Making Tu rns
Your ATV is equipped with a solid rear axle, which drives both rear
wheel s 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, l eaning your upper body to the inside of t he
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. The same leaning t echnique
should be used for turning in reverse.
NOTE: Practice making turns at slow speeds before attempting to turn
at faster speeds.
WARNING
T urning 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.
