup
improves ride quality and suspension travel, keeps the ATV in a straight line and requires less steering adjustments than
competitive models. The design offers lower pivot points providing geometric squatting for improved traction and the transfer
of power to the ground as well as a slightly different feel compared to first-generation Outlander MAX models.
Visco-Lok front differential
The Visco-Lok system offers a progressive, auto-locking design that is unique to the ATV industry. Riders can simply focus
on riding while letting the smart and fine-tuned Visco-Lok system handle the traction and four-wheel-drive differential lock
duties. The innovative system constantly monitors front wheel speed and, if it detects one wheel spinning more quickly than
the other, it progressively sends additional power to the wheel with better traction. It also eliminates wheel hop or driveline
wind-up helping it to remain transparent to the operator. The system offers 100 percent locking without the need for a rev
or speed limiter.
214mm disc brakes with twin-piston calipers
The 2014 Outlander MAX 1000 family features outboard hydraulic disc brakes. The front setup uses large 214mm disc brakes
with twin-piston calipers for superior stopping power. At the rear, the models use a single twin-piston caliper and 214mm
hydraulic disc brake that is located in the right, rear wheel.
12-inch (30.5 cm) cast-aluminum wheels
Can-Am designers equipped the Outlander MAX with innovative computer-optimized wheels. A center-less wheel design
reduces unsprung weight but offers improved strength. Durability increased in strategic areas while excess material was
eliminated in other areas to save weight.
26-inch (66 cm) tires
The MAX comes standard with 26-inch (66cm) Carlisle Badlands tires that offer superior performance in a variety of conditions
and terrain.
Standard skid plate
The high-strength skid plate is made from proven materials and is designed for supreme protection and has the ability to
slide over certain obstacles.
Industry-leading styling
The 2014 Outlander MAX 1000 features a modern, cutting-edge styling that carries the recognizable sightlines of the Can-
Am brand DNA and emulates the Outlander single-rider ATV. Can-Am engineers and designers added a muscular facade and
a more seamless makeup, especially when integrated with the composite cargo racks. Less apparent fasteners produce a
cleaner, refined look.
Passenger seat w/ Dynamic Passenger Comfort (DPC)
The Outlander MAX ATVs have specially developed passenger ergonomics to produce the most comfortable and consumerfriendly
two-rider vehicle to date. DPC means an ergonomically favorable passenger seat and other comfort features to
improve the overall ride and optimal seating position.
The taller backrest is very supportive and also pivots 8 degrees to help reduce kick back to passenger during acceleration
and climbs. Can-Am engineers also added regressive flex to the top and sides to enhance comfort levels.
The seat is also angled and formed to provide better “groove,” more overall support and minimize passenger movement
in off-road conditions.
Passenger handholds
The higher, angled rear passenger handle position allows for flex while riding and also reduces the overall impact to the passenger’s
hands. The handles also allow for numerous hand positions to enhance the passenger’s riding experience and comfort
level. Attached to the seat, the handles don’t limit rear rack space or prohibit single-rider comfort during one-up riding.
Passenger footrest
The foot peg angle and depth, along with a third row of grips, on all MAX models with the G2 SST frame create a comfortable
platform and improved lateral grip.
Convertible Rack System (CRS) w/ box
The Outlander MAX is the lone two-up ATV that comes standard with a Convertible Rack System (CRS) for transforming the
ATV into a single-rider machine. The transition literally takes just seconds and eliminates the touring look and feel when riding
alone. The fact that the passenger handholds are attached to the seat means they don’t inhibit rider movement or take
up rear rack space. The CRS system includes a small storage box that uses the LinQ system and removes the void when the
passenger seat is removed. A rear optional cargo box is also available from PAC.
High-strength multi-function racks with innova tive LinQ system
The cargo racks offer convenience and improved versatility. High-strength, reinforced composite racks replace the tubular
steel setup. The innovative racks feature an integrated anti-skid surface and elevated ridges for improved cargo holding. Engineers
also added numerous edges and holes for use with tie-downs and bungee cords. Additional predetermined “cutouts”
were also added for use with Can-Am’s exclusive LinQ quick-attach accessory system, which is adaptable and customizable
for various uses and products. The racks have a combined capacity of 300 pounds (100 front / 200 rear).
Water-resistant rear storage box
An industry exclusive, a huge 5.7-gallon (21.4-liter) rear storage box offers industry-leading cargo capacity and is located
beneath the rear cargo rack. The Outlander MAX ATV is the only two-up vehicle to offer full rear rack capacity. Riders can
access the water-resistant, sealed storage box even when the rear cargo rack is loaded.
1,300-pound towing capacity
The Outlander offers a sizeable, 1,300-pound towing capacity and a 2-inch receiver hitch as standard equipment.
Easy access for maintenance
Can-Am engineers produced a more maintenance-friendly setup on the Outlander MAX 1000. The battery was relocated
beneath the seat to offer easier access and improved protection. The rear brake fluid reservoir, solenoid starter and relays
were also placed conveniently under the seat.
230-watt lighting from headlights
The headlights project Can-Am heritage and also offer great visibility for trail riding and nighttime use. On high beam, the
twin 60-watt reflectors and dual 55-watt projectors give the Outlander 230 watts of visual clarity. The Outlander MAX 1000
family features the most lighting output of any ATV in the industry.
