Argo, Kymco and TGB

Three makes at the bottom of the catalogue, reached by one manufacturer and not the other. None is large enough to carry a page alone; together they answer the question an owner of one arrives with, which is whether anybody publishes anything at all.

What the catalogue holds for each

These three sit at the bottom of the make table — ranks 10, 12 and 13 of 13. Between them they account for 22 application records, which resolve to 11 machine rows once the two systems publishing the same machine are merged.

Published applications for the three makes reached by one manufacturer only. Derived from the application catalogue, read 2026-09-26.

TGB422018–20197T4S, X4SIndependent rear

The model-year span is worth reading against the catalogue as a whole rather than in isolation. The newest row anywhere in it is model year 2026. All three of these makes stop short of that, by 8, 3 and 7 model years in the order of the table, and the last column carries that figure per make.

What that means is not the same for each of them. Where a make’s rows stop a long way back, an owner of a current machine of that make has no published application for it, and the rows that do exist describe machines that are now some years old. Whether the kit those rows name is still stocked is a separate question from whether the row is still published, and only the second one is answerable from a catalogue.

One manufacturer reaches them, and it is not the volume one

The Kimpex Commander publishes applications for 8 makes. The two Camso systems between them publish for 13. The difference is 5 makes that appear in the catalogue with no Commander application filed against them:

  • Argo
  • John Deere
  • Kymco
  • TGB
  • Textron

John Deere and Textron are covered separately — see the Textron badge years. The three that remain are the subject here.

Be exact about what that absence is. Nobody has published a Commander mounting kit for these machines. That is not the same as nothing being able to be made to work on one, so a shop that says it can mount a Commander to one of these is not contradicting the catalogue — it is working outside it. Ask what that does to the warranty at both ends before it goes on.

Camso publishes the fitment and does not advertise it

The reach is in the application data rather than in the marketing. Camso’s own product page for the T4S puts the coverage as a round number and nothing more specific:

“Fits on 300+ ATV models”powersports.camso.co, Camso ATV T4S product page, read 2026-09-26. The same page states a vehicle range of 300 to 1000cc. The X4S page states a comparable model count plus a side-by-side figure, and gives the same all-terrain range.

Where either page names example machines, the examples are Honda, Polaris, Can-Am and Yamaha. Neither page names any of the three makes here. So an owner of one gets no signal from the manufacturer’s own marketing that an application exists at all, and finds it only by running the machine through a fitment lookup. Which is where the next thing matters.

If a fitment search on your make comes back empty

One of the three is stored in the catalogue with a trailing space. Rendered with its delimiters so the space shows: "TGB ".

An exact-match lookup on the make name as anybody would type it returns nothing against that value, and returns it silently — no error, no warning, an empty result that looks exactly like a make nobody publishes for. So an empty result on one of these makes is not proof that nothing is published. Search by model name instead, or ask the shop to look the machine up rather than trusting the search box.

The catalogue also spells some makes more than one way, and these need mapping before a lookup matches them: "CF moto", "CanAm", "BRP". The first is a spelling divergence between the two manufacturers — see CFMOTO. The other two are the same rows filed under two corporate names, which collapse to one make. Try both spellings before concluding your machine is not in there.

Two makes, one part number

6 part numbers in the snapshot are published against applications filed under more than one make, with at least one of the makes on this page. Grouped by the makes that share them:

  • Arctic Cat + Kymco
  • Arctic Cat + Kymco + Textron
  • Argo + TGB

Camso does not publish why, and neither does either vehicle manufacturer. Trade coverage reports that the Argo Xplorer quads are designed and specified by Argo and mass-produced by TGB in Taiwan — ATVConnection.com, “Ask The Editors: Who Makes ARGO’s ATVs?”, published 2021-06-20, read 2026-09-26. That is trade press rather than a manufacturer statement, it does not come from Camso, and it is not what the shared part number proves. What the shared part number establishes is narrower and more useful: the mount hardware the catalogue publishes for one of them is the hardware it publishes for the other.

The practical use of that is at the parts counter: if a kit is quoted against one of the paired makes, the reference is worth checking against the other, because the catalogue treats the hardware as the same. The same pattern runs across three make names at the other end of the catalogue — see the Textron badge years.

Rows that overlap, and what separates them

Kymco. 3 separate rows carry the designation 500 MXU, with model-year spans that overlap: 500 MXU (2007-2011) — 2007–2011; 500 MXU (2015) — 2015; 500 MXU i IRS / LE / EPS (2009-2018) — 2009–2018. The published rear-suspension values across those rows are Rigid rear axle, Independent rear. So two machines of the same displacement in the same model year take different rows, and the trim suffix plus the rear suspension are what tell them apart. Displacement alone does not.

This is why a fitment desk asks what the rear end looks like before confirming a kit. Have the answer ready: displacement and model year alone will not get you to one row.

Published applications

One table per make, from the catalogue snapshot read 2026-09-26. Rows come and go as the catalogue changes, so treat a row here as a reason to ask rather than as a confirmation.

Kymco

6 published Kymco applications. None carries a published manufacturer condition. Counted from the published applications, read 2026-09-26. Both manufacturers revise their lists, so re-check a figure before you order against it.

What the empty condition column means here

Every row above reports no published condition. That reads as reassurance and it is not one. There are two different silences behind it.

Kimpex publishes no per-application condition data at all: every Commander WS4 record in this catalogue has an empty remarks field. The absence of a WS4 entry below means nobody has published a condition for it — not that none exists. Camso is the only manufacturer here that publishes these flags, so this page is necessarily a Camso view of the catalogue.

The first silence is the one above: it does not apply to these three makes at all, because there is no Commander row here to be silent. The second is Camso’s, and it is a different kind of statement. Camso does publish these flags — 6 distinct conditions across 117 records in this catalogue — and it publishes 0 of them against these makes. A manufacturer that uses a flag elsewhere and does not use it here has said more than a manufacturer that never uses flags at all.

It has still not said that nothing comes off. Camso publishes the flag; it does not publish the absence of one as an assurance. So read the column as what it is — no condition published against these rows — and get the answer for your own machine from the shop that would fit it: what comes off, whether it goes back on, and whether that is in the install quote. Where a flagged machine has been on a lift here, what the flag meant in parts and labour is in Field Notes, one flag at a time.

Also Camso-only, and filed separately

John Deere. Eight published applications, all confined to model years 2005 and 2006. Every machine is around twenty years old, and a twenty-year-old published application is not the same as a kit you can order today — check that the part numbers on those rows are still available before counting on one.

On the arithmetic it belongs in the same set — it appears in the Camso-only list above for exactly the reason the other three do. It is filed separately because its published rows stop two decades back, and an application that old answers a different question from one filed against a machine you can still buy.

If you own one of these

Four things shorten the conversation, and all four are on the machine or in the table above: the make as the catalogue spells it, the model year, the rear-suspension type — the field the catalogue splits rows on, and the one you can check in a minute with the machine in front of you — and the part number from your row, if your machine sits on one.

Ask by model name rather than by make. The make string is where these three go missing, and a counter looking the machine up by name will find rows a make dropdown returns nothing for.

One more thing is worth having, and it is the only one on this page you can produce yourself rather than read off a table: the wheel bolt pattern. Measuring your own bolt pattern takes a tape measure and two diagonals, and on a make the search box loses it is the figure that narrows a hardware question when the name does not.

Published applications, read 2026-09-26. These are the three smallest makes on the list, so a single added or retired application moves the counts by a visible fraction — re-check a row before you order against it.
