Hey guys I appreciate your responses but its a trials atv, kinda of like a trials motorcycle, not an atv trail. On the trail note, here in colorado we have alot of wooded areas but we have little to no areas that atv riders can atempt some of these time trials events. I haven't been to the carolinas in a long time but if atv riders had an area that they could atempt some of these difficult and precise manuevers would be outstanding. Part of my presentation is going to be the integration of the everyday rider and the trials riders with perfect balance. I am going to do this by providing a machine that can perform on a similar level as the trials motorcycle, but remove the difficulty of maintaining absolute and complete balance. Obviously everyone wishes they had the balance and equalibrium of these trials riders but physically most people can't do it. Thats why a vehicle with some of these capabilities has a niche in the market place.

      What's the best kids atv out there? I've seen everything from the ones released by the major manufacturers to all those knock offs. Kawasaki has a KFX 50 that is pretty nice for under $1800...

      Anyone purchase or check out Rockymtnatv lately? Well I was just browsing over there and they have a pretty cool section called Ten Dollars Or Less. Some interesting things to check out if you are in the market.

      I plan on using my ATV to hunt. What have you found to be the best method for carrying your rifle that is secure and allows removing quickly to pursue an animal?

      Hi everyone. 
      Let me explain the thread title. 
      My husband and I are very active in the nudist community, and we have stayed at many and most of the mainstream nudist and clothing optional campgrounds in the USA. We are now approaching our retirement and would like to start a podcast to share those off the road / backwoods / little known camping areas where nudity is allowed. We have purchased a 5th wheel camping trailer with a rear garage for the ATV and now need some good reports on the one to buy. 
      We are most interested in a side by side unit but would love to get your thoughts. 
      Feel free to stop by and say Hi and ask anything you would like to better understand what we are looking for in an offroad unit. 
      Thanks for reading and hope to hear from you.
