Awesome History of Can Am and a nice Ryker Review mixed in

This is one of the better videos I have seen. I am sure it has been posted here before, but I thought it would toss it out here.

Agreed. Hands down Fort Nine has some of the best videos out there.

That one has been posted here, but no problem. Many have not seen it. My comment the last time...seems to not be to enthralled with the company.

I don't know that I would say he is not enthralled with the company. I think he is simply, and accurately, pointing out the foibles and idiosyncrasies of Can-Am, BRP. He acknowledges the mistakes as well as the successes. Overall, a very well done piece. I had their 1975 Can-Am MX 250. That thing was FAST! It had more power than motors twice their size. He is also very accurate when he says the put all their time, money and energy into power, sacrificing suspension. Very True! And the ultimate reason for failure. Power does you no good when you're laying in a ditch.

I knew most of this. Still, it was a nice ride down memory lane. And I did not know that Ski-Doo came from a sloppy advertising typo and it should have been Ski-Dog! Amazing! How could no one have caught that one!? Though I really like Ski-Doo better than Ski-Dog! After all, the theme of the ad campaign was 'Just Doo It'!
