Autumn is a season of change. Leaves fall, school returns to session and football kicks off across the country. For many, it's a time to set aside summer activities. That said, just because the weather is cooling doesn't mean that recreational opportunities disappear.
For powersports enthusiasts, some of Utah's forests, deserts, roads and trails have never been in a better condition for riding. A time when the final camping trips of the year take place, it's in these months where some of the best moments on a machine happen. At Young Powersports, it's also known as one of the best times to purchase a new ride.
"Around now, we typically get a mix of next year's machines as well as current inventory," said Nate Gailey, general manager of Young Powersports XL Centerville. "We start to discount a lot of our vehicles, and because the sun's still out, it allows people to buy at a great price, enjoy the tail end of the year and prepare for what's ahead."
This weekend, Young Powersports will partner with Goldenwest Credit Union to host their iconic Great Outdoors Sales event — offering specials on rates as well as cash back on parts, gear and accessory orders. If you're headed to a dealership, here are a few reasons why now may be the best time to take home your ride of the future:
There's still a lot of great riding left
Summer may be over, but that doesn't mean trails are packed with snow just yet. It does, however, mean that temperatures in the 100° range are beginning to disappear, creating more comfortable sessions for those who are looking to get out. This extends to destinations like St. George that can become too hot for riding during the warmer months.
"The temperature drops are especially great for motorcycle riders," Gailey said. "Fall riding is the best time to ride safely and comfortably while enjoying some incredible views."
Riding groups are also known to drop their prices during this time. The Ogden Cycle Association, for example, offers a fall special for non-working members — providing people with access to their tracks who may not be interested in engaging in the organization's efforts. This can be especially valuable for new riders who are looking to learn the fundamentals before excursions in the spring and summer.
Your machine can help make winter easier
Few chores are associated more with frustration and exhaustion than shoveling snow. It's for this reason that as SxS' and ATVs have increased in popularity, so have plow hookups.
Traditionally available for machines with an engine size above 450cc from manufacturers such as Polaris, Honda, Can-Am, Kawasaki, Suzuki, Yamaha, CFMOTO and Arctic Cat, these setups can be raised or lowered using either a winch or a manual lift kit. The mounting and removal process is also fairly simple, and can be taken care of by a technician at dealerships like a Young Powersports locations.
While there are practical uses for these vehicles in winter, there are also still ways to have fun — specifically with track kits. Swapping out tires, tracks allow riders to stay above the snow and tackle challenging terrain. Those with a dirtbike can also install a Polaris Timbersled kit to their machine, allowing them to ride their bike through fresh powder.
Unmatched discounts and rates
As dealerships clear out their inventory to make way for new arrivals, some of the industry's best prices appear on showroom floors. At Young Powersports, this movement is ushered in with the Great Outdoors Sale. Beginning tomorrow, those who make a qualifying purchase at one of their locations will receive no payments for 90 days and rates as low as 7.99% for 75 months when they finance through Goldenwest Credit Union.
Apart from the financing specials, Young Powersports also plans to offer credits on significant parts, accessory and gear orders, with:
- $1,000 back for purchases over $20,000.
- $500 back for purchases over $10,000.
- $250 back for purchases over $5,000.
"What makes Young Powersports an incredible partner for events like this is their focus on customer satisfaction," said Laurie Stuart, senior vice president at Goldenwest Credit Union. "They're a company dedicated to delivering value, and we trust them when it comes to taking care of our members."
Throughout the sale, Young Powersports will offer their lowest prices on some of their inventory as well. The promotion will end on Sept. 22 at close of business.
A dealership network with franchises in three states, those shopping the sale can do so from any of their dealerships in Logan, Pleasant View, Morgan, Ogden, Layton and Centerville as well as Burley, Idaho and Missoula, Montana. To view their new and used inventory, visit youngpowersports.com.
