They have a higher sales rate than th U.S. has a divorce rate.
Also ATV seals increased when ATC where banned. No more new ATC to compete with.I also said early 1990's not mid to wanna late Eighties. Correct me if I wrong but ATC were banned in 1985 or 1986 for new sales in the US. | no your right the atc's were banned in the mid 80's....i was just saying that the trike also had a toll in lowering the overall intrest and sales juring those times... too many people got killed on those things cuz there nuts.... .. |

Almost ruined it for the rest of us ATVers. Like Honda says" Stupid Hurts". That is pretty much an understatement.
The downfall of ATCs did help the sale of atvs. Ten yours of little or no changes didn't help either.
But look at the selection we have now. I don't care who you are, there is a selection of atvers.Still miss 3 wheelers. Yamaha, Honda, and Kawasaki had some awsome 2 stroke 3 wheelers. Plus 300 LBS and under weight was nice to.
