Just the other day I was out riding and got hung up on a down tree that was lying across the trail. That is not a good feeling, but having  it happen made me wonder if anyone was making lift kits for ATV's. What I found was some kits that take your ATV from a stock ATV and turns it into a machine of basically any size you want.


Check out this picture of a Yamaha Grizzley lifted 12" or better (top right). This ATV is crazy huge. I found this picture on monsteratvs.com and the name of there web site fits there content perfectly. If you are in need of a lift kit for your ATV, whether its 2" or 10" check out yaskyatv.com. They have a nice selection of solid lift kits for your ATV and there are also some other links on this page that might be able to help with your lifting needs.

Top Sport/Racing ATVs

Quad racing is right around the corner and the engineers, tuners, and riders have been out testing there equipment. The testing results are in and we get to see all the new ideas for 2008. Can-Am released its highly anticipated DS450 with a frame like no other. Yamaha beefs up there 700R so it’s capable of 9000 RPM's stock and the YFZ 450 comes from the factory with a very impressive five titanium valve head. I’ve broke these machines down to size and I’ll tell you what I think is the best sport/racing ATV on the market for 2008!

Well the new year is in and guess what? A whole new breed of ATVs has arrived. I can’t wait for the new year for that one simple reason. The technology of these new ATVs is amazing, Like the Yamaha Grizzly coming out with power steering {who would have thought} and the new 800 EFI 80 degree engine that is making sick power, and not to mention the huge independent suspension these beasts are coming stock with.

 

 I've been looking into the new designs to see if its time to upgrade my 650 Honda Rincon for something bigger and better and I have found several hardcore utility ATVs to upgrade into. Here below is a list of what I found to be the biggest baddest stock top five ATVs on the market.

 This is becoming a big topic in the riding world.  I started out riding when 2 strokes were dominant.  Two Strokes are fast when you look at how little the engines cc's are (example the 250cc.)They have great power but only through a relatively small range of high rpms.  This is where the problems come into play.  If you’re a new rider, its hard to keep the rpms in the small window of good power.  Two strokes always keep the riders on there toes.  They want to be shifted a lot, the clutch slipped, and the rpms screaming.  This can make for a lot of fun. The maintenance on a 2 stroke is pretty basic since they use reeds instead of valves.  The only tricky thing about some 2 stroke motors is most of them require the oil to be mixed right in with the fuel.  It is very simple to do, just be sure to keep a jug for premixed fuel only.  How to premix my fuel.
