Kids Safety Riding ATV’s
Written by BWP on January 22, 2009 – 6:09 am -Kids ATV and Youth ATV are a great match with today’s active youth. A youth ATV or kids ATV can allow years of fun and excitement not just for your kids, but for the entire family. Kids twelve to sixteen should drive four wheelers below 90 cc’s. Only children above the age of sixteen should drive an adult ATV which can attain much higher speeds. Children younger than sixteen are twice as likely to be hurt on adult ATVs as compared to those riding youth ATVs. Children are especially vulnerable to poor judgement in the use of these powerful vehicles. Product Safety Commission reports in one study that ninety-five percent of children hurt on ATVs were driving vehicles greater than the size suggested for their age. Read More →

ATV Safety
Written by BWP on January 22, 2009 – 6:03 am -ATV safety is paramount in our opinion. Please consider the time to study all of the safety materials that accompanied your ATV.

Utility ATV’s Are All Purpose Machines
Written by BWP on January 21, 2009 – 7:52 pm -ATV Utility usage broke loose in the eighties and ATVs turned into multi-purpose machines, functioning as both utility and recreation purposes. Utility ATVs are generally used for loading and hauling things, which requires a larger exterior to carry objects. Utility ATVs operate hard with years of know how on farms, ranches, construction sites and anyplace people have jobs to get done. Rugged, dependable and long-lasting, nothing amounts to Honda’s value for the money. I’d be inclined to break up the categories of these fine machines into two major classes; the Sports ATV class and the Utility ATV class. Read More →
