Style: Trail Bike / Enduro
The TnT (Track ‘n Trail) was the trail bike model of the MX, sharing the same chassis and engine. There were slight differences in porting with a slightly lower compression ratios, but essentially it was the same motor as the MX models. Although in later models the rotary valve was changed to provide a better power (more torgue) range. The only other differences are the inclusion of lighting ( via a 4 or 6 pole stator) and a speedometer.
The TnT only lasted for the early years, quickly replaced with the Qualifier model in late 1976.

Worlds most northern Can-Am?
How far north have you ever seen a Can-Am? Lying 2 degrees north of the Arctic circle, Inuvik is about as far north as you can go in Canada. This photo from 1977 shows that even Can-Am made this far! Way back in ’77 Andre Ravary was stationed there is his role with the Canadian Armed Forces. Along with two other friends, they all bought Can-Ams to ride the local roads and tundra. Sadly 3 years later girlfriends got in the way and the bike was traded for a 500 Yamaha.
