riding on the pavement is just not a wise thing to do.it has little to do with horsepower but the design and characteristics of the machine,i dont know how long you have been riding atv but you will find this out one way or the other.

ohhh but i do know what im talking about.
just because your local laws and the place you live says its ok to ride on the road doesn't mean its safe.
check your manual and read the warning stickers that are stuck on your atv from the factory and maybe you will gain some knowledge about road riding.
talk to your insurance company also and ask them what kind of coverage you have if you get in an accident while riding your atv on the road then maybe you will understand what im talking about.
these atvs are not safe on the road no matter how many people are doing it in hickville USA.

What you fail to understand is I have at least 500 street miles on my ATV and not just back residential roads but high traffic roads running 50 MPH right alongside of other autos in some heavy traffic much of it on 4 lane undivided highway so I have been out there doing it.

what you fail to understand is that i have been riding for 30 years and used to do the same thing when i was young and dumb like you also.
i never had any major accident either but that doesnt make it safe.
keep rolling those dice and hopefully you wont loose because its gonna hurt if you do.

lol..yea that's the way it is here in new york, even when i was rippin up the roads i didnt really like it and it was just to get to a destination.
i much more prefer to ride off road even back then,that's where these things shine.
ride the way you want muddy ..let er rip.
im just hoping to connect with new riders to be safe.
