The ATV business is huge – and still growing. ATV sales make up 1/3 of motorcycle sales (they’re classified together) and ATVs of all types and sizes are available for pure sport and for recreation/utility use. They are incredibly durable and powerful and can traverse steep and uneven terrain. Their primary purpose is usually work, but every ATV is also used for recreational riding because they are so fun to operate.
Fueling ATVs sales today and in the years ahead are the prime targets for this book: homeowners who have land but did not grow up on farms and thus are not particularly familiar with tractors or motor vehicles. This title by a respected industry veteran will tell new buyers everything they need to know to select (and outfit with accessories) the ATV that best suits their needs. This title offers current ATV owners a wealth of information about other uses for their ATVs, accessories, maintenance and more.

ATV's Everything you need to know,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: ATVs: Everything You Need to Know (Everything You Need to Know) (Paperback)
This book would be great for someone who likes atvs or needs one but doesn't know much about them. If you read a few certain chapters you would be ready to go to a dealership and pick out the ATV you want and/or need. Its not the most detailed book because the author trys to span the entire spectrum of atvs in stead of just focusing on the stock atvs themselves. He really shows his expertice in many areas but neglects some other areas.
Overall very good book for the ATV newbie or a seasoned rider who wants some new tips and ideas, or just to sit back and read about ATVs! Ordered Amazon at a good price with fast shipping again!

This review is from: ATVs: Everything You Need to Know (Everything You Need to Know) (Paperback)
The book was not written to review specific ATV models however it
will provide exelent information to the ones with a dilimma on which type of ATV to go for. A must read for beginners It also covers a big part regarding "safety" and "preservation of nature". It will give a good picture of the sport to the future atv rider. ps. To become good , at the end of the day you do need to get on the atv and ride....

This review is from: ATVs: Everything You Need to Know (Everything You Need to Know) (Paperback)
ATVs: Everything You Need to Know (Everything You Need to Know) by Steve Casper is a great all around book concerning ATVs. It has enough plain language explanations to help bring the novice to intermediate rider into the ATV world. The thing I liked most about the book though is it even has good material for those of us that have been riding for awhile. Your money will be well spent with this book if you are considering entering the ATV world.
