Hi everyone -
I am looking for an answer as to how one can cause a bent tunnel on a snowmobile. I rented a snowmobile Christmas day along with a friend and we went on a guided tour, stayed on the trail, did not run over anything except snow on a hard packed trail.
At one point we were going up a hill very slowly and the trail turned right and during the turn my friend caught the left ski in some powder and the sled dumped us on our left side. We didn't hit anything, it was slow and there was no damage to the left side of the sled.
The tour guide came to help us right the sled and asked about some damage he saw on the right and asked if we'd hit a rock. We stated we did not (and we had not).
The sled was righted and we continued to ride on the trails and around the rental company's open "race track" at relatively high rates of speed (the speedometer wasn't working on this sled the entire ride).
So is there any way this would have caused a bent tunnel?
I have been charged $1,000 to my credit card and I am disputing it. I am fine paying for damage I cause to anything but I sincerely do not think I damaged this machine. (there were no pre-or post-trip inspections either and the sled went out with the next snowmobile tour they had).
Does this make sense to anyone that we could have caused $1,000 damage by tipping it over on the left? And, if a bent tunnel could be caused like this would the machine run any differently or have substandard performance?
Thanks for any insights. I have to respond to my credit card company by tomorrow.
Cheers!
