Bombardier made the Trail Buck for John Deere.  Same as the Traxter 650.  Now it'll be listed as a CanAm Traxter 650.

I recall the 650 being a different model than the Traxter built by BRP. It had a CVT (belt drive) which is what the Quest 650 had. The Traxter was a 500 with a multi-speed gear transmission. Hope this helps.

CanAm lists a Traxter CVT 650 for 2005.  The clutches are identical to the Trail Buck.

I didn't see a Quest listed for 2005.

That's true, they called it a Quest up until 2004 then changed the name. They also had the 5 speed Traxter that year which I believe was a 500 (and also sold by JDeere as well)
