FALL FUN Fall is my favorite time of the year for blasting down the trails, the fresh fall air is something to look forward to. There’s always a lot to do over the next few months. It seems that there are more Shows, swaps, rides and new model releases jammed in the next 4 weeks that us diehard Gearheads just can’t miss.

The riding in my area these days will stop you in your tracks this time of year, with the leaves all changing color, the cooler temperatures are a refreshing change and it’s time to get in as many rides before the really cold weather hits us.

In this issue read about a ‘bucket list’ ride through the beautiful Eastern Ontario Trails Association that Neil Graham penned. We have the Orange Crush build with a special Polaris General. And as always Nick was busy at the wheel aboard the new 2019 Can-AM’s released in British Columbia.

If you are thinking of a new Side-by-Side, ATV, Gear or accessories, then you need to check out the 31st Annual Toronto International Snowmobile, ATV & Powersports Show, October 19th through the 21st at the International Centre, Mississauga.

Can-AM, CF Moto, Cub Cadet, Honda, John Deere,

SLEDARAMA.CA S LEDARAMA.CA

Kawasaki, Kubota, Polaris, Suzuki, Textron Off-Raod, Hisun and Yamaha, too name a few, will all be there with their factory displays. If it has four off-road wheels, it’s at this Show. But hold on, there is so much more than just four-wheel vehicles at this Show…

If you’re looking for a place to ride there is so many different tourism destinations, off-road associations and clubs promoting their ATV and Side-by-Side friendly trails. The Kawartha ATV Association is conducting a youth training course right at the show. This is a hands-on course with both classroom and ATV riding. Spaces are limited for more information email info@torontosnowmobileatvshow.com. If you are looking for some excitement, visit the Indoor Events Hall sponsored by Royal Distributing, and take in an Ultimax Belts live Freestyle Show featuring Brett Turcotte, Brody Wilson, Kassie Boone, and Scott Murray. You’ll be amazed by the unforgettable freestyle shows.

So get out and enjoy the cooler weather before winter shows up. We hope to see you at the Toronto International Snowmobile, ATV & Powersports Show.

CAN-AM OFF-ROAD TEAMS RULE THE AMERICAS WITH ENDURANCE RACING WINS Can-Am off-road racing teams earned numerous victories and class podiums this past weekend in both North America and South America, affirming Can-Am as the brand of choice for overcoming long-distance and endurance events.In the United States, Can-Am / XPS Lubricants drivers Phil Blurton and Kyle Chaney outlasted stiff competition and overwhelming conditions to record overall endurance racing wins in Nevada and Iowa, respectively, with their Maverick X3 Turbo R side-by-side vehicles. At the 2018 Rally dos Sertões in Brazil, which wraps up Friday, Aug. 25, Can-Am racers own the top eight spots in the standings after three stages of action.

BLURTON REPEATS AS BITD VEGAS TO RENO CHAMPION

Phil Blurton (Can-Am / XPS / No Limit RD) and co-pilot Beau Judge won the Pro UTV Turbo class and UTV overall with the No. 944 Can-Am Maverick X3 side-by-side vehicle at the 2018 BITD Vegas To Reno race.

On paper, the back-to-back Vegas-To-Reno wins is outstanding in its own right, but when you factor in the number of competitors, brutal terrain, the race length and the fact that Blurton had to come from nearly 39th place in the class to finish in front of everyone was incredible. A 30-minute delay almost cost Blurton and Judge a chance at a win, but they rallied hard all the way to checkers and were rewarded with victory and the overall class points lead in the BITD series.

YAMAHA ADDS ALL-NEW GRIZZLY 90 TO 2019 LINE-UP All-new for 2019, the Grizzly 90 combines the Proven Off-Road performance and versatility of its namesake with a fun and confidenceinspiring 90cc engine and CVT transmission for entry-level riders 10-years-old and up to develop their off-road abilities. The youth model offers several Grizzly DNA features including mud-protection fenders, trail-pointed comfort suspension, front and rear cargo racks, and new Grizzly-tread tires. Parents can feel confident introducing their first-time rider to the excitement of ATV riding with an electronic speed limiter and adjustable throttle stop. The Grizzly 90 also gives new riders the capability and comfort to grow and adjust for years to come with a large plush seat and open floorboards. The New Grizzly 90 is available at a $2,999 MSRP.

03 CAN-AM AND XPS LUBRICANTS EXTEND CONTRACT WITH REIGNING BITD UTV PRO CHAMPION PHIL BLURTON Can-Am and XPS Lubricants, announce the signing of professional side-byside vehicle racer Phil Blurton Jr. to a multi-year contract extension. Blurton, the reigning Best In The Desert (BITD) Pro UTV Turbo class champion, just recently posted back-to-back wins at the prestigious Vegas-To-Reno desert race in Nevada to enhance his off-road racing resume and, once again, put Can-Am in the spotlight.

“Phil Blurton Jr. has exceptional skills on and off the race course. His racing results and first-year title speak to his talent behind the wheel and his dedication to winning,” said Jeff Leclerc, Can-Am race department, team leader. “Can-Am and XPS Lubricants can now continue to utilize his expertise to enhance both our racing and consumer efforts. At the same time, it rewards him for his success and gives him some peace of mind and security moving forward.”

Blurton, who competes in the No. 944 Can-Am / XPS / No Limit RD sponsored Maverick X3 Turbo R side-by-side vehicle has been the hottest name in the industry since he started competition racing full time in 2017. He literally burst on to the side-by-side vehicle racing scene, winning the 2017 BITD Rookie of the Year award and the 2017 BITD Pro UTV Turbo class title. He and co-pilot Beau Judge’s successive victories at both the prominent UTV World Championships and Vegas-To-Reno events, as well as three solid runner-up finishes, over the last two seasons have already made Blurton one of the most familiar names in the sport.

Along with new Can-Am racing and XPS Lubricants ambassador agreements, Blurton and Philip Blurton Sr., along with the championship-winning Can-Am Maverick X3 Turbo R race vehicle, will attend the BRP CLUB (dealer event) Sept. 9, in Denver, Colo.

WIENEN WINS SIXTH ATV MX RACING TITLE ABOARD YAMAHA’S YFZ450R Yamaha Racing topped the podium at Loretta Lynn’s Ranch in Hurricane Mills, Tennessee, as Chad Wienen recaptured his AMA Pro ATV MX title to claim his sixth career championship, and Thomas Brown took third overall in the series, both on Yamaha’s YFZ450R – the most technologically advanced Proven Off-Road sport ATV in the market. Wienen is only the second among all-time ATV motocross racers to earn six championships, solidifying his position as the most successful ATV racer of the 21st century.

