The Felske Family was, and still are, very avid outdoors riding enthusiasts. In the early 1990s, they rode three months of the year sledding and wanted to continue riding throughout the rest of the year. They bought three off road motorcycles everyone took turns riding, Mel and the girls had no problems, but Bev seemed to have no coordination and kept falling off the machine or driving into the bushes with it. The last trip, Bev walked the machine home half a mile, kicked it and proceeded to say “I need something with four wheels.

Mel made the mistake of saying “no way they’re two expensive”,The next weekend, Bev had a new Yamaha ATV to go riding with the family. The following year, Mel bought a new Suzuki ATV.

It was at that time that we looked around for an ATV club to ride with. After all, we had been members of the sledding club for years and shared all the events and social gathering with our friends and neighbors. None were organized at that time.

In 1998 Bev asked BCCOM—the Provincial motorcycle group who had an off road rep—to develop an ATV division. After waiting for two years with nothing happening, Bev went off on her own. At that time she was serving on the Provincial body of BCSF and asked that group at a Board of Directors meeting in Winfield if they would consider starting an ATV division as part of the BCSF.

NO WAY was the reply. That Board of Directors would not even consider an ATV division within the BCSF. They did however lend me $600.00 to start a separate Provincial body for ATVers. This was repaid within three months.

Thus ATV/BC was born in 2000. Bev used her snowmobile connections by asking Bob Orr, President of Prince George Snowmobile Club, Ron Leroy, President of Revelstoke Snowmobile Club, and Norm Boulanger, President of Quad Squad Club to help her start an ATV Provincial Body. At the time only Quad Squad founded by Norm Boulanger was an ATV club. Bob and Ron started ATV clubs soon after.

The only way to start a Provincial body was to have a meeting. Now we all know that no one will drive hundreds of miles just to go to a meeting so, after consulting with the guys, Bev decided to have a Jamboree with rides for people to participate in and to have a Meeting to explain what we were about and what we hoped to do. Funded by the Felske Family, the first Jamboree was held in August 2000 with 50 people attending the Green Lake site. The jamboree was run by a committee of 8 people! This Jamboree had two rides, a wine & cheese party and a meeting. Bev made the posters, registration forms and sent it out to anyone and everyone she could think of to ask people to attend. No one at the time had any idea of what was the main purpose, they just came to ride.

The main purpose of starting a Provincial organization was to protect our right to ride as environmentalists were having many areas closed down and no one was looking after or protecting the interests of ATVers.

At that time only one of seven invited manufacturers, a Honda representative, came to the meeting and he sat in the back of the room listening to our purpose. Only then did he come forward and gave us Honda’s support for our organization. The other six manufacturers took a wait and see if this group is for real approach, as they had been approached by other people wanting to start a Provincial body and it never came to fruition.

Are you into ATVs and you want to own one yet the price for one top of the line ATV will leave a big hole in your wallet? Not many people can afford to buy a Honda or a Yamaha ATV. So, what do you do if you desperately want to own your own ATV? Many people who are looking for an affordable ATV would not mind buying a Chinese ATV, even though there may not be many models available in the market.

It is without doubt that if you intend to purchase a Chinese ATV (or any other brands of ATVs, for that matter), you will need to do some “homework” first. Research is the key word to finding the most suitable and reliable Chinese ATV dealer. While most Chinese ATV dealers are able to offer their ATVs at great bargains, it is a fact that some dealers may not have enough support from their manufacturers to provide you with after sales service. Hence, it is important that you check with the dealer if they are able to provide you with reliable after sales service. It is quite frustrating to own an ATV and not be able to ride it because some parts are no longer available.

Chinese ATVs are usually a lot cheaper compared to the branded ones and even though there may not be as many models that you may be able to find, but they do make a good bargain for people with smaller budgets. While you are hunting for Chinese ATVs dealers, be sure to find out from them if they have the parts available at all time – that is, if they have the parts in stock. Some dealers will claim that they have the parts but in actual fact they do not keep stock of the parts and will only place an order with the manufacturer whenever the need arises.

