ATV Operation
Sharp Turns
After mastering wide turns, practice the
advanced skill of sharp turns.
1. Ease off the throttle as you approach
the turn to slow down.
2. Use the principles of leaning, weight
shifting, and balancing —shift your
body weight to the inside of the turn.
3. You might have to lean into the turn
more than you do in a wide turn.
4. If shifting weight and balance aren't
enough to keep the tires on the
ground, straighten out the handlebars
as much as you can.
5. Gradually increase your speed as you
come out of the turn.
Quick Turns
Quick turns are the most difficult turns
and should only be done after you are
experienced with your ATV.

1. Ease off the throttle as you approach
the turn to slow down.
2. Turn the handlebars and shift weight
and balance at the same time as you
enter the turn (use the principles of
leaning, weight shifting, and balanc-
ing — shift your body weight to the
inside of the turn).
3. Follow this with slight acceleration.
4. For multiple turns, repeat this move-
ment as needed.
5. To make your turn quicker, try raising
yourself off the seat a few inches as
you shift your weight.
