Riding Uphill
Many accidents happen while riding on
hills and as a result of the ATV rolling or
flipping. So, obviously, use extreme cau-
tion and follow this method for riding
uphill.
1. Shift down and accelerate before you
start climbing; then maintain a steady
pace.
2. Lean as far forward as possible. For
steeper hills, come off your seat to
stand and lean forward.
3. If you lose speed, release the throttle
(so your front tires don't lift), OR
4. If that doesn't work and you still have
forward motion and the terrain per-
mits, do a U-turn, go back down, and
try climbing again, OR
5. If you have lost all forward motion,
follow the K-turn procedure.
NEVER OPERATE UP OR
DOWN HILLS STEEPER
THAN 25°
