    Top 10 Reasons To Buy An Atv Instead Of A Dirtbike

    " TOP 10 REASONS TO BUY AN ATV INSTEAD OF A DIRTBIKE:
    (Relax, dirtbike guys, this is just for fun...)

    #1: There are more trails open to ATVs. (Dirtbikes are often banned due to the damage the tires do to any trail.)

    #2: ATV's are better in snow and mud.

    #3: There's nothing like power-sliding around a corner on an ATV. Do this on a dirtbike and you'll end-up on your head.

    #4: Statistically, ATVs are safer. (If you wear a helmet and get an ATV that's the right size for you.)

    #5: Competition in the ATV world is still very open. There's lots of room to make your mark. (Everybody and his cousin is racing dirtbikes...)

    #6: It's easier to transport and carry 'stuff' on an ATV.

    #7: When you're parked, your girlfriend can sit on the seat with you, and it won't tip over like a dirtbike would.

    #8: ATV's can have a safety flag on them for visibility on the dunes and trails. Put a flag on a dirtbike, and you'll look like a dork.

    #9: ATV racing coverage and popularity will be exploding in 2004 and 2005 (due to the new participation by the major manufacturers).

    #10: ATV guys get all the (best) ladies...

    If you have a dirtbike and no an ATV, that's cool too. At least you can still go out and ride with me. i'll just have to stop once in a while and wait for you to catch up... " pro-staff

            I dont ride them but i was told that if u wreck an ATV it will roll and roll, possibly over you. But if u wreck a dirtbike itll just lay over. At least thats what my neighbor, the dirtbike fanatic, says.

                  ATV's are awesome!! I've ridden a few times on some tough trails and I do like the way they handle. Anyone have any recommendations? There are so many types and brands that I don't even know where to start. The girl in me makes me just want to look for the coolest looking one. What about buying used vs. buying new? Anyone have any good sites to go to or suggestions?

                      I will always choose quads over dirt bikes. They are much more fun imo and i have yet to find a dirtbike that could beat me on any of my quads that ive owned.

                      Trina - it kinda depends on what your looking for, your skill level, and how tall/big you are. lmk if ya need any help and ill be sure to try my best to answer your questions.
