Active riding involves moving your
body. You must learn to lean and shift
your weight into your turns to maintain
control.
Your safety depends on using safe rid-
ing techniques. Statistics from the U.S.
Consumer Product Safety Commission
(CPSC) say that inexperienced riders
who don’t use safe riding techniques
are
13 times more likely to have
an ATV accident
than riders who
have over 1 month of experience.
Safe riding techniques include:
• Riding
• Leaning, Weight Shift, and Balance
• Wide Turns
• Sharp Turns
• Quick Turns
• K-Turns
• Riding Uphill
• Riding Downhill
• Sidehilling/Traversing
• Swerving
• Crossing Obstacles
Riding
Once the engine’s warm, the ATV is
ready to go.

1. Keep your feet on the footrests and
both hands on the handlebar.
2. Hold the brake lever, and release
the brake lever lock.
3. Shift into gear.
4. Release the brake slowly and
apply the throttle.
Leaning, Weight Shift,
and Balance
When you turn, the trick is to move
forward and slide over to the side of the
seat that’s on the inside of the turn.
Support your body weight on the out-
side footrest. At the same time, lean
your body to the inside of the turn. Pay
attention to the handling—if you feel
the tires coming off the ground, reduce
speed, shift more of your body weight
to the side that’s lifting, and make the
turn wider if possible.
