Making Turns

Your ATV is equipped with a solid rear axle,

which drives both rear wheels equally at all

times. This means that the wheel on the outside

of the turn must travel a greater distance than the

inside wheel when turning and the inside tire

must slip traction slightly.
To turn, steer in the direction of the turn, leaning

your upper body to the inside of the turn while

supporting your weight on the outer footrest.

This technique alters the balance of traction

between the rear wheels, allowing the turn to be

made smoothly.
Practice making turns at slow speeds.

WARNING! Turning improperly can result in vehicle

overturn. Never turn abruptly or at sharp angles.

Never turn at high speeds.
