    Who would want AC? Surely not Yamaha that ship sailed years ago. Now with electric on the horizon AC is even less attractive. Idk why Textron bought AC in the first place other than dirt products but still a bad acquisition overall. AC employees should be happy they were acquired a bankrupt...

    How Cold Was It?

    Hard to believe but some say extended warm up to Canadian border. Can be 10 degree difference between Milwaukee and WI Northwoods. Evil sun and rain does more damage than warm air. Hopefully melt will be minimal. 🤷‍♂️

    Pitch sure looked like a grade instead of a FR. The other picture could have been anywhere Northwoods.

    Electric Snowmobile

    Yep need quick charge like 10 minutes at charging stations to be competitive with gas but that’s a technology hill to climb especially in subzero temps. We better hope gasoline is readily available at reasonable prices in the Northwoods to thrive for snowmobiling for a long time. The current...

    Electric Snowmobile

    Think about it 150 miles is not much that’s 75 miles from home base 75 miles back that’s not much. What do baggers do from hotel to hotel and most don’t straight line like to take loops and see sights? Map out gas stops as needed. 300 mile range would get me back to base on most rides without...

    Electric Snowmobile

    Might be ....but so what without charging infrastructure and short range it’s useless. Snowmobiles will be gas powered in the near future maybe a limited electric offering in the future but NOT going to be a popular option with current limitations.

    snowcheck

    Ya I can’t imagine this ending well new sleds without parts and shipping to dealers to track missing parts the OEM can’t track. This doesn’t makes any sense and NOT what the consumer ordered. I think I would bail wait until supply chain settles down no warm fuzzies for me.

    Electric Snowmobile

    Brp is on it already offer electric pontoon boats released September or August of this year. I’m sure Skidoo is testing electric sleds but they know the infrastructure isn’t available. Personally I think electric is cool as heck and performance is undoubtedly excellent but battery range ain’t...

    Arctic Cat Belt

    That sounds like % increase computer pricing mistakes. I would challenge pricing like that bring to managements attention. No justification for increase like that!

    Electric Snowmobile

    If WI and MI went the way of CA for zero emissions for snowmobiles it would be the end of snowmobiling as we know it. Casual users would throw in the towel and an aging demographic may do the same just not willing to spend $15-20k per sled on all new electric technology as gas powered sleds...

    Electric Snowmobile

    I’m sure the power to the track will eventually be there but range idk? Neat idea but the Northwoods infrastructure would have to upgraded hotels,motels , resorts to accommodate charging not to mention restaurants and remote charging stations. Definitely a future for sledding but broadband still...

    late start to snow?

    Xmas week is a big deal for snomo biz in Vilas. Usually some snow on the ground to scratch out snow activities for renters. Almost always enough snow first week of January to ride north to UP. Recent years have been tough conditions for Vilas better NW than NE. This year who knows???
