I would like to say Kudos to Brandon from Martin Motorsports west end, service department. I dropped my 17 skidoo off there on Monday January 7 with some big problems. The exhaust sensor came out of the pipe in the front which had the update done and melted a hole through the hood. The gauge cluster quit, which intern killed my heated grips. And the metal clip that holds the fuel line on to the main rail had worn out, this is something that may be an issue with other sleds soon. This made fuel spray under the hood all over the place, and the fuel spraying on the pipe with a hole in it caused additional damages. When I dropped it off in the morning, I told Brandon that I was quite concerned in getting my sled back for the weekend and that I was hosting Mountain Mania in Valemount and leaving on Thrusday Jan 17. He immediately took in the sled and had it looked over by a mechanic and made a list of parts and the work that was needed. Then went to BRP for warranty approvals and to see if they can get all the parts in and have this all fixed by Wednesday Jan 16. So good news came it was all under warranty, A new hood, pipe, gauge, light bezel, sensor and wiring, and even found an issue with my clutch that was also warranty. I decided to add a pull cord to the unit as it was electric start and if it ever died on the hill I would be pulling it from the clutch. And got the oil changed in the chain case and my shocks charged. On the Saturday Jan 12, all the parts arrived, Brandon let me move the wrap from my old melted hood to the new hood in there shop. Got that done temporarily, will order a new wrap in the spring. Then I got the call on Tuesday that the sled was ready for pickup. That was fast.
Picked it up, had mountain mania, my starter failed on Friday afternoon, lol, thank goodness I installed that pull start. So dropped it off on Thursday and they will be replacing the starter under warranty, another $50 deductible, wont have it back till next week but not going again till next weekend.