Wienen bested the competition with Yamaha’s race-proven, Assembled-in-USA, YFZ450R sport ATV, earning himself the $10,000 bLU cRU championship bonus. He was the only Pro ATV MX racer this season to finish every moto race no lower than fourth, and was only one of two racers to finish on the podium in every round. Thanks to the unmatched consistency and performance of the YFZ450R, Wienen has finished 71 consecutive races on the podium.

Thomas Brown also found success on his TBrown 84 Training / CST Tires YFZ450R this year, finishing thirdoverall with 326 points, marking his fifth podium season in his Pro ATV MX career. He finished third or higher five t imes this season, and was one of only three racers with a first place finish, which he earned at RedBud in Buchanan, Michigan.

In cross country ATV racing, Yamaha factory-supported racer and three-time GNCC Pro-class champion Walker Fowler continues to chase his fourth-straight XC1 Pro ATV championship, and the $10,000 bLU cRU championship bonus on his WFR / GBC Yamaha YFZ450R. With 226 points and five first-place finishes, Fowler leads with 34 points after nine rounds in the 13-round series.

Joining the Havoc X are the Havoc and Havoc Backcountry Edition, and the Wildcat XX receives more horsepower and sees the addition of the Wildcat XX LTD to the line.

The 2019 Havoc X is a SxS for riders who want to push the limits of adventure on the trails and get hard work done around the homestead. With its 100HP EFI engine, class-leading suspension – now featuring FOX® 2.5 PODIUM QS3 shocks with compression adjustment -- 13 inches of ground clearance, industry-first extended cab for additional storage space, classleading 2,000-lb towing capacity, and 600-lb cargo box, the Havoc X continues to create a stir in the SxS marketplace. The Havoc X is offered in Ballistic Bronze with a MSRP of $17,799. For 2019, the Havoc line also added high-bolstered bench seats for improved ergonomics and comfort, and welcomed two new models, the Havoc and Havoc Backcountry Edition.

The new Havoc Backcountry Edition is perfect for recreational riders. The vehicle features a standard roof and hood rack, and its exclusive styling features a Bright White with Orange color with Backcountry

badging. Recreation riders will enjoy new high-bolstered seats which provide more space and all-day comfort for long hours on the trail. The Havoc Backcountry Edition retails for $17,799.

Farmers and ranchers will appreciate the new Havoc base model. With its 100HP EFI engine providing power for the toughest tasks, standard Electronic Power Steering (EPS), class-leading 12.8-inch front suspension travel, 2,000-lb towing capacity, 24-cu-ft of storage with extended cab, and 600-lb cargo box, the vehicle is a strong and reliable work partner. The 2019 Havoc retails for $16,299 and is available in Fire Red. Earlier this year, the high-performance SxS market changed with the introduction of the Textron Off Road Wildcat XX. Designed in collaboration with off-road racing legend Robby Gordon, the Wildcat XX is built for a superior ride in every aspect. The off-road racing-inspired suspension delivers best-inclass handling with more than 18 inches of front and rear travel. The FOX 2.5 PODIUM QS3 Shocks with Bottom-Out Control are precision-tuned at the factory with the flexibility to absorb and smooth out the most challenging rides.

For 2019, the Wildcat XX gets an upgrade in horsepower to 130HP, and is still the

highest horsepower, naturally aspirated vehicle in its class. The vehicle is offered in Bright White with a MSRP of $20,699.

New for 2019, the Wildcat XX LTD sports all the features of the Wildcat XX with several additions that make it even easier to take it from the showroom straight to the trail. To protect the vehicle from brush and other trail hazards, the vehicle features front and rear bumpers. Protection for occupants include a half windshield and heavy-duty, marinegrade Bimini Roof featuring a built-in roll-up top with a sun screen for nice days. Riders also can listen to their favorite tunes while cruising the trails with the vehicle’s factoryinstalled SSV® stereo system. For superior weather resistance, the audio system includes all marine-grade components, including an integrated amp, two Kicker® speakers, custom enclosures and wiring harness. The system is controlled with a Bluetooth® controller and LCD display that includes an AM/FM tuner and AUX input.

The new Wildcat XX LTD is available in Jet Black and retails for $21,999.

All Havoc and Wildcat XX models are proudly built in Thief River Falls, Minn. and will be available in dealerships this fall. For more information, visit a local Textron Off Road dealer, or go to TextronOffRoad.com

06 NEW ALTERRA 570 HEADLINES TEXTRON OFF ROAD’S 2019 ATV MODEL LINEUP Textron Specialized Vehicles Inc., announced new Textron Off Road ATVs for the 2019 model year, led by the new Alterra™ 570 ATV. The 2019 lineup also includes an updated Alterra 700 line powered by the new Textron Motors 700 engine for greater power and performance.

ALTERRA 570

New for 2019, the new Textron Off Road Alterra 570 ATV lineup introduces three new machines -- Alterra 570, 570 EPS and 570 XT -- into the 500 class that is the heart of the ATV sector. Perfect for trail riding, farm work and everything in-between, the vehicles are similar to their higher-powered family member, the Alterra 700, offering the same attractive styling and class-leading suspension travel.

Powering the Alterra 570 models is a 545cc, single-cylinder, closedloop EFI engine that offers plenty of power to cruise down the trails and get tough jobs done. The Alterra 570’s class-leading 10 inches of front and rear suspension travel, 11 inches of ground clearance, and five-position adjustable front and rear springs provide exceptional ride quality, comfort and ergonomics.

Operators also will appreciate the Rapid Traction System (RTS) on the 570 Base and EPS models, and the Electronic Locking 4WD (EL4) on the 570 XT model. Located on the right handlebar for easy use, the RTS and EL4 technologies enable the rider to activate 4WD while the vehicle is in motion. The systems enable operators to easily switch from 2WD to 4WD while keeping both hands on the handlebars. In addition, the XT model’s EL4 system is electronically controlled, giving the operator the ability to switch on-the-fly between 2WD,4WD and 4WD lock, for ultimate versatility in all different types of driving conditions.

For towing and hauling, the models are equipped with a 2-inch receiver hitch and rugged, steel racks with unlimited tie-down locations. To ensure reliable operation, the battery is located under the seat for protection from mud and debris.

