How To Choose An ATV
Could your life use a little more excitement? Maybe you’re looking to get an adrenaline rush on the weekend after a long, slow work week, but you also want to be out in nature. An all-terrain vehicle (ATV, also quad or four wheeler) can give you those thrills while you’re out mudding or riding a scenic ATV trail. Big Country Powersports of Bowling Green, KY, is here to help you choose the perfect quad to fit your riding style.
How Will You Use It?
One of the first things you should determine is how you plan to use your four wheeler. ATVs come in several different types that are each geared towards a particular activity or riding style.
Smaller and faster four wheelers are great for sport riding and racing, and are commonly used for recreational riding.
If you want to use your quad for work, then a bigger, heavier vehicle is necessary in order to haul cargo.
If you’re a hunter, you may want your vehicle to have a camouflage finish and a weapon rack to better suit you as you ride through the forest.
Knowing how you plan to use your four wheeler will help you to eliminate options that won’t meet your needs, making your choice much easier.
Consider Features
ATVs can be fitted with several features to improve rider comfort, safety and convenience. These features may be standard on factory models or they could be aftermarket additions. Either way, knowing the features that are important to you will help you choose an appropriate vehicle.
Some examples of specialized features:
Hunters might want an LED light bar for dawn and dusk riding conditions under tree cover.
Professional workers may want a hitch and a cargo rack.
Sport riders could benefit from a stronger suspension to improve their comfort while riding in difficult areas.
If you have very specific intent for your vehicle, it makes sense to choose one that either has or can be outfitted with the features you need to make your riding experience better.
