Here in Itasca County, we live for the outdoors. Whether it’s ripping through fresh powder on a snowmobile, hammering down a muddy ATV trail, tearing up a motocross track on a dirt bike, blasting across the lake in the boat, or exploring the backcountry in a side-by-side, our toys get worked hard—and sometimes they break.
That’s where we come in.
At Itasca Automotive, we’re not just your go-to shop for cars and trucks. We’re also northern Minnesota’s trusted power sports repair specialists. Snowmobiles, ATVs, UTVs/side-by-sides, dirt bikes, and even boats—we fix them all.
Why Bring Your Power Sports Toys to Us?
1. We Actually Ride & Run What We Fix Our technicians aren’t just turning wrenches in a shop all day—they’re out on the same trails, lakes, and tracks you are. When your sled is bogging because of a bad stator, your RZR is throwing a check-engine light after a muddy weekend, or your outboard won’t stay running above 3,000 RPM, we’ve probably seen (and felt) the exact same problem ourselves.
2. Year-Round Service Winter: clutch kits, hyfax, carb cleaning, track studding, heated shield cords, engine rebuilds—you name it. Summer: suspension setups, jetting for the heat, winch installs, propeller repair, lower unit reseals, and everything in between. We don’t close up shop when the snow melts; we just switch from Ski-Doo diagnostics to Polaris RANGER repairs and Mercury outboard service.
3. All Major Brands Welcome
- Snowmobiles: Ski-Doo, Polaris, Arctic Cat, Yamaha
- Side-by-Sides & ATVs: Polaris, Can-Am, Honda, Yamaha, Kawasaki
- Dirt Bikes: Honda, Yamaha, KTM, Kawasaki, Suzuki
- Boats & Outboards: Mercury, Yamaha, Evinrude/BRP, Honda, Suzuki
No loyalty to one color here—we just want to get you back outside.
4. Fully Equipped Shop We’ve got the latest diagnostic tools, dyno capabilities for sleds and bikes, welding and fabrication for cracked frames or custom bumpers, and a parts network that can often have what we need in as little as 24–48 hours.
5. Honest, Fair Pricing We live here too. We know what it’s like to dump a pile of money into toys that sit broken in the garage. We’ll give you straight answers, realistic timelines, and pricing that won’t make you choke on your coffee.
Common Jobs We Knock Out Every Week
- Snowmobile clutch rebuilds & primary/spring upgrades
- Side-by-side CVT belt changes and clutch alignment
- Dirt bike top-end rebuilds and valve adjustments
- ATV winch & plow installs before the first snowfall
- Boat winterization and spring start-up service
- Lower unit repairs after “just one more rock check”
- Electrical gremlins (yes, even on that 2024 model with the fancy touchscreen)
Ready to Get Back Out There?
Whether your sled is stuck in the shop with a blown belt at -20°F, your four-wheeler won’t start the day before opener, or your boat is taking on water faster than you can bail, give us a call or swing by Itasca Automotive.
We’ll get you diagnosed fast, repaired right, and back where you belong—on the trail, in the woods, or out on the lake.
