2012 Can-Am DS 90
The Can-Am DS 90 youth ATV delivers all the safety features you demand for your children, without compromising their fun. Your kids will love not having to shift gears or get off the vehicle to go into reverse, thanks to the CVT transmission with forward/neutral/reverse. They’ll also appreciate the smooth ride with better bump absorption from the long travel suspension. Best of all, so will you.
The 2012 Can-Am DS 90 for ages 10 and older keep kids from worrying about shifting gears or getting off the vehicle to go in reverse because the CVT transmission is a forward-neutral-reverse design. And long travel suspension makes for a smoother ride. Your children’s fun won’t be compromised – and neither will your standards.
