Safe Riding Tips

Sidehilling

Sidehilling your ATV is one of the most dangerous types of
riding and should be avoided if possible. In the event you do
enter into a situation where sidehilling is necessary, always:
1. Slow

down.

2. Lean into the hill transferring your upper body weight toward the hill

while keeping your feet on the footrests.

3. Steer slightly into the hill to maintain vehicle directions.
If vehicle begins to tip, quickly turn the front wheel downhill, if
possible, or dismount on the uphill side immediately!

Improperly crossing hills or turning on hills can be dangerous.
Loss of vehicle control or overturning of the ATV could occur
causing severe injury or death.
