Riding Your ATV
Basic Operation & Riding
To make a sharp turn at low speed: It helps to shift your body slightly
forward on the seat, and lean inside, as you steer the handlebar. Shifting
weight forward allows the rear wheels to turn easier, and it also
improves front-wheel steering.
To make a turn from a full stop: Apply the throttle gradually when you
turn and start up at the same time. Remember to shift your body forward
to make sharp low-speed turns and whenever you turn while
accelerating from a full stop.
To make a turn on level ground: Steer the handlebar and lean your body
toward the inside of the turn. Leaning helps balance the vehicle, and it
feels more comfortable. Leaning into a turn is an important technique to
master in riding an ATV.
