Dave K Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Any recomendations where to get body repairs done on a 2010 Skidoo Grand Touring? My wife caught a tree today, and sled is in need of repairs. Fortunately, she walked away with only a few scrapes and bruises. Was in a bush, only going about 40kmh. Needs some front suspension, and plastic panel work. Im located in Perth County. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baylaker Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 $14.5k to repair??? Do you have any photos of the sled? If your not willing to share, that’s perfectly fine too. just seems extremely high. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your not willing to share, that’s perfectly fine too. just seems extremely high. From the pics. it doesnt look bad. But ended up twisting the frame, chancase rivets are popped of the frame, needs almost all new plastics on the front, and some skis. A couple of modules, muffler etc... I have collision on the sled, so Im not sure if could be fixed for less, just not to original state like insurance would want it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baylaker Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Weird, the photos aren’t displaying. Sounds like it’s a high labour job. Good she was ok! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nunz Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Glad to hear she is ok, there is some really good deals out there especially after the season we are having, should be able to replace the sled at pre covid prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. Prices have definetley softened from a year or two ago. At that time, I coulda got 50 % more for the sled than I paid for it 5 years prior with 50 % more km on it then when I bought it. Now a little more reasonable. Not gonna rush a purchase, I got all summer, or longer to make up my mind. I still got one sled to ride. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
