Yamaha Launches Cash Rebate Program for Powersports Line
Yamaha Motor Corp. has launched a cash rebate program for its entire powersports line to help boost sales of motorcycles, ATVs, side by sides, and snowmobiles.
CYPRESS, Calif. – Yamaha Motor Corp. has launched a cash rebate program for its entire powersports line to help boost sales of motorcycles, ATVs, side by sides, and snowmobiles.
“This is absolutely one of the best customer cash programs we’ve ever seen on snowmobiles— and the motorcycle, ATV and side by side offers are also as strong as we’re likely to see for a long time,” said Yamaha’s Motorsports General Manager, Bob Starr.
“This is just simply one of the best times ever for a customer to buy a new Yamaha motorsports product.”
Through the “Let’s Ride” incentive program customers can receive up to $1,500 on 2009 snowmobile models, and $2,000 on 2008 or prior year models. Through the “Get Out and Ride” program customers can receive up to $1,000 cash back on 2008 and earlier off-road motorcycle and sport ATV models. Both programs end March 26, 2009.