ATV WORLD MAGAZINE • VOL 15 • ISSUE 4

ALTERRA 700

For increased performance and reduced weight, the 2019 Alterra 700 vehicle lineup now boasts an updated Textron Motors 700 engine that is 1.7 inches narrower and 12.4 pounds lighter than previous models, so the vehicles can accelerate harder, stop faster, corner better, land smoother, and climb quicker. This was accomplished by reducing the engine’s rotational mass by 30 percent. The reduced rotational mass provides a better throttle response and a fasterrevving engine for quicker acceleration. The addition of a new camshaft grind also improves throttle response and stability and emissions while idling and provides increased low/mid-range torque for better overall performance. A newly designed, patented CVT cover not only reduces weight, but improves drive belt cooling and provides less heat and sound transfer for a more comfortable rider experience.

To get the engine’s power to the ground more efficiently, the Alterra 700 vehicle lineup has a new direct-driven clutch with improved clutch calibration for faster back shifting on acceleration. With no wet clutch friction materials to contaminate engine oil, the new driveline not only offers better performance, but more durability.

Further rounding out Textron Off Road’s ATV line in the 700 class is the reimagined Alterra TRV 700. Designed and tested for tandem riding, the new, two-person Alterra TRV 700 has an extended frame, longer wheel base and heavy-duty sway bar, so it can comfortably accommodate two people. Hand holds in four unique locations ensure passenger stability and confidence in different riding situations. For added versatility, the vehicle features a quickly removable seat and optional dump box. Whether carrying a passenger or hauling extra cargo, the Alterra TRV 700’s standard EPS ensures easy maneuverability. The Alterra TRV 700 is available in Fire Red with aluminum wheels.

08 TEXTRON’S FIRST BIG BITD WIN Textron Off Road Factory Race Team’s Ray Bulloch and his co-pilot Kaleb Myers slayed Best in the Desert’s Vegas to Reno race this past weekend taking the Pro UTV NA class win by almost 18 minutes!

Bulloch piloted the nearly-stock, naturally aspirated No. 1835 Wildcat XX to the win – beating out custom-built and turbocharged vehicles – and only stopping for a belt and tire change. The win was a true testament to the durability of the Wildcat XX and its racers, who “ironmanned” the 531-mile long race in 11 hours 26 minutes and 30 seconds.

scene it THE 12 HOURS OF PDV with ATV WORLD MAGAZINE he ATV World Mag crew just got back from an epic trip to PONT DE VAUX France. ATV Racing is apparently still alive and doing very well in Europe as the stoic event has grown to be one of the largest ATV races in the World, with 89 pro teams competing for the annual Title and cup. This awesome, family friendly event now spans four full days with all different levels of racing on ATV’s, Bikes, and UTV’s as well as Freestyle contests and a backflipping CF MOTO UTV. Besides the PRO’s there were more than a hundred amatuer teams, and 39 Youth racers!

Doug Henline and his 4Liberty team were looking excited and ready during Thursday nights interviews.

One of the best parts of covering an epic race in France was the impromptu 3 am Bicycle tour around Paris for those must have photos, even if the lights were already turned off.

Right after Thursday’s qualifying finishes up, the race teams take to the streets of PDV for a parade and display in this beautiful downtown area.

Two hundred quads leaving the downtown display at one time created a pretty cool ATV traffic jam.

Although they were still kind of the sideshow to the quad race, their were 22 UTV teams on hand to race PDV as well.

The ATV’s get staged for the start each heat, in accordance to Thursdays qualifying times.

Eighty nine Pro Teams awaiting the flag drop for PDV’s exciting Le Mans style start.

Last years winning team qualified for a top five start, and would be serious threat for 2018.

PURE SPORT 450’S

KTM 450SX

One machine that was rare to see around your local trails or race track was KTM’s 450 SX because of its price tag, but man, weren’t you jealous when you saw one! I think most kids checked Kijiji or AutoTrader for one these bad boys back in the day. The KTM 450SX was one machine that from production needed zero modifications, having a race inspired suspension, single cylinder 4-stroke engine, manual 5 speed, hydraulic front and rear brakes, and 50.4 inch wheel base made this quad one bad a** machine. The Australian manufacturers CDI ignition system featured two types of mapping power curves; with just simply unplugging a connection on the CDI electrical box you could scare yourself coming out of the twisties. Production of the KTM 450 SX was limited to only a few years, making this machine surely one of a kind.

SUZUKI LT-R450

Well known for its race scene and championship-winning tears, the Suzuki LT-R450 was one machine that the public dreamed of getting their hands on. When Suzuki introduced their race engine to the public back in 2006, people where able to leave the dealership show room floor and head straight to the racetrack staring line for a tag of around $8,000. With Suzuki’s fuel injected, DOHC 450cc engine and its stock, race-ready wide stance, gave sport riders the race look and feel from a “stock” machine. Unfortunately the Suzuki LT-R450 was short lived with its last year of production being 2009. The LTR will always hold a special spot in the hearts of most ATV Sport quad lovers.

YAMAHA YFZ 450R

The Yamaha YFZ450 was introduced to us back in 2003 and helped change the Sport of ATV riding into what it is today. The 2008/2009 YFZ450R took it to another level by revamping the older YFZ chassis, building a whole new machine around it with a lighter aluminium frame, race ready suspension, and a new fuel injected engine. In 2009 the Yamaha YFZ450R engine consisted of a five-valve, dual overhead cam with a compact wet sump oiling system, saving weight compared to a dry sump, and with the addition of Yamaha’s EFI system you had a noticeable lightweight thumb throttle. Skip forwarded to today and Yamaha still has the YFZ450R available with even better power, suspension, and overall design for the sport ATV enthusiast.

KAWASAKI KFX 450R

HONDA TRX 450R

The green monster of the sport quad world. Kawasaki KFX 450R was built to handle tough race conditions, offering full benefits of an all aluminium frame, providing exceptional lightweight while also providing extreme stiffness to handle the toughest terrain. In 2008 the Kawasaki KFX 450R was the only competition ATV that included a lightweight reverse system, unheard of in sport quad racing. With this addition there was no longer a result of an early retirement from the race. The KFX 450R powerplant was based of off Kawasaki’s highly acclaimed KX40F motocross engine, producing more torque in low and medium rpm ranges.

