ATV powersports is becoming very popular as it is an all year sport for all ages and genders; so it follows that as the sport grows the vehicles are becoming easier to attain as the availability of pre-owned vehicles is also become wider. One of the more popular activities on the powersport scene is the ATV.

These vehicles are all terrain vehicles, which imply that they are designed for off road use. Usually made for a single rider and one passenger they come in a range of sizes and engines and there is a large range of models available and are predominately Japanese.

ATV powersport bikes are either four wheeled or six wheeled with engines ranging from 49cc to 950cc and their design makes them perfect for off roading in mud or sand dunes. When you become experienced in the world of power sports, you just have to strap on your helmet and get ready to perform racing and stunts like you have never experienced before on any other vehicle, and to help you make the most of the sport there are a host of clubs and associations that you can join which will allow you to learn how to ride in safety with other like minded riders.




There are many brands and types of ATV powersports vehicles for you to choose your vehicle from and internet is a wonderful source for you to refer to for ideas and suggestions for purchasing your dream bike. Although branded vehicles are usually more expensive than the off brand varieties, however if you can stretch your budget an investment in one of the recognized makes is preferable. You must also take into account your experience whilst looking to buy as the bigger ATV's are extremely powerful. So bare in mind the physical size of the machine as well as the engine power; in fact it is a good idea to go to a dealer and sit on the bike and try it for reach and handling.

The term Power sports encompasses a huge range of different types of vehicles and other than ATV's there are Snowmobiles, Dune Buggies, Karts and Dirt Bikes plus many more, and there loads of eBay sites selling them, however if you intend to buy your ATV through eBay, and it is a pre owned model, make sure you can ask the seller questions about the age and condition of the vehicle. Most people don't just rush into purchasing a brand new ATV; but that's not a major problem as there is an abundance of pre-owned machines on the market.

There are of course many websites that offer information and tips about the sale and purchase of ATV's and power sports vehicles. Use your instincts and try to go with a brand that you know of or know someone who owns one like it. In addition to this, buying your ATV from a reputed and trusted source ensures that you will receive after sales support from the dealer. Servicing is a major requirement of the manufacturers guarantee so make sure there are facilities locally to carry out this work.

The other thing to remember is to make sure you have enough money in your budget to buy the correct safety gear, such as a good helmet a pair of leathers and boots, and last but not least check out the insurance requirements as powersports can be dangerous if they are not approached with extreme caution. So there you have it; if you can tick all of these boxes your entry into ATV Powersports should be a safe and exhilarating one.

ATV Powersports - Buying The Right ATV

Once bitten, twice shy,this is something a friend of mine told me recently. He went ahead and bought some ATV apparel for his kids online from an online retailer of some of the most reputable brands in the market today. Well, to cut the long story short and without revealing the name of the website, he didn't get his order and customer service was unhelpful. Therefore, today, if you asked him to purchase ATV stuff or anything, in fact, online, he would rather you take his eye out.

There are some essential facts about purchasing ATV accessories and other stuff online to consider before you whip out your credit card.

First off, check the reputation of the ATV reseller. You can either type 'opinion ATV seller' or 'review *website name*' into your favorite search engine and go through what others have to say about the website. It's a bit suspect when website owners don't provide phone numbers in their sites and consumers should know the dangers of purchasing ATV stuff from a website that does not provide a human contact. If they have a phone number displayed in their website, call the number for a quick check. If you don't know what to ask, ask them a simple question like, "Where are you located?" or "Out of curiosity, what's the shipping price for International purchases?" even though you're not located outside of the country!

Another thing consumers should be particular about when it comes to purchasing ATV stuff online is, variety and choices. For instance, I would rather purchase from a website that has a huge variety of designs, colors and prints for me to choose from, instead of a one-color thing or one-size warehouse clearance thing. It doesn't give you a lot of room to move, does it?

Purchasing ATV helmets for kids can be a little tricky. There's the size issue that you should tackle first. Take a measuring tape and measure round the widest part of your kid's head....that's the head circumference. Check the size against the size provided in the website. If they don't provide information on sizing, DON'T purchase because it would be really troublesome for you later on.

One final thing about purchasing ATV stuff online, always read the fine prints about return policy, shipping and of course, the guarantee/warranty.

Guideline To Safe Purchasing of ATV Stuff Online

The all-new M6 features weight-saving technologies such as a carbon-fiber roof and 19-inch forged aluminum wheels that are almost four pounds lighter than regular cast wheels. With almost 500 horsepower available, BMW claims the M6 will hit 60 mph in under 4.6 seconds, and it will run to 20 5mph without the traditional 155-mph speed limiter. The suspension, though similar to that of the M5, is specially tuned to take advantage of the M6's shorter wheelbase and lower center of gravity. Massive cross-drilled brakes enable the M6 to pull up from 60 mph in less than 118 feet.

It is the most powerful 6 Series yet to be produced as it shares its power unit with the recently released M5. Acceleration is from 0-100 km/h comes in 4.6 seconds and the M6 reaches 200 km/h about 14 seconds. Top speed is limited to 250 km/h. It has a 5-litre V10 engine with a power output of 373 kW at 7 750 r/min, while torque is 520 Nm at 6 100 r/min. In city driving where not much power is needed, the BMW M6 automatically sets off in its comfort-oriented P400 performance program with 296 kW (400 bhp) engine output. The V10 power unit requires roughly twice as much cooling air as the V8 in the BMW 645Ci. The V10 is indeed the most demanding engine in technical terms. BMW’s high-speed engine concept allows an optimum gearbox and final drive transmission ratio. The two five-cylinder banks in the V10 are arranged at an angle of 90° in order to optimize the standard of vibration control and motoring comfort offered by full mass compensation on the crank drive. Taking the substantial forces of the combustion process, high engine speeds and vibrations into account, the crankcase comes in bedplate design. The extremely stiff crankshaft, in turn, runs in six bearings.




The engine control unit is ionic current technology serving to detect any tendency of the engine to knock, misfire and suffer mis-combustion. BMW’s seven-speed SMG transmission is precisely the right manual gearbox for conveying the power of the V10 via the drivetrain to the rear wheels. This gearbox from BMW M is indeed the world’s only sequential transmission with seven gears and Drivelogic. With qualities even greater than on a six-speed SMG gearbox, this transmission allows manual selection of gears with extremely short gearshift times as well as comfortable cruising qualities thanks to the automatic gear selection function.

The M6’s engine electronics is one of the most advanced engine control systems ever developed. The MS S65 control unit coordinates all engine functions using three 32-bit processors that handle more than 200 million operations per second from over 50 incoming signals. Each of the 10 cylinders has its own throttle butterfly, with its position being monitored 200 times per second.

The variable, speed-sensing M Differential Lock gives the M6 superior driving stability and optimum traction particularly when accelerating out of a bend. The 19-inch forged aluminum wheels developed especially for the M6, together with their five filigree double spokes, are extremely light and provide a very good view of the large brake discs.

The new BMW M6 uses a hybrid construction of aluminum, thermoplastics and SMC (Sheet Moulding Compound). This mixture of materials delivers an extremely rigid, yet light, body structure.
