Driving Safely

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.

NOTE:

Practice making turns at slow speeds.

WARNING

Turning at sharp angles or at excessive speeds can result in vehicle overturn and lead to serious

injury. Avoid turning at sharp angles. Never turn at high speeds.
