Conspiracy?

They had the high bid to buy out bombers rec vehicle enterprise then the government of Quebec step in to help the the family of Armand bomer step in and take of the company. Nice to see it remain Canadian. John Deere was the next highest bid.

All of this is quite recent , thus the results from a year ago are meaningless ..
The SXS market is the bread & butter for popo , they sell more in the dune areas than all of Canada combined , so what happens in Kelowna means pretty well nothing ...
The way the rzr line up is having issues lately , adding extra warranty to the existing one is going to cost popo a bundle ....
warranty is great , but ;every time it gets used , it costs popo $$$
let alone sales ....and customers !
Time will tell... Popo pulled the same stuff in PWC market though years ago ... & where are they now ? Lol
popo almost bought out Brp so they do not do any engineering on watertoys when they left they had watercraft of the year more money in the victory bikes

your correct the razor issues came up recently and my prices certainly will not reflect the confidence level and cost to polaris recently. It did however reflect the amount of unsold sleds and lower market share of the ATV and UTV that Brp has.

Thank God that never happened.

I agree we cannot afford to lose the tradition of the orginal developer of the
Ski-Doo and even the Sea-doo. I even remember how popular the can-am bikes were when I was a teenager.
