Season 3 keeps rolling! Steve & Rob are back with another packed episode of Sled Talk, bringing snowmobilers a mix of industry news, new sleds, technology, events and some important questions heading into the riding season.

This episode covers a LOT:

NEW POLARIS MILITARY SNOWMOBILES — We take a look at Polaris' military sleds and the technology being used for specialized applications.

BRP & THE TARIFF CHALLENGE — What could tariffs mean for BRP, snowmobile manufacturers, dealers, parts, pricing and ultimately the rider? We talk about the potential ripple effects across the snowmobile industry.

NEW SNOWMOBILE SALES — With new sled prices already a major consideration for riders, could the industry be facing some challenges ahead? We discuss new snowmobile sales and some possible issues that could affect manufacturers, dealers and consumers.

TECH TIP — POLARIS FUEL-TANK RECALL — This is one snowmobile safety issue you don't want to ignore. Polaris has issued Safety Recall S-24-01 involving certain 2021–2024 MATRYX, 2015–2024 AXYS and select 2013–2014 Pro-Ride snowmobiles. Under certain conditions, electrostatic discharge inside the fuel tank can ignite vapors and create a fire hazard. Polaris says affected owners should check their VIN and follow the current fuel and recall guidance.

And of course, Steve & Rob give shout-outs to upcoming snowmobile events and talk about what's happening around the snowmobile community.

THIS EPISODE FEATURES:

• New Polaris military snowmobiles
• BRP and the impact of tariffs
• Tariffs and snowmobile pricing
• New snowmobile sales and industry challenges
• Possible issues facing the snowmobile market
• Polaris snowmobile safety recall
• Fuel tank fire and ESD concerns
• Snowmobile maintenance & safety
• Upcoming snowmobile events
• Snowmobile industry news
• Real-world snowmobile talk from Steve & Rob

⚠️ TECH TIP: If you own a Polaris snowmobile, check your VIN for outstanding recalls. Polaris provides a recall lookup and recommends having required safety repairs completed by an authorized dealer.

Don't assume your sled is unaffected—check it before you ride.
