RIDING YOUR ATV
TURNING YOUR ATV
To achieve maximum traction while riding off road, the
two rear wheels are mounted solidly on one axle and turn
together at the same speed. Therefore, unless the wheel
on the inside of the turn is allowed to slip or lose some
traction, the ATV will resist turning. A special turning
technique must be used to allow the ATV to make turns
quickly and easily. It is essential that this skill be learned
first at low speed.
WARNING
POTENTIAL HAZARD
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Turning improperly
ATV could go out of control, causing a collision or over-
turn.
A lways follow proper procedures fo r turni ng as
described in this Owner's Manual.
Practice turning at low speeds before attempting to turn
at faster speeds. Do not turn at speeds too fast for your
skills or the conditions.
Do not turn at excessive speeds.
As you approach a curve, slow down and begin to turn the
handlebars in the desired direction. As you do so, put your
weight on the footboard to the outside of the turn
(opposite your desired direction) and lean your upper
body into the turn. Use the throttle to maintain an even
speed through the turn. This maneuver will let the wheel
on the inside of the turn slip slightly, allowing the ATV to
make the turn properly.