2 hinge pivots for added stability

3 mounting options for the EZ lift gas shocks and latch strikers for maximum adjustability

When the Honda TRX450R was introduced in 2004, Honda set the standard for a purpose built 450cc liquid cooled 4-valve, 4-stroke engine based on the CRF450R Motocross bike. The Honda TRX450R was available in two versions of their 450, kick-start, and electric start, giving riders an option is saving some weight. Still in 2015 Honda was using a carburetor and a steel frame, compared to there competitors using aluminium and fuel injection, both having their advantages and disadvantages when it came to racing.

INSTALLING THE CARDO PACKTALK BOLD

H

elmet mounted Bluetooth communication devices have been popular with the street riding crowd for over a decade. The technology has come a long way in this same time, and they are now proving tremendously useful in offered situations as well. These new, relatively inexpensive devices from CARDO feature incredible range, connecting up to 15 riders at a time over a 1-1.6 km range. The Backtalk Bold offers seamless communication as well as features like Phone, GPS, and hi-def music. The CARDO units provide an incredible 13 hours of battery life and universal connectivity to connect with any other brand Bluetooth devices.

Opening the kit, you’ll want to lay out all the pieces and decide which style microphone and earbuds you will want to use. A flexible boom mic is supplied for open face or even roomier, closed face type helmets. We opted for the stick slimmer, stick-on type microphone for our MX Helmet application.

In simple terms, for a few hundred bucks you can have inhelmet music, seamless communication with your riding buddies, whether in a UTV with you, or on another ATV up to a mile away.

They also factor in a “SIRI” like natural voice operation with “Hey CARDO” allowing you to simply and accurately make commands for phone calls, music choices, or even driving directions. Install is literally a snap with supplied speaker and microphone options to fit any style helmet you prefer. We couldn’t wait to get ours installed, and want to showcase how simple and quickly you can be experiencing quality communication versus yelling at your corider over a roaring exhaust.

You will want to remove your ear/cheek pads from both sides. If you have a completely removable liner, you might also want to unsnap it to make running and securing the wires easier.

With the cheek pads out and the liner unsnapped, install the earbuds in both sides with the supplied double sided tape, or the Velcro sticky pad option. Run the connecting R to L wire up through the headliner against the styrofoam EPS liner. Reinstall the cheek pads with the earbuds properly in place.

Connect the earbud wires to the matching wires on the receiver and install the microphone. On our MX helmet, we opted for the less obtrusive, and smaller stick down mic. If you have the room with a larger or open face helmet, the flexible boom mic will give you even better performance. Tuck the wires securely up under the cheek pads.

Turn on the units and connect the DMC Group with the green flash signaling that you’re in DMC mode, and then when connected properly, you will get a purple flash. You can cancel your current group by holding the button five seconds, and then you will get a rapid green flash.

8

Clip the Packtalk unit into its receiver with a firm clip. You can now pair it with your phone, a 2nd phone, GPS, etc. via Bluetooth. FM Radio is already included and ready for listening as well.

52

Install the receiver onto the helmet chin bar with the clip in between the fiberglass shell and the EPS liner part of the chinbar. This will take a bit of force, depending on the shape of your helmet. If you are mounting it permanently, there is a stick down 3M mount provided, instead of using this clip.

With the installation complete, you are now ready for wireless and seamless communication on your ATV, UTV, motorcycle, or anywhere else you want to wear a helmet.

ALL TRAILS ARE NOT CREATED EQUAL

W

ith a municipal elec on in the near future and a er some serious contempla ng, I decided to throw my preverbal hat into the ring. Being that this is the first me I have undertook such a venture, I find myself in a steep learning curve. There is a great deal of work involved before Elec on Day, even in a campaign for a municipality of under 5000 people.

One of the first things that was asked of me was what was on my campaign pla orm? There are a few important issues that my fellow candidates and I agree on, that need to be followed through on and completed, but I think we all have individual things that we all think would help the community.

One of my interests is in the development of a mul -use trail system. I believe the revenue from the related tourism would definitely be worth the investment. Currently my municipality does not have a snowmobile or ATV trail coming into the community. We can only use main roadways.

This is due to the fact that a couple of years ago, the private landowners became uneasy about allowing use of their land. Although I was disappointed and frustrated when they closed their access, I respect their decision and I am apprecia ve of the privilege of using it for so many years.

For the record, the local snowmobile club is working very hard so that the trail is open for the 2018/2019 snowmobile season.

Although I am looking forward to having a snowmobile trail back in town, it really doesn’t address the other possible trail system uses that are needed, including ATV riding.

54

ATV WORLD MAGAZINE • VOL 15 • ISSUE 4

Now anyone that has volunteered for an ATV or snowmobile club knows the amount of work required in developing a trail system. A trail that does not make use of snow and freezing is very labour, material and cost intensive. Therefore, when a trail system is shutdown, it is a huge loss. The only way to eliminate a possibility of a trail being shutdown is by developing a trail system on public or crown land.

Therefore, if I get the opportunity, here is my plan to build a mul -use trail system on crown land that would include ATV, SXS, Dirt Bikes, Horseback, Mountain Bikes, Snowmobiles and 4X4’s.

1. Ease of Maintenance Through the following process of planning and development, keep in mind that once the trail has been built, you do not want to be doing a lot of upkeep. As the trail development progresses, try to visualize problems that could arise. A trail with a low difficulty ra ng is usually easier to maintain. Higher skilled sec ons can be incorporated later.

Remember, trail volunteers like to ride too.

2. Planning Before any cu ng begins, using topographical maps to begin plo ng the trail, trails or where future trails could go. Will the trail be close to private land, and would that cause any concerns? This will help you determine where the trail will begin and where you would like it to end.

Are you trying to get to a des na on or navigate through obstacles while remembering the mul -use theme? Where bridges would be required can easily be iden fied. Then walk the landscape to see what the map does not show

Why do people need to be told this? This is one of the biggest frustrations of landowners and why they close access to trails.

TORONTO SNOWMOBILE, ATV & POWERSPORTS SHOW • OCT 19-21, 2018 • TORONTO INTERNATIONAL CENTRE • www.torontosnowmobileatvshow.com

you. Take reflec ve tape with you so you will easily be able to find the final layout.

