It is one thing to take an ATV out for a recreational tour of the wilderness. However It is dangerous enough when you have the liberty to go slow, turn back or get out and clear the route before you take your four-wheeler over that terrain. In a racing situation, you are pushing that ATV to its speed limits and the driver will commonly charge right into unfamiliar terrain that may have hidden dangers because of the need to move quickly to win the race.

Going “four wheeling” is a sport that returns that sense of freedom and adventure to the use of a motorized vehicle that has largely disappeared in other types of driving. The fact that a four-wheeler is made to allow you to go off road appeals to the adventuresome side of us. Its fun to use your ATV to explore wooded areas, to get to that remote lake for some serious camping or fishing or just to have some off road fun racing or kicking up some dust.

But one priority that is common to the working man’s ATV and to the recreational four-wheeler has always been a top priority to Honda and that is safety. Even if you are out to have the adventure of a lifetime going off road with nothing else in mind than having fun, safety is a priority. Honda knew that even if the customer was not thinking about safety, that ATV had to have safety built into ever aspect of the vehicle. That is why Honda ATVs have a tremendous record of safe operations in a wide variety of sport and utility uses.

By the same token, you know the dangers that driving an ATV off road can present. The caution and common sense that is second nature to an adult are often absent in the very young. So it is up to the adults in their lives to help children and especially teenagers to develop that common sense that may not be that common at a young age. If you make that a priority and you impress on your kiddos the need to learn to drive an ATV responsibly, then you can begin to bring them along on the road to four-wheeler ownership.

The market for used ATVs is an active one. So if you have been thinking about buying a four-wheeler for fun, sport or for work, the used market may be a good answer for you. Many of the best makes and models of four-wheelers are built with such a high priority on durability and quality that they command lots of attention on the used market. Yamaha, in particular, is a make of ATV that holds up extraordinarily well on the used market. While that might mean you pay a little more for a used Yamaha ATV, it also means that you will be getting quality vehicle that will perform well for you now and for many years to come even if you bought the four wheeler used.
