Road Buggy


Road Buggy

ATV, the recognized abbreviation for "all-terrain vehicle", includes any types of small, open, motorized tricycle/buggy primarily designed for off-road riding and carrying just one person - the driver. Riding an ATV has been likened to riding an ordinary motorcycle, with the exception that they have extra wheels to provide the rider with extra stability at slower speeds.

A Brief History Of ATVs

Although the exact date is not known, the first ever ATV, designed with six wheels, was introduced to the public somewhere around the 1950s. However, this was improved by Honda producing the first ever three-wheel all-terrain vehicle, made famous when it was featured in the 1971 James Bond Movie - "Diamonds Are Forever".

Quickly following the release of three-wheel ATVs, various other configurations were designed for recreational use. These improved models offered big balloon tires, but no mechanical suspension. It wasn't until the early 1980s that ATVs with lower tires and suspension were introduced.

Different Models For Different Roles

The ATV quickly became a favorite mode of travel for US and Canadian hunters. This popularity was largely due to its ability to travel on terrain which other kinds of vehicles could not even consider crossing.

Aside from their recreational use, the release of the Honda ATC250R in 1981 led to sports models of ATV becoming even more popular. This model incorporated an impressive engine placement, full suspension, 5-speed transmission and stunning design. Truly a fun vehicle rather than a purposeful one.

Suzuki is renowned for developing the four-wheel models of high-performance all-terrain vehicles. Since Suzuki introduced the very first ATV for beginners in 1983, it has continuously produced a variety of 4-wheel ATVs for both beginners and experienced riders alike. Other leaders in ATV production include Yamaha and Kawasaki.

During the 1980s, a variety of safety issues were raised regarding the three-wheel all-terrain vehicles. Because of this, all ATV manufacturers discontinued the production of three-wheel and switched to four-wheel models. Six-wheel models are also available, but these all-terrain vehicles contain a small dump bed and an additional set of wheels that effectively increases load capacity.

ATVs Brought Up-To-Date

Today, you can ATV models designed for both the utility and the sport markets. Utility ATV models are bigger, 4-wheeled vehicles, but still capable of speeds of up to 65 miles per hour. They can be used for towing small trailers or dragging small loads on racks or dump beds, and are totally practical vehicles.

On the other hand, sports ATVs are designed with 2-wheel drive, manual transmission and a lighter, smaller design. These can run at up to 90 miles per hour.

It is no small wonder that many people the world over are participating in ATV riding. It allows adults to enjoy themselves immensely and ride through the race utilising an impressive vehicle performance and a unique design in a racing model.
