REMEMBER – Your ATV may or may not have all the parts and controls shown in these illustrations. Also, their positions may vary from model to model. Consult your owner's manual to learn the specific parts, controls, and locations for your model.

Practice Learning Your Controls

You should sit on your ATV and practice locating each control without looking at it. Operating a control by second nature can be critical in emergency situations.
