Should You Repair an Old ATV or Buy a New One?

You’ve been riding the same ATV for quite awhile. You and your ride have made enough memories together to become fairly attached.

But ATVs have come a long way since you made all those memories, and your beloved little engine doesn’t have any of the bells and whistles that today’s ATVs have.

So do you ditch the old ATV and buy a new one? Or do you repair and replace parts on the one you already have? Either way, you have a lot of options.

Let’s start with the bells and whistles you can add.

Extras for off-road drives

• Cargo beds
  No need to pack lightly. With a cargo bed on your ATV, you can haul anything from camping equipment to fishing and hunting supplies. You’ll have plenty of space for all of it.
• Mud guards
  If your drive takes you anywhere other than a paved road, then chances are it could also be a muddy one. Mud guards keep the mud from flying off your tires as you drive. Get them for your front tires, rear tires or both!
• Off-road tires
  These are a must for adventure enthusiasts. With off-road tires, you can count on making it down that steep embankment and up the other side without a problem!
• LED lights
  When the sun goes down, country terrain offers less than ideal visibility. LED lights brighten it up, and they’re also more energy efficient for your ATV.

Customization for neighborhood cruises

• Top and windshield
  Make it a comfortable, breeze-free ride for you and your passengers when you add a windshield and a top to your ATV. With these features, a little wind or rain won’t stop you from taking your ATV where you need to go.
• Rear flip seat kit
  The more, the merrier, they say. With a flip seat in your ATV, you can take even more riders with you to the pool, another yard sale or your friend’s house.
• Heating and cooling
  Don’t just drive your ATV when the weather is an ideal sunny and 75. Install heating and cooling so you can take advantage of your ATV during the cold months and the hot ones.

Add-ons for Sunny, sandy rides 

• Cooler
  You can’t be on the beach or the dunes without a cooler packed with refreshing drinks. If you pack a cooler every time you go, why not have one that’s built into your ATV?

• Off-road tires
  If you’re driving in sand, then obviously, you need these. 
• Heavy duty leaf springs
  Are you toting a load of umbrellas, lawn chairs and a grill behind your ATV? Heavy duty leaf springs provide extra stability for the extra weight.

Maybe your beloved ATV is in need of too many repairs and additions to make the process worth it. If that’s the case, consider one of our Bad Boys or Cushmans. They come in a variety of colors, shapes and sizes that suit just about any taste.

We won’t lie, we’re pretty biased towards the Bad Boy Off Road Stampede 900. In fact, we’ve written a blog all about how much we love it!
