ATV Operation
Riding Downhill
Success in riding downhill depends on how well you know your
brakes - take it easy on them, or you could flip over.
1. Shift your body weight as far back on the seat as possible.
2. Lightly apply the brakes and ease up on the throttle.
Wide Turns
About 20% of ATV accidents happen during turns. If you don’t
understand turning techniques, it’s easy for the ATV to get away
from you by losing traction, plowing, or tipping.
1. Ease off the throttle as you approach the turn to slow down.
2. Use the principles of leaning, weight shifting, and balancing -
shift your body weight to the inside of the turn.
3. Gradually increase your speed as you come out of the turn.
Sharp Turns
After mastering wide turns, practice the advanced skill of sharp
turns.
1. Ease off the throttle as you approach the turn to slow down.
2. Use the principles of leaning, weight shifting, and balancing -
shift your body weight to the inside of the turn.
3. You might have to lean into the turn more than you do in a
wide turn.
4. If shifting your weight and balance aren’t enough to keep the
ATV tires on the ground, straighten out the handlebars as
much as you can.
5. Gradually increase your speed as you come out of the turn.
