2013 Can-Am DS 450 Xmx Review

The Can-Am DS 450 comes out of the box ready to race with shocks, tires, wheels and more designed to get you out in front of the pack. Setting new standards for the industry, it features the first no-weld, all-aluminum frame, hollow rear axle and inverted brake callipers. It's a sport quad ready to race with less unsprung weight, more mass centralization and, as you've come to expect from Can-Am, a better power-to-weight ratio. You demand performance from a sport quad. We invite you to ride it and tell us how we did.

2013 Can-Am DS 450 Xmx Features and Benefits

Class-leading power-to-weight ratio of any 450-class sport ATV - The DS 450 features an innovative, no-weld ALTEC™ aluminum frame and a hearty Rotax® engine for the industry’s best power-to-weight ratio of any 450-class sport ATV. Combined those features with other weight-saving innovations (hollow rear axle, aluminum parts) and mass centralization engineering to reduce unsprung weight and the DS 450 is unmatched in its class.

EFI with 46-mm throttle body, 16-bit CPU with 32-MHz clock speed

5-speed manual transmission - Competition-ready 5-speed manual transmission with foot-shifter and manual clutch lever. Features heavy-duty clutch and 9 friction plates with DirectLink mechanism.

Electric start - Push-button electric start for easy start

45.3-hp Rotax 4-TEC 449cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder 4-stroke engine - The DS 450 is equipped with a 449 cc 4-stroke EFI Rotax engine, offers the largest bore (97 mm) and the largest intake valves (38 mm) from the DOHC 4-valve head with 97 x 60.8 mm bore and stroke. The EFI uses the largest throttle body (46 mm), 16-bit CPU with 32-MHz clock speed and an almost straight intake path. With a concept referred to as ''Durchzugskraft'' or flow dynamics optimization, the engine breathes easily and can produce more power. The DS 450 delivers the best power-to-weight ratio.

WIllwood hydraulic disc brakes - Mounted inside front rotors, the DS 450’s exclusive inverted dual-piston calipers allow for a unique knuckle / spindle / A-arm design. Computer-designed, wave-type front-and-rear rotors offer exceptional cooling and enhance all-around Precision-engineered handling.

R-Type cast aluminum swingarm rear suspension - Features Chromoly hollow rear axle, extended-reach aluminum wheel hubs, aluminum sprocket, cast-aluminum swingarm. For the lowest possible unsprung weight and the most mass centralization.

No weld, ALTEC twin pyramidal aluminum frame - A maximum strength, no-weld, all-aluminum frame that uses a twin pyramidal structure. Major components are firmly secured with aluminum fasteners called lock-bolts. The frame is stronger yet much lighter than a traditional ladder frame.

Hollow rear axle - The hollow, high-strenght steel axle has been shortened by extending the lenght of aluminum hubs. The final design: a shorter axle mated with "spyder" all-aluminum hubs with precision machined splines and longer arms. The rear unsprung weight of the DS 450 is therefore reduced, which also has a significant impact on mass centralization and dry weight.

Detachable headlights - Remove the headlights for racing.

Race-inspired radiator grill - Race-inspired radiator grill (MC)

31.5-in. (800 mm) seat height - Low seat height provides a lower center of gravity and race-ready positioning for aggressive riding.

Racing kick-up foot pegs with heel guards - Wide foot pegs with kick ups and integrated heel guards offer riders superb footing and protection.

18x10-8 ITP QuadCross MX PRO rear tires - High-Industry-leading performance ITP QuadCross MX Pro tires give maximized traction on track surfaces, especially for blue-grooved. The rear tires are 18-inch motocross-ready tires complete with 8-inch (203 mm) black, aluminum ITP T-9 beadlock wheels with an inner reinforcement ring.

Adjustable-width hollow rear axle from 46 in. [1.17 m] to 50 in. [1.27 m] by increments of 0.5 in. [12.7 mm] per spacer - Many of top motocross pros are choosing to race with a rear width that is slightly narrower than the front-end width. This is possible with the DS 450 X mx Chromoly 4140 adjustable-width hollow axle. Adjustment from 46 (1,168 mm) to 50 inches (1,270 mm) is possible with 0.5-inch (13 mm) spacers.

Black aluminum ITP 10x5 T-9 GP front wheels

7-in. (179 mm) factory-set ride height (175-lb rider) - Straight from the factory, the DS 450 X mx is prepped with a ride height of seven inches (178 mm). This height, along with the ATV being “dialed in” for a 175-pound rider (with gear), gives the DS 450 X mx a lower center of gravity and allows you to rail through the corners with confidence.

Aluminum 6061-T6 taper-profile handlebar with square pad

NEW X -package coloration, graphics and seat cover - Graphics and seat cover exclusive to the X package.

20x6-10 ITP QuadCross MX PRO front tires - High-Industry-leading performance ITP QuadCross MX Pro tires give maximized traction on track surfaces, especially for blue-grooved. Up front, 20-inch (508 mm) ITP QuadCross MX Pro tires mounted on 10-inch (254 mm) black, aluminum ITP T-9 wheels

Double A-arms with adjustable caster - + 2-inch double A-arms with adjustable caster and camber give a 50-inch front stance

Extra-strength extended 1-in. (25.4 mm) steering stem with anti-vibe mounts - A +1-inch (25 mm) extra-strength steering stem with anti-vibe mounts comes standard on the DS 450 X xc and the DS 450 X mx. This gives the racer a better feel for the ATV while in an attacking stance out on the course. There is no need to buy an aftermarket stem to be competitive. Mounted to the steering stem is an aluminum 6061-T6 taper-profile handlebar with square racing pad.

FOX8 FLOAT8 X EVOL8 front shocks - FOX FLOAT X EVOL front shocks with dual-speed compression and infinitely adjustable air spring and 10.7 inch (272 mm) of travel.

Lightweight aluminum nerf bars with netted heel guards - Straight from the factory, the DS 450 X mx comes complete with lightweight aluminum nerf bars with netted heel guards. If one desires, the nerf bars, side extensions and heel guards can be removed with ease.

Black aluminum ITP 8x8 T-9 Trac-lock rear wheels

Aluminum front bumper, number plate ready
