Do you ride with a passenger?
Hi I am just wondering how many of you ride with passengers? I know that all the atv's come with the no passenger decals but around here lots of people ride with there kids ect. The ralley photos I see often have pics of two people on one atv.Is the no passenger rule an insurance issue for the manufactures? Is it a law in some places? Is it frowned apon or the norm?? I ask because I have only had my trail boss for three months and my kids love to ride with me.Around here it is done alot, and I feel that it is safe as long as you drive accordingly...what are your thoughts???

90 percent or more of the people in here have drove with 2 people on at one time or another ,I myself take my daughter out all the time , use your head everyone knows there limitations if you are not sure of something do not attempt it with someone else on. I enjoy riding better by myself so as I can push the envelope ever once in awhile I can throw the ATV around alot better with just me. Once the daughter is on though I take things alot easier she likes to go fast but ya gotta pick the right places, I cannot wait for her to be able to shoffer dad around.....lol

No passengers here I personally wouldnt want to be responsible for anyones elses safety. How would you feel if the passenger got hurt because of a mistake you made? Its a chore just being responsible for yourself and the other riders around you plus the added weight would hurt your reaction time if a situation arose where you needed to make a sudden change I guess this reply would be for a genral riding area.
Now if you were on your own property or no one else was around and you were just putting around or teaching someone to ride it would be okay.

It's done alot down here too. Mostly with utility ATV's though. I bought my SP500HO in November. 3 days after I got it my wife took it muddin without me. So till I can get the money up to get one for her I take her with me when I go muddin. Jeez and she didn't even like it when I first got it. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

we all ride with passengers...hell i've gone on rallies with my girlfriend on the back of my Predator! Extra weight for extra traction in the snow! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
The thing about being responsible for somone else...do you let passengers in the car with you? Same thing..use your head and you'll be alright. No one does stupid things with a passenger or kids on the bikes..thats just stupid!

I feel the same. I enjoy spending time with my family and like that my kids enjoy atving with me. I feel that it is more safe then a street bike with a passenger, but yet the street bikes do not come with warning decals. Same for snomobiles. The wife story is neat...does she still ride with you?
