Extreme Testing!

by Rob Zuraski, Director New Product Development

Masiguy and others have asked for a sneak peak inside our development process but as you can imagine the need for us to keep this confidential so we don’t help out the competition. However, I wanted to share some insight into the real world testing that we do on our off time from our bikes/motorcycles in the winter.

Testing our product through real world extremes helps us to get a better understanding of “test lab” data and develop better products.

The Perfect Storm

by Rob Zuraski, Director New Product Development

The planets seemed to align this past weekend to create the perfect storm this past Friday and ideal conditions to snowmobile up in northern NH. I was also surprised to come home after riding 90 miles Sunday morning to find perfect weather for an evening ride on the motorcycle.

Driving conditions were a bit rough on our trip up north and I had a first experience as a passenger in a powerslide in a truck towing a 4 place trailer after going through the Notch in northern NH. Luckily my friend Brad was able to recover after seeing the trailer on both sides of the truck. Whew!

If you are into snowmobiling or snow sports and need to get your last run in for the season there still appears to be plenty of snow up in NH but check the forecast before heading up. Here are some pictures from our trip!

Perfectly groomed trails!

Unmanned gas pumps in the middle of no where just for us!

Perfect day for dog sledding too!
