Beating the competition on the race course is just one of many aspects that sets the XTX belt apart from its competition. Specially formulated high temperature Polymer along with the highest level of engineered reinforcement proves to perform better in belt operating temperature and efficiency than leading competitors. Its innovative break-through design of deeper cogs on top and rounded cogs on the bottom yield the advantages of ultimate flexibility and longer belt life while being a better alternative to the original equipment belt.

Vehicle Information
Can-Am Defender HD9 Side-by-Side (2022-2026)
The Can-Am Defender HD9, offered from 2022 to 2026, is a robust utility side-by-side known for its reliability and versatility. It features a 976cc Rotax V-twin engine, consistently delivering 65 horsepower and 59 lb-ft of torque, paired with a PRO-TORQ CVT transmission. This powertrain ensures strong performance for work and recreation, enhanced by features like an Extra-Low range and Electronic Drive Belt Protection. The HD9 engine was a significant introduction in 2022, replacing the HD8 and boosting horsepower by 30%. Its specifications remained consistent throughout the 2022-2026 period, focusing on class-leading power, low-end torque, and a comfortable ride with reduced noise and vibration. While the HD9 model itself did not undergo a generation break, the broader Defender lineup saw the introduction of the new HD11 engine in 2026, offering 95 horsepower and a redesigned platform. HD9 models continued to be available alongside the HD11, ensuring a range of options. Trims like the Base, DPS (Dynamic Power Steering), XT (winch, roof), and MAX (6-seat crew) were consistently offered, with minor package adjustments year-to-year. These trims provide diverse configurations for various needs, from basic utility to enhanced comfort and capability. Q: Is this product compatible with my Can-Am Defender HD9?
