November 2, 2017 - In conjunction with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Kidde announced a recall to replace certain Kidde fire extinguishers. The replacement program was initiated because certain fire extinguishers can become clogged or require excessive force to activate, posing a risk of failure to discharge. In addition, the nozzle can detach with enough force to pose an impact hazard. The product recall involves two styles of Kidde disposable fire extinguishers: plastic handle fire extinguishers and plastic push-button fire extinguishers.

DID YOU KNOW AIR FILTERS ARE THE MOST OVERLOOKED
MAINTENANCE ITME ON POWER SPORTS VEHICLES?

Mainly, because they are usually enclosed in a box and out of site, out of mind.  Remember
to check your air filter on you pre-ride inspections, it may save you in the long run!

Need a new filter?  Contact Justin today at (231) 220-2101 

Did you know that you will lose 2-5lbs of tire pressure during the winter storage months?

If you ride (or have a loved one that does), please remember to check your tire pressure before you hit the open road. Under-inflated tires can be dangerous for you and your passenger. We use and recommend a mini air compressor from Slime to stay as safe as possible the entire season. 

We're offering them for only $42.95 until 5/31/15.

Call Justin today to order yours!

Did you know that the #1 cause of battery failure is from prolonged storage with little, to no charge in the battery?

If you are looking to double the life of your power sports batteries, we suggest to use a battery tender for any period of prolonged storage over a 30 day period.  We recommend C-TEK MUS 4.3, a universal battery charger.

To order your C-TEK Battery Tender today:
