Preparing Your ATV for Spring and Summer Riding

When you’re gearing up for your first ride of the season after the winter months, it's paramount to understand the maintenance needs of your ATV. Regular check-ups extend the lifespan of your vehicle, improve riding quality, and ensure safety on the trails. Begin with a thorough inspection of the key components like the engine, brakes, and tires.

Checking the Engine and Fluid Levels

After a long winter hiatus, your ATV's engine may need some TLC. Start by changing the oil if you didn't do so before winter storage. Check other fluid levels such as coolant, brake, and transmission fluids to ensure they are at optimal levels.

Inspect the Tires

Tire integrity is critical for safe and enjoyable rides. Check for uneven wear down, cracks or any punctures that could cause flat tires when riding. Air pressure also affects stability on rough terrains; ensure it's at manufacturer-recommended levels.

Assess the Brakes 

Having functioning brakes can be a matter of life and death in certain circumstances. It's always better to over-inspect than under-inspect these crucial parts that ensure a safe riding experience.
