[I79]I Want To Buy A House

This is the tough question that parents must face
when purchasing a kids youth ATV. Is it safe for
my child to ride an ATV? Like anything else there
are certain risks involved and elements of danger.
A bicycle is dangerous and can cause injury, a
skateboard, a trampoline and even walking to
school. Parents tell their children to ride a
helmet when riding a bike and staying on the bike
path and away from cars. This is how parents
manage risk and minimize injury The same approach
needs to be followed with ATV riding.

First, buy an appropriate sized ATV. Extreme
Motor Sales has ATV's from 50cc - 110cc for youth
ATVs. All too often parent's want to buy an ATV
that is too powerful and too large for children.
The reason they give?, "I want him or her to grow
into that ATV so I don't have to buy another so
soon". Extreme Motor Sales' ATV's are so
reasonably priced that you can purchase a 50cc
ATV for $600.00. Allow your child to learn how to
ride on a size appropriate ATV or Dirt Bike and
once they have mastered the mechanics for safe
ATV quad riding ,move them up in size. Small ATV'
s hold their resale value and you will be able to
recoup those costs while keeping your child safe.
Most ATV's come with fantastic safety features to
keep your child safe while learning to ride such
as throttle limiters or governors', which is a
small screw attached to the throttle box that
allows you to limit the speed of the quad ATV.
Tighten the screw down and the ATV can be slowed
down to a maximum of 5 MPH, loosen it to increase
the speed as the child becomes more experienced.
Also available are ATVs with remote controls, the
remote allows you to start, stop and set an
audible alarm on the ATV. If the child is driving
towards a dangerous area and you want them to
stop, you don't have to yell or chase them down,
just hit the stop button also known as remote
kill switch and the engine shuts off and the ATV
comes to a gradual stop. Another safety feature
are foot wells, which are foot guards that
connect from the front wheel fender to the rear
wheel fender, that prevent children from putting
their feet down and getting tangled in with the
wheels. Remember the old 3-wheelers, they only
had foot pegs, and if you put your foot down the
rear wheel could and did run over them causing
injury. Not the case any more.

Next, think safety gear. Use a recommended,
quality dot, Department of Transportation
approved helmet. Our dot youth helmets start at $
60.00. Often heard?."What is the cheapest ATV
helmet that you have?" Don't make the same
mistake, spend the money on a good helmet now and
keep your child safe forever. You can get
complete gear packages including helmet, goggles,
chest protector, boots, jersey, pants and gloves
for $299.99. Extreme Motor Sales has the RSVP
program, which is Ride Safely Value Program that
gives you an extra 10% off youth gear purchases
when purchasing a youth ATV. Purchase the safety
gear and enforce the rules of wearing safety gear
while riding or no riding at all. If you do not
reinforce the importance of safety then your
child will not either.

Finally, an ATV is not a babysitter or a way to
keep your child busy while you do other things.
Children must be supervised by an adult at all
times. There is no substitute for adult
supervision to keep children safe while riding.
Do not allow kids to ride passengers at any time.
If you are not familiar with proper ATV riding
there are local groups that provide ATV safety
courses.

Ride Safe, Ride Smart and Ride Forever.
