A few weeks ago there a a dealership on E-bay going out of business and selling Bomb. atvs at killer prices. Guess what....my local Bomb. is folding also!!! Thought about getting the DS650, but service is going to be an issue. What's up with this!

 

huh, that figures. Are they just bomb dealers?

 

the closest bomb dealer discontinued the ATV line about a year ago, the dealer I use now just informed me that they very likely will not be carring the bomb line of ATV starting next year- they claim that bombardier requires them to buy more inventory than they can move. : something is wrong in Bomb land!

 

Yeah, thats the same way here in Michigan. The dealer that i bought mine from stopped selling the atv line 2 years ago. They said Bomb was too hard to get along with. So instead of local dealer 20 minutes away, now its 60. Cool huh?? That's why i'm buying a new YFZ next year!!

 

Thats not the case here in california. More and more Bombardier dealers are opening.

 

Our local Bomb dealer hasn't closed his doors, but he does seem to be out of touch with the rest of the world. I bought my '05 DS almost two months ago from one of the forum members here that is a Bomb dealer in another state. When I went into the local Bomb dealer yesterday to buy an oil filter for my '05 DS he told me I didn't know what I was talking about, and that I had to have an '04 DS, because the "05 models had not even come out yet.

What is the tenth digit of the VIN# on your 05 bought 2 months ago?

222

 

'05 DS, Outlanders and Traxters are in stock now. We got our first Bomb '05s over a month ago.
Oil filter for '05 DS is the same since '01. The long one. Enjoy.

 

The place I bought my Ds, closed its doors 1 week after I bought my Ds. I have to travel 3 hours north to get Parts.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

 

5 And the VIN # on the title actually matches the VIN # on the ATV as well. I think some dealers that had '04 DS's on order late in '04 were given early release '05 DS's because Bombardier ran out of '04 DS's early in the year.