3. Managing Terrain Establishing a successful ATV trail is achieved by having a thorough understanding of the terrain you will be crossing, and by u lizing that terrain the best way possible. Hilly areas provide a lot of up and downhill travel, but steep areas require diversion ditches, and may be prone to severe erosion that will require immediate a en on. Flat ground will provide easy travel, but if rainwater accumulates, it will not be long before a mud hole develops which will con nue to grow with each passing vehicle. Fun for some trail users, but a pain for others. Remember, even though it is public land; try to disrupt it as li le as possible.

4. Accessibility Where will your trailhead be located? Most trail systems will provide easy access to riders, while supplying sufficient space for parking, loading and unloading. This is especially important for those from out of town or not close to the trail system. The trails need to be clearly marked.

5. Intended Speed For the most part, the higher percentage of riders want to go fast. Not only does this reduce your ride me, it can

Notice the amount of work required in this short section of trail. Cutting the trail, bridge work, fencing, ditching and protecting the stream from soil washing in. A lot more than required for a snowmobile trail.

prove to be dangerous to other trail users. Straight, wide and smooth stretches should be kept to a minimum. Sparingly use heavy equipment such as bulldozers, which easily make wide, smooth sec ons. By making trails wind through terrain with rocks, trees and fallen logs, the trail can become more scenic, while preven ng excessive speeds which can not only cause injury, but also increase wear on the trails. Finally, but just as important, the line of sight on mul -use trails is crucial, especially on corners.

6. Level of Difficulty - The Most Important Considera on With a mul -use trail system, you have to think about all the intended users. For this reason, the primary trail should be of a lower level of difficulty. As men oned previously, branch or secondary trails can be added as an alternave, to increase the level of skill required to navigate that specific trail sec on. These trails need to be clearly labeled accordingly at the entry and exit points, to warn the trail user about the difficulty level. Depending on how someone is using the trail, tough obstacles could quickly overwhelm the rider in ques on.

During the development process, public input is crucial, even from those not intending to use the trail system.

Finally, a high quality, detailed map is required, to know where you are when you get there.

This sign is showing up more often, indicating a permanently closed trail.

A lot of time and energy gone. Closing a small section of trail can cause the closure of a much larger trail.

Just

what is the 60” sport class anyways? It’s definitely a li le loose by defini on, but the 60” machine is the crossover or middleman between the big boy 64” desert machines of the West Coast and the more East Coast trail friendly 50” type machines.

While the 50” machines are necessary in some areas for the 50” max trails, they aren’t really that stable at higher speeds.

This is the machine meant for all around sport riding on wooded trails, as well as fire roads, all around adventuring, or the go anywhere, do anything, all around sport machine.

It excels in the forest, can get through the ghter trails, and is s ll a blast in the desert or even the dunes. This is the ‘one size fits all’ UTV class that even fits in the back of the truck.

Its direct compe tor would probably be Polaris’s 1000S, the Textron Havoc, or even the General, but it doesn’t have an actual working dump bed like the General or Havoc.

WHAT IS THE MAVERICK SPORT The brand new Maverick Sport is based on the Maverick Trail chassis with a larger stance and a wider cockpit.

The Maverick Sport is available with the 75HP 1000 power plant, or as the 1000R model with a class leading 100HP and 71 .-lbs. of torque. You can even get the lower price point, 75 HP 1000 with or without DPS to suit your budget. BRP has designed the Maverick Sport to be “Daring, Precise, and Confident”, to fit a wide variety of customer needs. This machine is aimed at being the ul mate, “do it all”, mul -purpose Sport UTV.

TORONTO SNOWMOBILE, ATV & POWERSPORTS SHOW • OCT 19-21, 2018 • TORONTO INTERNATIONAL CENTRE • www.torontosnowmobileatvshow.com

atvworld DARING To BRP, Daring relates to their sturdy engine and transmission, enhanced comfort and meaningful func onali es, while s cking to the typical Can-Am design and DNA. The proven Rotax V-Twin engine has been op mized for performance riding with high torque output, low vibra on, and a quiet and cool cockpit. They do this with both the entry level 75HP/60 -lb version and the 100HP/71 -lb 1000R version that claims to be 15% faster than its nearest compe tor in a 0-60mph drag race. What’s even more impressive is its ultra-lax maintenance schedule that is said to have you out riding for a year before even needing its first scheduled maintenance.

The Maverick Sport’s impressive reliability claims and stretched out maintenance intervals are achieved by things like an oversized radiator for maximum cooling, and the same high quality Donaldson airbox that you find on the X3. The Maverick Sports CVT w/Quick Response System (QRS) will not only provide the seat of the pants performance you’re looking for, but is also built to last, including drive belts. This clutching reliability is made possible with increased cooling through strategically posi oned and oversized air intakes. The Rotax 1000 gets one intake and one exhaust, while the 1000R gets dual CVT air intakes, one exhaust and the same driver pulley as the Maverick X3. Electronic belt protec on sensors keep slippage and heat to a minimum, while the gear on gear rear diff and helical gear transmission should prove equally as reliable.

Enhanced comfort and meaningful func onali es was another of BRP’s major goals with the Maverick Sport. The Ergo-Lok cockpit is designed with the customer in mind, and to have everything in the right place.

This starts with highly adjustable driver seat and steering wheel, and is complemented by nice es like angled footrests, ergonomically correct seats and posi oned grab bars. The cabin is finished off with premium half doors that offer 2.5 inches of addi onal elbow room per side than the previous Maverick Trail edi on. The func onali es include things like over 20 liters of storage capacity, 680 KG of towing capacity, and a 136 kg mul func on cargo box, with 8 LinQ quick-a ach points and 4 anchor hooks and drain holes.

Can-Am DNA with proven superior fit & finish is at the forefront of the Maverick Sport design.

X3 Heritage literally shines through with the unique Can-Am signature LED head and tail lights. Can-Am design also allows for easy integra on with its pre-wired profile and a 650 wa magneto that’s ready to power anything you might want. The profiled cage comes with 4-point harness brackets already installed, with no need to weld, re-paint, etc.

PRECISE

60

Precise refers to the precision handling characteris cs, with a suspension designed for performance, and a chassis setup that is both capable and provides easy handling. The DPS models are also equipped with Intelligent Thro le Control with Sport / ECO modes, allowing you to toggle between a smooth, mellow opera on, and a more aggressive wide open power curve. They both also get the QE Visco Lok for instant front differen al engagement when it ma ers most. They all get dual piston caliper, 220mm disc brakes, and 27 inch Maxxis Bighorn 2.0 res can be found on all four corners. .

