2008 Renegade 500 H.O. EFI
Renegade 500 |
In 2007, the Can-Am® Renegade™ 800 H.O. EFI
combined the performance and looks of a sport
quad with the toughness and capability of a 4x4.
For 2008, riders that want to carve trails or
head into the backcountry where other sport ATVs
don’t dare tread can now also choose a 500 H.O.
EFI version. Just like its big brother, it
features a powerful EFI V-twin engine, race
proven suspension, ultra-capable Visco-Lok‡
front differential and aggressive styling.

Renegade Key Features
Rotax
500H.O. V-Twin engine – This 80º V-twin
engine is a technical tour-de-force, and the
most powerful in 500cc class. The liquid-cooled,
single overhead cam mill has four valves per
cylinder and is fed by a fat 46mm throttle body
and two VDO Siemens fuel injectors. The
sophisticated electronic fuel injection system
automatically keeps the 800H.O. engine’s
performance at its peak regardless of
temperature or altitude. And starting is a snap,
with no choke required. The progressive throttle
ensures the power is manageable whether in
precise rock crawling or opening it up on the
straights.
Improved
Visco-Lok front differential – This
Can-Am-exclusive technology progressively
transfers power from a slipping front wheel to
the gripping one – totally automatically. There
are no buttons to push, no levers to pull, and
makes the Renegade easy to steer when navigating
nasty surfaces. No speed or rev limiter means it
is true all-wheel drive. The engagement point is
quicker for 2008.
RS-Type
front suspension – Developed with top
racers, this double A-arm set-up delivers
precise handling and control in even the
roughest stuff. 8.5 inches (21.6 cm) of travel
means great ride quality. Dive-control geometry
tightly controls the roll-center, especially
entering corners. Aluminum upper A-arm and
mounts reduce weight.
RS-Type TTI
rear suspension – The simplest rear ATV
suspension (75% fewer parts than competitive
designs), with a trailing arm on a single pivot.
TTI ensures zero scrub for a more stable ride,
especially in bumpy terrain. 9 inches (22.9 cm)
of race-developed travel and damping.
Motion
Control Shocks – Gas shocks for a smooth
ride with machine-specific calibration to soak
up both high- and low-speed bumps.
Center-cast
aluminum wheels – Rolled edge rims of
rolled aluminum are mated with sharply-styled
cast aluminum centres – the best of both worlds.
Holeshot ATR Tires – Optimal grip, especially in
corners, thanks to a cross-country pattern and
six-ply sidewalls.
Multi-function digital gauge – Its
compact size belies the large number of
features. Easy to read.
NEW!
Separated brakes – Just like on race
bikes for improved control.
Quad 60W
projector beam headlights – For
exceptional nighttime visibility.
