Lean towards
inside of turn
This procedure should be practiced at slow
speed many times in a large off-road area
with no obstacles. If an incorrect technique is
used, your ATV may continue to go straight.
If the ATV doesn't turn, come to a stop and
then practice the procedure again. If the rid-
ing surface is slippery or loose, it may help to
position more of your weight over the front
wheels by moving forward on the seat.
Once you have learned this technique you
should be able to perform it at higher speeds
or in tighter curves.
Support your
weight on the
outer footrest
Improper riding procedures such as abrupt
throttle changes, excessive braking, incorrect
body movements, or too much speed for the
sharpness of the turn may cause the ATV to
tip. If the ATV begins to tip over to the out-
side while negotiating a turn, lean more to
the inside. It may also be necessary to gradu-
ally let off on the throttle and steer to the out-
side of the turn to avoid tipping over.
Remember: Avoid higher speeds until you
are thoroughly familiar with the operation of
your ATV.
