Do  not  mount  an  accessory  where  it  could
interfere  with  your  ability  to  control  the
ATV.  Examples  include  (but  are  not  limited
to)  a  heavy  or  bulky  object  attached  to  the
handlebars which could make steering diffi-
cult,  an  accessory  that  limits  your  ability  to
move around on the seat, or one that limits
your view.
Use extra caution when riding an ATV with
accessories. The ATV may handle different-
ly than it does without accessories.

signed  to  carry  cargo  or  tow  a  trailer.  If  you
choose to add accessories so that you can car-
ry  cargo  or  tow  a  trailer,  you  must  use  com-
mon  sense  and  good  judgement.  Keep  the
following points in mind:

As you approach a curve, slow down and begin
to turn the handlebars in the desired direction.
As you do so, put your weight on the footboard
to the outside of the turn (opposite your desired
direction)  and  lean  your  upper  body  into  the
turn. Use the throttle to maintain an even speed
through  the  turn.  This  maneuver  will  let  the
wheel on the inside of the turn slip slightly, al-
lowing the ATV to make the turn properly.
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  riding  sur-
face 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.
