  • Argo Accessories

    Is there a reason there are no aftermarket Argo accessories available. I'm talking like, gunboots, storage boxes, different cab options, etc.

    Just find it odd that no company besides Adair has started producing Argo goodies, like the other manufacturers ie. Polaris, Yamaha etc

    I've noticed myself putting in time in R&D, cause I refuse to pay the unreasonable prices from ARGO itself.

    Cheers

    I think it's two things.
    Small market.
    Owners who by nature are more industrious tinkerers.
    That said a friend I have been talking about how a cottage industry type company could market some cool things. Probably couldn't live off of it but could have fun!

      I think you answered your own question.

      The R&D time is the same for Argo regardless of the final market size. If they spend several weeks developing an accessory while also shelling out money for tooling and they can only sell a few dozen of them a year, the items are going to be very expensive to cover their costs.

        Bingo and Bango, the market is small. If Argo sold 100,000 units a year there would be plenty of offerings, this is an open market and should you go that route, good luck with the venture.
