ATVs For Sale in Modesto, CA

Buying An ATV

For a high-octane outdoor adventure, you can’t go wrong with an ATV. But that’s a hefty investment, so it’s important to get the right one. We here at Mitchell’s Modesto Harley-Davidson want to give you a leg up, so we’ve got some tips for narrowing down your options. If you need more help, or you’d like to see the ATVs we have for sale, contact our store in Modesto, California, today!

Features

The term “ATV” covers a fairly broad range of vehicles with different specialties, intended uses, and strengths and weaknesses, but all of these have a few basic features: 

• Straddle-style seating.

• Handlebar steering.

• Traction-focused design.

• Rugged suspension.

• Powerful yet compact engines.

On the other hand, most ATVs are built for a single rider. If you want to bring someone along, you’ll need what’s called a “two-up” ATV, which has a built-in passenger seat. Other unique features and options might include paint jobs, adjusted seating for riders who are below or above average height, and more. Think about specific needs you might have to start narrowing your search.

Uses

The big factor to consider is how your ATV will be used. Most ATVs are built for trail-riding, with the mild sandy, muddy, or rocky terrain that might contain. They can also be great compact workhorses for landscaping or farming. But if you have a specific use in mind, or know you’ll be primarily dealing with one specific type of terrain, try to find models designed specifically for that use and terrain. Even if you don’t find a specialized model, you might find specialized upgrades you’ll want.
