- We have approximately 280 miles on our sport xrc and wanted to provide our thoughts on this machine up to this point. I will admit, hopefully without spoiling the video that this machine has impressed us more than we could have ever imagined.
Enjoy the video!
Great information. I have an X3RC & my dad is seriously considering the sport RC. Your video answers many questions. Thanks!
BigSkyBusa appreciate that!!
Good channel for me, I got same combo of machines. Pros and cons for both machines. But both get most all jobs done. But like you said bought for wife and kids as I did and I keep finding myself in it and amazed at what it pulls off. Nice video 👍
Appreciate that very much
I did so far 3 rides with my 2020 XRC, milage wise I get about 2.5 gallons per 10 mile ride, this being on 3 different rides about 30 mile each total 90 mile. Love the ride and response on the XRC.
Sorry it does 2.5 gallons in usage for 30 mile ride, this being a 3 different rides about the same millage.
Yeah, i am starting to think its the gauge
For your information, the Maverick Sport XRC is 64 inches wide.
wayne owen thank you for the correction
@@WooPowOffroad No problem.
Totally agree on the sound. I love to start mine up for folks and let it lope. It's a V-Twin just like a Harley.
They have 3 cylinders in their engine
@@trevorbraden5448 Right, on the X3, but my Sport XRC is a twin.
@@RAFAZLIAISON awe cool......I wasn't sure I'm picking up the 2021 rc rr next month I didn't realize they were that different
I believe the Rugged Radio fits perfectly in the panel below the dash. FYI, as stated below, the fuel gauge sucks! Half a tank can mean she'll take from 2 to 5 gallons.
Great job Sir!!
Thank you!
That plate under the dash is for a the blue tooth stereo.
I have heard the fuel gauges do not work worth a shit on the maverick sports for some reason! so when you talk about it using a lot of fuel did you actually calculate how much it used or were you just going off the gauge just curious i enjoy the video👍
im wondering this also
I have the same machine, only had it 3 weeks and maybe 100 miles on it,
I believe it is a Superwinch that they come with.
Appreciate that...i have heard both warn and superwinch.
Thanks for the review. How does it ride compared to the Commander. The rear suspension in my Commander has always left me wishing for a smoother ride.
Terry Blessing it is better than the commander for sure! It is stiffer than i like but some of that could likely be changed by reducing the preload some.
@@WooPowOffroad THANKS! I'm hearing taking the front swaybar off helps to soften the ride also.
The dead spot you referred to in the dash, is for blue tooth audio controller. IE Rockford fosgade.
Awesome, thanks!
Paul Cook.....Actually, that spot you referred to has 4 spots on the back side to mount switches. In the European models, they come from the factory with 4 switches, one for heated steering wheel, one for each seat, and one for the passenger "Grab Handle". I'm sure you could mount about anything there. In case you're wondering, my dealer told me about the spot for the 4 switches.
Iv got a turbo S and definitely going with an X3 on my next one! I’m trying to decide between this Maverick sport and the rzr general for my dad. I know not many consider that a direct comparison but I think they actually are🤷♂️ both 64” inch now
Great video!! I’m stuck between the XMR and xrc like many...... I prefer the xrc package but the reverse chain really has me concerned in the xrc. Any advice or experience from your viewers to help me overcome my concern? Thank you
Reverse chain??
Yes. All maverick sports including the xrc uses a chain for the reverse in the gearbox except for the xmr. Chains have been known to be extremely weak on Polaris models, I have never heard a bad chain story from can am yet but it makes me skeptical as I drive my machines hard.
@@redlinemustangclub shouldn't have a problem unless your a mudder,just dont hammer on it in reverse, I have 900 miles on my 19 XRC with no problems.
You think you can buy the driver seat bracket and put it on passenger side to make it adjustable as well.
I’m looking at buying one thanks for the video
I am not sure, if you do this let me know if it is successful.
Will do, my wife is shorter I don’t think she would be comfortable leaning in and holding onto the grab bar especially when the handle isn’t adjustable
It happens to be 64 in wide
I’m looking at buying either a x3 xds or a Maverick sport x xc . I can’t decide. I enjoyed your video. I just had one question for you. I have a commander now and I’m tired of throwing money at it to make it faster or more comfortable. Is the sport faster than the commander? Or seem about the same. I just want to spend that kind of money to feel like I didn’t really upgrade. I’ve rode in the X3 and not real keen on the laid back riding style. I ride the same places as you and just can’t figure out which machine would be better.
