After they took it off the showroom floor a year or so ago, it’s been in a somewhat climate controlled outbuilding with other motor cycles. Cold in the winter, but not below 40°.
They agreed to put in a new battery and I have negotiated them into paying for the full first service at any Can-Am dealer. Among the items covered are: change the engine oil & filter, lube chassis & suspension, inspect the belt tension, re-torque lug nuts/axle nuts, inspect the idle speed, set the tire pressures, inspect the coolant, the brake fluid level, and run a BUDS report. It’s a couple of States away, and I plan on going out and trailering it home. Any thoughts on what items should be done before I take it home, or things to check since it’s sat idle for so long would be appreciated.
I've ridden for over 15 years, but this will be my first Can-Am. I am looking forward to it. I considered getting a 2024, having some of the updates, and not having to deal with these issues, but I know I’ll be happy with the 2023 and I get to save a decent amount of money as well. Thanks for any input.
