In 2003, Bombardier Inc. sold its Recreational Products Division to a group of investors: Bain Capital (50%), Bombardier Family (35%) and Caisse de Dépôt & Placements du Québec (15%).
50% of BRP is actually owned by the US...

Suzuki will still own part of cat, they are just building a facility here so they dont have to pay taxes ect for every motor they ship to cat from japan.
simply put theres a cost to ship every motor, why not build it where the sleds are being built?
with all brand new tooling, it should be state of the art! hopefully suzuki puts there quality control measures in stone at the new facility, i dont see why they wouldnt.

In the world of intellectual property, getting around (or not getting around) patents comes down to the most minute design details. Obviously BRP has some claims that they feel are being infringed on. They would not be willing to invest the huge amounts of money it takes to bring a lawsuit against Cat if not clearly (in their mind) in the right. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.
I agree, but on the other side, I highly doubt that Cat would be willing to invest in materials, molds, tooling, etc. if they thought there was any chance they were in the wrong. I bet they have a huge legal team that examines such things before commitments are made. So how do most lawsuits play out? Settlements to avoid trials. I bet that is what Doo is counting on, to get whatever it is they want.

EPA requirements are as tight as they are going to get. No plans for future tightening as of now. '12 was the last stage. Who knows, could be more down the road.
Just got my pro climb back from getting a heart transplant and i didnt cone back with and buzzin bees or an etec in it so that is a good sign. Dealer is also a doo dealer and did not hold her hostage. Glad they didnt, wouldnt want to get Reagan involved

The lawyers win every time. Drag this out as long as possible and continue to suck each company dry. What a shame.

Ski don’ts don’t sidehill. Anytime you see one that appears to be sidehilling in movies its all false. What they are really doing is turning the camera sideways to make it appear that way!
And when you think you see one is sidehilling in real life, its really just the earth’s gravity switching for a few moments to make it appear like its sidehilling!
Poor Skiz diz...

Do you think they will be Ski-Cats or Arctic-Doos?

Per this lawsuit, isn't that what the 2012 Cat is? Or did you mean to say a "Yellow Cat" which would make sense if your implying that BRP's next move is to copy Cat.
