Rider
Developing your riding skills is an on-going process. Even if you have
ridden other ATVs, take time to become familiar with how this ATV
works and handles. Practice riding the ATV in a safe area to build your
skills. Do not ride in rough terrain until you get accustomed to the
ATV’s controls, and feel comfortable with its size and weight.
We urge all riders to take a ATV operator course approved by the ATV
Safety Institute (ASI). For information about the ASI training course
nearest you, call the national toll-free number; (800) 887-2887.
Other riding tips can be found in the
booklet that came with your ATV.
