Complete long travel kits provide an all-in-one solution, ensuring a comprehensive upgrade with compatible components. You don’t have to worry about component interactions and whether these truly do work together. Fusion kits blend the original Can-Am Maverick R characteristics with new enhancements, offering a customized yet familiar ride. This means upgrading certain parts of your suspension system, but not everything. Alternatively, building your long travel kit piece by piece allows for complete customization, though it can be costlier and more complex. So, if you know what you are doing and you want to achieve a customized setup, this is the way to go!
First of all, it’s up to you to choose the right type of long travel kit that fits your Can-Am Maverick R’s needs and your off-roading style. Bolt-on kits offer ease and simplicity, perfect for those looking for a straightforward upgrade without extensive modifications. Weld-on kits cater to those who desire a more customized and integrated approach, though they require more technical skill and a larger budget. So, depending on whether you want to keep these on for a long time or not, and your budget, a choice between weld-on and bolt-on long travel kits is necessary.
It’s up to you to prioritize kits made from high-quality materials like durable chromoly steel or lightweight aluminum, ensuring longevity and performance. Steel offers rugged strength, while aluminum provides agility without sacrificing durability. Check for quality welding and robust brackets to guarantee resilience and make your Can-Am Maverick R bulletproof!
Long travel kits can alter the Can-Am Maverick R's ride height and stance dramatically. A wider wheelbase enhances stability but may change the vehicle’s profile and make it more difficult to maneuver. Consider how this alteration fits your off-road needs – a 2-3 inch lift is often ideal for noticeable improvement without overly changing the vehicle’s dynamics.