The Maverick Sport gets a new, longer wheelbase for superior comfort and

be er control in rough terrain. Op mal 42%/58% weight distribu on is said to also help with predictable cornering and less front and rear pitch.

The suspension design uses op mized weight transfer, wheel movement, and contact patch for maximum control, predictability, and stability. The double A arm front suspension offers 11.5”s of suspension travel, and the TTA rear pulls 12 inches, while both front and rear u lize sway-bars to minimize body roll, and premium FOX 2.0 Podium shocks with preload adjustment. The ultra-resistant chassis is made of DP980 and HSLA for limited flex and op mal calibra on.

ITS PREMIUM CHASSIS, HALF DOORS, STEEL BUMPER AND INJECTED, FULL SKID PLATES PROVIDE ENHANCED PROTECTION FOR BOTH THE MACHINE AND ITS OCCUPANTS.

The LED accent lights on the Maverick Sport just scream that X3 DNA

The sport exhaust builds a heathy yet stealthy growl.

The front bumpers Bash plate was solid enough to take a serious hit with on the trail, with no visible damage.

atvworld CONFIDENT The Maverick Sport provides confidence by being perfectly tuned to truly make a be er driver out of you. Its premium chassis, half doors, steel bumper and injected, full skid plates provide enhanced protec on for both the machine and its occupants. A maintenance free 1st year and no break-in period gets you in the driver seat quicker, and prolongs that first maintenance. The Maverick Sport is also DIY friendly with easy access to key maintenance components. A removable cargo box takes less than ten minutes to remove, and provides unbeatable access to the engine area.

DRIVE TIME

WAS REALLY GOOD FOR THE TRAILS

Over the course of two days, we got a substan al amount of drive me in both the 1000R and the DPS 1000. I only spent a li le me with the non-DPS equipped machine, but would highly recommend springing for the power steering model if you can afford the difference. Steering is night and day be er, and it also eliminates negave feedback to the steering wheel. Si ng in the machine is extremely comfortable and you feel connected to the machine right away. In the cab you really appreciate the addi onal elbow room of the new doors in comparison to the slightly cramped Trail version. Our version was equipped with an accessory Bluetooth radio that looked factory and sounded great at lower speeds, but wasn’t quite loud enough at WFO. We took a group ride from the lodge to the top of the mountain, and you definitely no ce the difference in power between the 75HP unit and the 100HP 1000R on an uphill climb, especially as you get up into higher eleva on. This is not to say that the 75HP machine is slow, but the 100HP machine is definitely more exci ng as it s ll has a li le extra pop le when you want it. Using the ECO mode on the 75HP model feels sluggish, where the 100HP machine s ll feels faster on ECO than the 75HP on Sport mode. With a steady thro le on the 1000R, you can toggle to the Sport mode and feel it slightly throw you back in the seat, whereas the 75 HP one just feels restricted on ECO. Coming back down the hill, you couldn’t tell the two machines apart. They both felt very fast and handled exactly the same, with precise and stable steering.

On flat ground, the difference was less no ceable than on an incline, but s ll definitely no ceable. We switched back and forth between the 1000 and 1000R while Moto-ing on the switch back, grass track, and you could eat the guy up on the 75HP machine. In the ghter track through the trees, the two Maverick Sports seemed pre y equal as you really couldn’t use the extra horsepower, and the handling was again iden cal. There were only a few short straightaways where you were probably faster on the 1000R than the standard 1000 DPS. Suspension was really good for the trails and speeds we were driving.

At full thro le, you could find the bo om on a g-out, but you really had to hit something harder than you should be. Small braking bumps, ruts, rocks and other trail obstacles were soaked up with ease. Overall trail comfort was good, regardless of what speed you drove; it levels out the small to medium stuff with ease, and it handles high speed turns like it’s on train tracks.

atvworld THE MAVERICK SPORT IS ALSO EXCITING TO DRIVE, ESPECIALLY THE 1000R VERSION.

FINAL THOUGHTS The CAN-AM Maverick Sport is a great replacement for the original 60” Maverick, and offers a lot more comfort and be er handling than the 50” trail version, if you’re not trying to ride 50” wide trails. The 5 inch wider cab feels a lot roomier, exactly where you want it too, and the extra tall doors feel more protec ve and secure. The sea ng posi on is low for increased center of gravity, and you feel really connected to the vehicle while driving it. This will be a great all around vehicle for the consumer that rides all different types of trails. It offers plenty of storage for full days out on the trail, and the bed is set up for carrying whatever you might need for any situa on.

The Maverick Sport is also exci ng to drive, especially the 1000R version. It power slides with ease, yet is predictable and controllable at any just about speed.

As we men oned earlier, we would kick in the extra money for the DPS version, but if the extra 1900 bucks were a deal breaker, the non-DPS model s ll handled extremely well, and was s ll a ton of fun to drive. All three are great machines.

THIS IS A VERY POWERFUL MISSION STATEMENT, especially when ref-

erencing a relatively flat ATV market that hasn’t seen a whole lot of attention in the past few years. While UTV’s seem to have taken over the four wheeled side of our industry, we at ATV WORLD still have big spot in our hearts for the conventional four wheeler or ATV. With this said, we were more than excited at a chance to check out and ride the newly redesigned Outlanders and Renegades.

Almost equally exciting was getting to experience them on the beautiful mountain trails of British Columbia.

CKMP

The biggest news with the new Outlander platform is the addition of its “Industry First” front sway Bar. By design, a front sway bar adds outbound wheel pressure for increased cornering ability and overall turning stability at any speed. We’ve seen them in place on many different UTVs, but not yet on the ATV side of things. With the sheer size and brute HP of these newest ATVs, it makes perfect sense, and we’re honestly surprised that they haven’t been integrated until now. The reasonably small (13.5mm) front sway bar drastically reduces body roll and also allows BRP to implement a softer rear sway bar for increased overall comfort and smoother suspension.

The use of a smaller rear sway bar allows for more independent movement between the rear wheels for increased comfort to the rider. Traction while cornering is also improved with enhanced “tire to ground” contact.

The Outlander also gets a new “wider” 48” stance with +1” longer a-arms up front and TTI arms in the rear. This is the real

68

ATV WORLD MAGAZINE • VOL 15 • ISSUE 4

deal way to add width as you increase wheel travel, footprint and stability, without sacrificing steering ability. To save money, many manufacturers will just push out the wheel offset for additional width, resulting in a machine that pushes in the corners versus staying predictable and accurate.

