Ken's Sports, Inc. was established in 1968 by Ken Vander Loop and his wife, Mary, in what was then a Standard Oil Service Station on the corner of "OO and "N" in Little Chute. The sport of snowmobiling was just coming into its prime and the couple decided to supplement the service station business by selling snowmobiles. Ken's first venture was the Skiroule brand and shortly thereafter Rupp was added. In 1972, the Arctic Cat franchise became available when Stumpf Ford decided to sell out that portion of their business. And, in 1982 the Polaris snowmobile line was also added. In the early 1970'...

Just bought a boat from these guys. The whole experience couldn't have gone any better. Brian in sales was great, answered all my questions and helped me get on the road when I picked the boat up. If you need anything for outdoor motorsports, definitely give these guys a chance to earn your business. You'll be impressed!
Just putting this out there for anyone wanting to do business with Ken’s Sports in Kaukauna. We were looking for a used snowmobile for my wife and thought we would buy one from a dealer so we didn’t end up with someone else’s junk off of marketplace. We bought a machine, hauled it all the way to Hayward and it didn’t even make it 20 miles and the engine blew up. Called them up and they said bring it back and we’ll rebuild the motor. Thought this is great-someone actually standing behind what they sell. They “rebuilt “ the engine asking us to pay for the other piston so we would have a whole new motor so we agreed. Haul the sled back up North made it about 200 miles and the engine locked up again. Brought it back to Ken’s and they said yep the crank we put in it was junk and now it wrecked the case and everything is worse than before. This time though they said too bad we’re not fixing it we’ll give you $1000.00 for it for salvage. Long story short bought a snowmobile for 5400.00 got about 220 miles out of it and was offered $1000.00 for it because they put junk parts in it trying to patch it up and it bit them in the ass. Now we’re paying for it. The answer we got from Chris the owner was yeah it sucks guess you should have bought a new one. Think twice before buying from them. I sure wish I would’ve read the Yelp reviews before buying from them. 😟
I needed a stainless steel Prop and know nothing about what to order. I sent an email to Ken's Sports and got a reply the next day. I called the person on the email Matt, and he make a couple suggestions. I got the information he needed and he got me set up with a prop and explained why this prop. No pressure sale just good facts. same day shipping. I highly recommend this business.
Just purchased a kayo 70 from Ken’s. The atv was listed under new inventory but when I scheduled a showing I was told it was new but some one bought it and immediately returned and it was still new. I was a little worried but went through with it. I bought the atv drove home and immediately attempted to adjust the throttle for my kid. The throttle adjustment was stripped and missing parts. I called the dealer (within 2 hours of purchase) and sent them the pictures and descriptions. They said it was as is and I should go to the hardware store or order the new part which is $25. I totally get the as is purchase and that is what is, I was just a little disappointed with the unwillingness to help a customer with a $25 part a few hours after purchase. Not the best feeling for my first kid first atv purchase. We will make the best of it and make a little project fixing it together. The dealer itself is nice and have a lot of machines on hand to check out. Everyone was decent talking too but no different than any other dealer
Extremely happy with my buying experience from Ken’s Sports in Kaukauna, Wisconsin. They don’t have prep, setup, destination fees like other motorcycle dealers. Spent 6 and half hours driving to that dealer and will do it again if want to buy a new motorcycle. Specially want to say thank you to sales person Derek who did everything and above to help me to buy my new bike. Their tech team is highly experienced and go through all details to make sure you know your new bike very well. Highly recommend this dealer if you’re on the market for a new bike!

Buying a boat from Ken's Sports in Kaukauna, Wisconsin? Use this guide to evaluate any listing before you commit.
Match the boat to your waters
Pontoons and deck boats suit calm lakes. Deep-V hulls handle chop on larger lakes and coastal water. Center consoles are versatile for fishing. Ask Ken's Sports which models suit the waterways near Kaukauna, Wisconsin.
Inspect the hull carefully
Look for stress cracks, blistering, or repairs on fiberglass hulls. Check the transom for soft spots by pressing firmly — a solid transom feels rigid. Osmotic blistering costs thousands to repair.
Check engine hours
Inboard and outboard engines are typically rated to 1,500–3,000 hours. Low-hour engines with service records are worth more. Ask to see oil change and winterization records for any boat at Ken's Sports.
Request a sea trial
Test the boat on the water before buying. Run it at full throttle. Listen for unusual noises. Check that the throttle and steering respond smoothly. Reputable dealers like Ken's Sports will accommodate this request.
Verify title and registration
Ask for the current title and confirm the hull identification number (HIN) matches. Check for any liens with your state boating agency. Ken's Sports should be able to walk you through the paperwork.
