Active Riding
Overview
"Active Riding" is the second part of "P.A.S.S." It involves an understanding of how
your body weight, balance, gravity, and physical forces affect the handling of the
ATV. For example, when you drive a car quickly into a sharp turn, your body is pulled
to the outside of the turn by centrifugal force. Although a car is relatively stable,
enough centrifugal force can cause the ATV to overturn. Constantly shifting operator
and passenger weight is one major difference between driving a car and riding the
ATV. Knowing how to shift your weight is necessary to avoid rolling or flipping the
ATV.
For complete operating instructions, see ATV OPERATION section in this manual.
