Lanes Yamaha

We stopped to look at the Yamaha side-by-sides. The salesperson was very friendly and let us take several test rides on different models. As we were very interested in purchasing one, the salesperson was not pressing us and even gave us the information on the model we liked to explore loans from our local banks and credit unions. We decided in the end not to make the purchase and the salesperson kindly thanked us for stopping in and considering to buy one of there products. This business has been in business for many many years, and I would definitely return when ready to buy! I highly recommend Lanes Yamaha!!

I did not contact Lane's because I don't want compensation and this was a learning experience for me. I'm going to start by saying I had a good and bad experience with Lane's Yamaha but mostly good. I believe my machine is too old for them to work on. I use my Grizzly just to plow the driveway so when I got it back after being at their shop for 3 months from (January-March 2020) then it sat in my garage until February 2021 (the first snow fall). I sent the Grizzly to Lane's because it needed a cooling fan, an air filter, it had a winch issue and it has a shifting issue going into park. When I called in March I was informed that they called and left messages, none of which I received. However, that is neither here nor there because I didn't care how long it took as long as it came back right.The point I'm going to make is the tech should have known. My driveway is quite large. I didn't get to finish plowing when I noticed antifreeze on the ground. I immediately shut it off to see where it was coming from. When I stuck my head in the front right wheel well the radiator blew up. The temperature light was not illuminated at any given time so I was caught completely off guard. To make a long story short. The Moose Racing cooling fan that I agreed to have installed because Moose is a good brand and it was half the price of an OEM fan, that was where the problem began. Moose fans draw more power than an OEM. The inline circuit breaker needs to be changed in order to keep the fan running continuously. When the machine gets up to operating temperature the fan would shutdown and restart but not in a manner to cool the radiator. It's off more than on. I also asked them to fix my winch because the winch that was on the machine was not Yamaha they declined to help. It still has issues going into park.

Lane's is the place to go for all things Yamaha: dirt bikes, 4-wheelers, side-by-sides, motorcycles. They specialize in sales, repairs, and gear. The staff is excellent and work hard. They are also generous and let our Girl Scout troop hold a cookie booth there this year. :) The April Open House is also a fun event with free food and the ability to walk through the premises.
