Sksman Posted February 29, 2024 Share Posted February 29, 2024 I was at Polaris dealer in Belleville last week. They had about 200 new and used sleds in inventory. Dealers are upside down on a lot of the early trades from last year snow check. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAMSOMAIR Posted February 29, 2024 Share Posted February 29, 2024 When we were in Saguenay 2 weeks ago a local said 1 dealer had 270 sleds and another near Montreal had 700 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MXZMike Posted February 29, 2024 Share Posted February 29, 2024 700 is a lot.. That's not going to move unless it's 3-5K off and I doubt they can do that. Add in the new sleds they have to buy for the fall and it could get interesting.. Some dealer may not have the cash on hand to be able to buy their allotment for this year. From what a few posted each dealer is expected to buy X amount of sleds. Mike 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAMSOMAIR Posted February 29, 2024 Share Posted February 29, 2024 Dealers will have to do something real soon. Sell for less or sit on inventory and interest charges all summer. These dealers are huge around Montreal and Valcourt. Many of the BRP employees from the factory deal with these guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll move them - the interest isn't cheap and with nothing coming in the door........ Free up cash - get rid of them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily, the owners of that group are Bombardier Family members so money shouldnt be a big issue. There are plenty of dealers in Ontario with 75+ units still in stock. BRP will have no choice but to extend the flooring on 24s until Dec 31. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy with the Doo 850 turbo in Guelph has had it listed since the fall. Looks like it never turned the track. But I've seen a couple dealers blowing out used. Tri-City Cycle listed a '22 Polaris 850 with 7500 kms for $9900 last week. Nice did that one have 7s display. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
signfan Posted February 29, 2024 Share Posted February 29, 2024 What fleet customer buys 400 units? That's a huge order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They buy thousands of new machines every year. Contant Group will sell over 1000 machines every year to tour companies. The dealer in St Michel has 2-3 customized 52 ft trailers to deliver units to the outfitters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve F6 Posted March 1, 2024 Share Posted March 1, 2024 Blue book value on used sleds dropped huge in last 4 months. The numbers on clean 24' trades is crazy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottyr Posted March 1, 2024 Share Posted March 1, 2024 I saw that ad last week. Great deal but if its not sold, I think that tells you that machines are just not selling regardless of price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you want newer sled to ride once a year, make more sense to keep what you have.How many km on your 900 ace . That motor will run forever 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That motor will run forever Just want a second one looking for a two stroke this time. Keeping ace too, won't sell it, it is mint. Then I have a spare sled for a buddy to use and can get back up north if I can't find anyone else to ride with. Be easier to keep up with some of more aggressive riders on here too. Almost everyone bails on me when they find out I ride a 2017 900 ace 😆. 6500 km's on it. Half of that was in northern Ontario. Did big loop once too, in 2018 😎 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
