– 2012 Can-Am DS 90X Review

2012 Can-Am DS 90X

Or give your kids their first taste of performance with the race-inspired DS 90 X. With extras like double A-arm suspension, front and rear HPG piggyback shocks and the added toughness of black aluminum rims. It’s the perfect way to start their passion in style.

The 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.

The DS 70 for ages 6 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.
