I'm looking to purchase my first ATV for riding trails and having fun. I've never road an ATV however I'm a avoid motorcycle rider. I'm 6'3 and 243 lbs. What size ATV would be best for me?

id think, anything over 350 cc should get the job done. You looking at 4wd or sport? Think about taking the atv saftey training coarse...if you buy new, theyll send ya for free.

First question is are you looking for a UTE or Sport quad?

I would say get a 500cc or bigger just because of your size. Since you are a motorcycle rider I think you would probably perfer a SRA machine and would put you into a Suzuki Vinson or the bigger Twin Peaks/Praire.

Best thing to do though is visit the dealer and try them out. Good luck.