The new Outlanders get an additional 1.5 cm of wheel travel in the rear and .5 cm in the front. The Outlander’s longer a-arms are also completely redesigned to incorporate an arch for substantially increased ground clearance. The 2019 model Outlanders feature an unheard of 35mm of additional ground clearance, for a total of 295mm or 11.6 inches.

Completely new suspension calibrations, shock valving and spring rates are developed to work with both the addition of the sway bar and the increased wheel travel. The softer rear sway bar and the addition of a front allows for smoother valving and a much more controllable and comfortable ride.

WE WERE COMPLETELY STOKED TO SEE CAN-AM PUTTING THEIR FOCUS, ENERGY AND MONEY INTO THE ATV MARKET WITH COMPLETELY REDESIGNED OUTLANDERS.

Their statement was “Reimagined From the Rider Down”, and they set out to achieve the best handling, stability, and comfort through a brand new suspension. They also wanted to create the

most powerful ATV ever, with a bold new appearance, and all with a value that is more accessible than ever before. Just as they set out to do, the 1000R, 850, and 650 Outlanders all got the same completely new front and rear suspension.

CREATING THE MOST

POWERFUL ATV EVER BRP has increased the already extremely powerful 1000R engine to a class leading 91HP. 91HP not only makes the 1000R the most powerful in class, but also the most powerful stock ATV ever made. While many riders might never really need a 91HP ATV, most of us will want one! While 91HP might seem a bit excessive for an ATV, it helps create quite a workhorse, allowing for a class leading 750 kg towing capacity. The 1000R’s drive by wire throttle with Intelligent Throttle Control, (iTC) keeps the machine rideable and controllable when needed for work, and allows for full on thrills when looking for such.

Between the three riding modes, (Standard, Sport, & Work) there is a power curve for everyone, and every occasion. Engine torque is managed with

ATV WORLD MAGAZINE • VOL 15 • ISSUE 4

a drivability filter, and control in technical conditions is improved by being able to switch modes on the fly.

The newest 1000R creates its class leading 91HP on premium 91 octane fuel, but utilizes a knock sensor to allow the safe use of lesser fuel, with slightly reduced performance. This improved 1000cc class machine also gives CanAm the power leadership in all classes of available utility machines. Why this is important is because we all know that more power typically equals bigger smiles and more fun!

This additional HP gets to the ground through a 155mm final drive unit that is said to be 50% stronger than previous models and 25% stronger than the previous Xmr.

The bumper corners have been reshaped, and are now made with HSA steel instead of plastic. The 19 Outlander also gets a new cast-aluminum wheel design, mudguards and a 4.5” digital display. As for new color ways, the new Black & Can-Am Red is pretty dang sharp and will surely be a top seller.

RIDE

TIME The moment we’ve all been waiting for - getting out and riding these new ATVs with real deal improvements, and not just the typical BNG (Bold New Graphics) we’ve been seeing over the past few years.

As a forewarning for comparison purposes, I had not spent a lot of time recently on the previous Outlander models. They did however, have a stock 2018 Outlander 1000R for a back to back experience. The first loop was pretty tight wooded trails, and the 1000R felt really good for a big, massive machine. It’s extremely fast, maybe just short of dangerous in the tight woods in sport mode. Turn the thumb switch to std. and you’re riding a machine with completely different mannerisms. It’s still every bit a 1000cc four wheeler, but it exhibits less wheel spin and is all around more controllable in the tighter conditions, especially when wet and slippery.

Switching back and forth, I want to say that I was faster and liked the Sport mode better, but in reality it was overkill until you got out of the woods and into the more open dirt roads, hill climbs, or grassy fields. This is where the sport mode shines. Extremely rocky, more technical hill climbs are the exception to this, and we felt it more manageable and still plenty powerful when riding in standard, as compared to the less manageable Sport mode.

The Outlander handled the tight woods loop very well for a big, powerful machine, and was even more impressive when we got out into the more open “grass track”. The CKMP guys had mowed a 3 meter wide “S” type track through the shoulder tall grass. The course was about a mile long, completely flat with high speed switch backs, and even a few tighter turns. Knowing how and why a sway-bar works, this was exactly the type of trail where a sway-bar would prove itself over a machine without it. It was also a complete blast to ride at speed on both the ATVs and the UTVs later

THE RENEGADE LOOKS TO BE JUST A SLIGHTLY LIGHTER OUTLANDER WITHOUT THE UTILITY RACKS

THESE ARE BY FAR THE BEST HANDLING CAN-AM ATVS TO DATE, AND THEY ARE SELLING FOR LESS THAN THE PREVIOUS GENERATION.

that day. We tested the non-sway-bar equipped machine, back to back against the 2019 model, and it wasn’t even a fair fight on the grass track. The at-speed turning ability was incredibly better, and the overall suspension even felt smoother as well.

We pretty much knew that the swaybar equipped machine was going to have that result on that type track, and I’m sure that’s why BRP built the track as well. So after we were done blasting laps around the grass course, we opted to run them back to back through the woods loop a couple times as well. In BRP’s defense, it didn’t take multiple laps to see the improvement in the woods either. The improvement is immediately evident in the first hard turn you come into at any speed. We were also more than a little curious to see how it performed back to back in the rough. I can honestly tell you that the new machine with different valv-

ing and a slightly freer rear end handles better in the chop, and breaking bumps as well.

On paper, the Renegade looks to be just a slightly lighter Outlander without the utility racks. Well it kind of is, but it isn’t! The inch smaller tires, sportier plastic, and more aggressive handlebars really make it feel more like a true sport quad. Confidence is improved and you find yourself doing things you might not really do on a utility quad, as you wouldn’t want the racks to chase you down when things go wrong. That said, things didn’t go wrong, and I had a complete blast jumping the machine of logs, over dams, and through the river. We also found a straight vertical ledge climb up into some single motorcycle track, a handful of other editors were questioning it, and the point and shoot method proved it had zero problems climbing vertical terrain.

FINAL

THOUGHTS These are by far the best handling CAN-AM ATVs to date, and they are selling for less than the previous generation.

If you’re looking for a new sport utility machine for a mix of work and play, these new machines will be hard to beat. The iTC does an incredible job at making an already versatile platform even more versatile, and they are downright powerful in every category.