While ATV riding is an extremely fun and exhilarating past time and sport, it can be dangerous for youths too. Therefore, it’s not surprising that youths may need more ATV parts replacements than adults. Technically, they are just not as careful as adults and therefore, there are more small mistakes that could prove to be costly. To ensure that you don’t end up changing ATV parts for youth every other week, you can either send them for ATV riding training or you could actually teach them how to take care of their ATVs properly. Knowing how to care for and use their ATVs properly is the first step you should take to save on Youth ATV parts.

If you think youth ATV parts are less expensive that the adult version, you’re wrong. You see, one of the things with youth ATV parts is that they are specialty items which make them all the rarer. And as you know, the harder the youth ATV part is to find, the more expensive they can be.

ATV parts manufacturers offer training for youths If you’ve just bought your children a new ATV, check if the manufacturer or the TV offer training for youths. These ATV part manufactures are actually giving the training for youths for free. ATV parts manufacturers, like Arctic Cat, Bombardier, Honda, John Deere, Kawasaki.etc recognize the need to train youths on how to properly ride and take care of their ATV. They also know that it could be frustrating for the parents to have to constantly look for and purchase replacement ATV parts.

So, if you’ve just gotten your youth a new machine, ask to see if the ATV parts manufacturer actually offers training for youths.

How do I know which Youth ATV parts manufacturer is reliable?

The general rule of thumb is that you ought to keep to well-known brands when it comes to youth ATV parts. The more well-known and established the brand is, the higher the possibility that their products are reliable. Youth ATV parts in the market are priced somewhat the same with very little difference between the good ones and the mediocre ones. Cheap youth ATV parts are easy to find too and even though the price is good, they are not as reliable as the more established brands. For one thing, they don’t offer customer support or adequate protection against defects in the product or malfunctioning of the Youth ATV parts that they sell.

With so many ATVs out there designed for different purposes deciding which one is right for you can be tough. This guide will help you determine what type of ATV will be most suitable. It then goes on to explore what to look for in a used ATV to help you make the right buying decision.

It never ceases to surprise me how many ATV owners do little research before visiting a dealer or buying an ATV for sale online. Are they mad? A little research will ensure you don’t make the same mistake and enable you to get the machine that best fits your needs, abilities and budget. The more research undertaken the happier you will be with your purchase. More times than I care to remmember I have made a purchase only to find a couple of weeks later a product that would have suited my needs much better. You simply can’t afford to let that happen with an expensive product like an ATV or Four Wheeler.

The first thing to consider is your budget. How much can you afford to spend on your ATV? If you haven’t previously owned one don’t forget to make an allowance for the ancillary equipment that you’ll need e.g. helmet, boots and gloves etc and a proper training course. Your budget will determine whether you should buy new or used although my preference would always be a used ATV as there are plenty of great deals available ATVs available and you don’t take such a hit on vehicle depreciation.
The next most important consideration is the intended use of the ATV. You are unlikely to want a 4 stroke 4×4 if you are looking for a machine that is suitable for racing. Likewise you won’t want a 2 stroke lightweight racing machine for towing things around the farm. This might sound obvious and it is obvious but I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve seen machines bought that did not meet the owners requirements (especially online purchases).

There is also a need to take account of your local riding conditions. Where do you intend to ride your ATV? If you don’t know check out the local trails and see what sort of machines your fellow riders are using. Get their opinions. An interesting all round machine that suits quite a few different environments is the Polaris 400 4×4 which has a 2 stroke engine (very unusual in a 4×4). A great all round ATV for most trail blazers. It’s biggest limitation is push and pull where a 4 stroke engine definitely has an edge due to it’s greater torque What riding experience do you have? Make sure that the machine you buy matches your experience. If you’ve never ridden an ATV before please book yourself on a proper and extensive training course. It’s a great investment and will help you get the most from yourself and your machine. As I have expressed a preference for used ATV I thought it would be helpful to put together a check list of things to look out for and check with the owner before you buy.Start by checking there is a full service history. Don’t even go near a machine without a service history - you’ve been warned.