Any Long term feedback on fuel mileage between the X3 VS Sport?
Does it have anything to do with being in low gear more often in the Sport?
I know the X3 fibs a bit on fuel capacity remaining, as it doesn't seem very linear.
How many miles average do you get per gallon used on each machine over the same trails?
I haven’t been tracking it that close to be able to compute actual millage. The sport definitely uses more fuel than the x3
@@WooPowOffroad Thank you for the reply, dig the channel, keep it up!
Would it be OK to request that you do track it more closely, and hopefully comment on your observations in the future?
First channel I have seen a single person have full access to both, and could give an accurate real usage comparison answer.
It's purely out of curiosity, and means nothing other than knowledge about the difference between platforms, but it is something I am very curious about.
Thanks!
Could you tell what brand back window do you have? Having lots of trouble with exhaust inside. Do have a plastic can am one now. Thanks for any help Please Larry
EMP, does great!
Have you got it up to its top speed ? Curious on what the RC top speed is ?
I never really did...but it would do 60 MPH
Thanks for the detailed review. Can you change the programming or swap a "key" to have a learner mode for younger and less experienced drivers??
Yes, it comes with two keys. A performance key and standard / work key.
@@WooPowOffroad Great, thanks for the info!
Cannot trust the fuel gage at all on the Sport 1000R XRC to calculate fuel usage! It may as well not have a fuel gauge.
Agree there...fuel gauge is useless
I don’t own one yet but I’ve heard the In tank fuel gauge is garbage on those and it will be broke very shortly and most likely does not show the actual amount of fuel the only way you know is when you fill up how much fuel you used Seems every person who owns one or any side-by-side the fuel gauges don’t work except for the X threes
I would tend to agree that is is very inaccurate
@@WooPowOffroad On my 2019 XRC, I can have 3 bars showing, and put 4 gallons to fill!
I'll beat you'll find the x3 and XRC Sport used as much gas when you fill them both up. I hear the XRC gas gauge is not accurate.
Terry Blessing........I have the 2014 model of the Sport XRC, and the fuel gauge is pretty accurate. I will say that when the gauge gets to half, it will only take about 2-3 gallons.
@@1gr8oil 2014 model? I dont think so 2019 was the first year of the xrc and the sport was a new model in 2018
@@corylee2261 You are very correct! When I posted that, I hit the wrong key on the Computer! My XRC is a 2019 Maverick Sport. Thanks for pointing that out.
How many miles are you averaging to a tank of fuel?
I have not run it completely empty and typically am in low at 6-8mph. So very few....like 20 to 40 miles or 1 full day of technical riding
Is it hot in the cab like the commander ?
No, not at all. Even with the windshield in front and back its not as bad as the commander
How is the engine braking.
Fantastic in my opinion
How would you compare the Sport XRC to the Rock and Trail RZR?
The rocks and trail RZR had a good low range but not as deep as the sport xrc. This helps with slow rock crawling and larger tires with no issues. The rzr’s belt engagement was poor compared to the sports very smooth low engagement point. The rzr was smoother over chatter but sagged quickly. The build quality of the rzr (weld splatter, sharp cheap plastics,etc.) was poor compared to the sport.
All in all, i would choose the aport over the RZR trails and rocks edition every time
@@WooPowOffroad awesome, thanks for the feedback!
Did you get a tool kit with your XRC?
Yes
@@WooPowOffroad what's in your tool kit? I didn't get my tool kit with mine?
i got a tool kit with mine but it didn't come with the tool to change the belt.
The winch is Warm, and i think the model is 4500S
Awesome thank you!!
The winch is made by Superwinch for Can Am.
Cary Kossaras Cary, i wanted to get a wireless remote for my winch so thats how i started my research and i contacted my dealer. They said that it’s a Warn winch and gave me the part number of 4500S. I contacted Warn and they confirmed this, then they gave me the part number of the wireless remote i needed. I ordered it and it and all is fine.
What is the part number if you dont mind sharing
Maybe Can Am is using both Warn and Superwinch? On my 2019 sport XRC it has the Can Am /Superwinch. Attached is a link of the Can Am accessory brochure. Both are pictured including part numbers.
Anyway they are great machines.

the empty blank slot on mine i cut it and put two switches in there.
Not a bad place to put some switches.
Dam. I was hoping can am was goin to step it up finally....plastic, belt burning, over stuffed ready to pop machines still. Good style and sound but I've pulled now 9 out of 11 can ams I ride with. Only polaris is worse
