PRE-RIDE CHECKLIST

We encourage you to have an An-
nual Safety Inspection of your vehi-
cle. Please contact an authorized BRP
dealer for further details. Though not
required, it is recommended that an
authorized BRP dealer performs the
preseason preparation of your vehi-
cle. Each visit to your authorized BRP
dealer is a great opportunity for your
dealer to verify if your vehicle is in-
cluded in any safety campaign. We
also urge you to visit your authorized
BRP dealer in a timely manner if you
become aware of any safety related
campaigns.