THE EASTERN ONTARIO TRAILS ALLIANCE IS MORE THAN A TRAIL SYSTEM. IT’S A GLIMPSE INTO THE FUTURE.

THE

The rock-strewn hill looks like the side of a mountain. It appears insurmountable, like a pile of unlabeled receipts come tax time. And the trail to the top veers ominously between a near vertical incline, and a chain link fence. Will the Yamaha Wolverine fit through the gap? And if it doesn’t fit, will it be able to back down the hill? Enough procrastinating. Timidity is the friend of no man. With the Wolverine’s 4WD engaged and a yelled war whoop for good luck, the throttle is mashed to the floor to build momentum for the climb attempt. Here’s hoping for the best.

The morning fog was a welcome respite

Main trails are predominantly rail-bed-based. But opportunity abounds to explore tighter, gnarlier trails.

Two

days before, on an unseasonably warm late summer Friday, the ATV World crew pulls into a trailhead parking lot in Glen Tay, an hour west of Ottawa, and just outside Perth, Ontario.

We have come for a weekend of riding on the Eastern Ontario Trails Alliance (EOTA) system, of which Glen Tay is its eastern terminus. Suiting up and cinching down helmets, the five of us jump onto a pair of ATVs and a pair of side-by-sides, and throttle westward toward the town of Sharbot Lake, our destination for the

evening. Steep rock cuts dramatically line the decommissioned railbed, and arching trees create a canopy of shade most welcome on this near 40-degree day—but still we’re tempted by the pristine lakes we pass—how cool would it be to plunge into the lakes’ chilly depths?

Few pursuits make a beer taste better than a day’s ATV ride, and dinner is washed down with good cheer and a spirited bull session on the deck of the Sharbot Lake Country Inn. But morning comes quickly, and we’re up and off, and down to the village park for the 2nd annual Central Frontenac Trail Day.

FEW PURSUITS MAKE A BEER TASTE BETTER THAN A DAY’S ATV RIDE

, There really is a lake in Sharbot Lake. And it s beautuful.

The EOTA was founded in 1997, with the goal of coalescing support from various stakeholders to create a trail system that covers a broad geographic region. It’s no secret that ATV enthusiasts envy the organizational might and the linked trail systems of snowmobile clubs, and the EOTA could be considered a model of an ATV trail system for the future. But there’s more to the EOTA than just ATVs. Perhaps the key to the EOTA’s success (700 kilometers of marked trails) is its broad “shared use” mandate, to encourage everyone to get into the great outdoors. The system requires a pass, which varies in annual cost from $35 for cross-country skiers to $75 for dog sled teams, (seriously) to $150 for ATV and motorcycle users. That diversity is represented in the village, as we see mountain bikers and dirt bikers and hikers, all ready for a day on the trail.

We register for the self-guided ATV ride and head north of Highway 7 with a map to guide us, and ride through the evocatively named Snow Road Station and Mississippi Station before hunger sets in, and we return to Sharbot Lake—to be welcomed back to the town’s park by a brass band playing on a stage, next to a vintage train caboose. While we wolf down pulled pork on a bun, graciously prepared by the Sharbot Lake Masons, speakers brave the PA system’s feedback and thank everyone for coming out, while

stressing the community-building benefits of the cash infusion that EOTA trail users bring to the region. As the band retakes the stage, we take our queue and depart for the town of Renfrew.

While travelling unfamiliar off-road trails, it can be difficult to get a sense of how long it will take to get to your destination. One older man tells us it will take seven hours to go from Sharbot Lake to Renfrew, (he’d be right—if you did the journey entirely in reverse) but most opinions we solicit suggest about three hours.

The advantage of a railbed-based trail system is the rapidity with which you can make it from one region to the next, which means less trailering to see more territory.

That’s a win-win, but man cannot live by railbeds alone.

WHILE TRAVELLING UNFAMILIAR OFF-ROAD TRAILS, IT CAN BE DIFFICULT TO GET A SENSE OF HOW LONG IT WILL TAKE TO GET TO YOUR DESTINATION

Start them young we always say!

atvworld After the smooth running on the trail north from Sharbot Lake, we divert onto the Barry Lake Trail, just south of the town of Calabogie, which brings us back to the rock-strewn hill that looks like the side of a mountain. Yamaha’s Wolverine hops and jumps and skitters from rock to rock, and just grazes the chain link fence on its way up the hill, but it makes it. Easily. And the trail just gets better. Steep rises are followed by sharp descents and—even though we’ve had an unusually dry summer—plenty of mud. And that’s where we stay, and play, for half a day. By the time we latch onto the trail from Calabogie to Renfrew, we look like we’ve been dredged from the bottom of a lake.

Reservations have been made at Rocky Mountain House, a curiouslynamed but charming inn and restaurant (schnitzels and steaks the specialties) in the heart of Renfrew. As our quartet pulls into the parking lot, a dozen or more cruiser riders give us a sideways glance, and fuss over immaculately clean Harleys.

While they’re cleaner, we suspect we’ve had more fun.

The balmy early September temperatures make us reluctant to go inside for dinner, so we hit the patio, only to be pelted by falling acorns from a mighty oak overhead—yet another sign of fall’s approach. A reshuffling of patio umbrellas solves the problem, but we’d by lying if we said we didn’t chuckle at the diners the next table over, who were fishing acorns out of their beer.

We don't ride six inches apart. Most of the time...

Sunday dawns with thick fog, and after breakfast we pull out of the hotel’s parking g lot and begin our way southward back to Glen Tay and our trucks and trailers. By the time we reach Calabogie, skies clear to a brilliant blue, and we circumnavigate lakes and cross briskly flowing rivers that cut through dark and dense forests. We’re all reluctant for the ride to be over, but tomorrow is a work day, and besides, today won’t end until we’ve had an evening date with the power washer.

The Eastern Ontario Trails Alliance is a template for a model of what modern ATVing could become if stakeholders in other jurisdictions set aside petty squabbling for the good of the sport. But until that day comes—and mark our words, it will—we’d suggest loading up and heading east.

The

founda on to this build was the 2017 Polaris General 1000. If you are not up to speed on the General 1000, it is a u lity unit derived from its cousin the RZR 1000, sharing some of its sporty feel and look with a very comparable 100HP 999cc engine.

The sporty side of the General comes from the Fox Podium Q3 suspension, with over 12” of travel and ground clearance, along with the fit and finish you would typically see in a sport unit, like the seats, steering wheel and gauge cluster.
