Default Besides the atv what else will I need?

Hey guys, I'm always leaving something out and I know this will be no exception. Besides the ATV, helmet, and gloves what else will I need to purchase while I'm at the dealer for my first ride? Thanks

You can get head and eye gear cheaper (half the price)on e-bay.
Gloves at any store.
Around here ,the Dealer is always the MOST expensive.
What bike did you get?

Oil, filters, anything for mantinence so you dont have to go back. Oh yes besides the helmet you need the goggles to go with it. It sucks going up the road doing 50 or 60 mph and the bugs are hittn ya in the face. What bike are you getting?

I'm stuck between the 500 and the 600 sportsmans. Do you really need a license plate?

If your purchasing a utility machine like the 600 spotsman you might want to purchase some sort of storage box. Either a hard case or soft case they all work rather well. I prefer the hard case. These are great items to load gear into. I always carry some binocs, jackets, food repair kit, first aid etc...

Usually these attachments can be pernament/removable.

Idaho you need a registration sticker, I would definatley get the goggles, dust is a killer especially if you wear contacts. also if your buying new make sure you break it in properly. . Just my two cents
