How To Become An ATV Dealer

Becoming an ATV Dealer and starting an off road operation takes a few steps but is really easy. Did anyone think years ago the general public would have more access to obtaining the ability to sell ATVs? Usually, obtaining an ATV dealership from Honda or one of the name brands required hundreds of thousands of dollars in startup not to mention a hefty franchise fee. Those days are now over with the introduction of the more reasonably priced units.

Getting in the business of selling four wheelers and other off road products does require a few things. First, you really need a store front or business to operate from. Often times we call this a “marriage business” What this means is getting an ATV dealership is a secondary business that will drive sales for your current business. Someone may own a boat or RV dealership needing to drive retail traffic to the store or create an additional income stream in the winter when boats are not selling. Even a full service mechanic shop/ gas station in a rural area can be a great ATV dealership.

Understanding your ATV Battery

One of the most hard to understand part of your ATV is probably the battery. Some batteries lasts longer than others and some just ‘dies’ as and when it likes (which can be a nuisance). However, if you buy a branded battery with good warranty period, you should face none of these problems. Maintenance and knowledge is very important in maximizing the lifespan of the ATV battery.

Why does an ATV battery just die and then come back to life?

Yamaha Banshee ATV – The 350cc Liquid Cooled Legend

The Yamaha Banshee is a legendary 350cc liquid cooled two stroke ATV four wheeler. Yamaha produced these in the USA from 1987 – 2006, and they are still making them in the rest of the world. This was one of the fastest ATVs ever produced, and reigned supreme until the YFZ450 was created to replace it in 2004.

The engine was basically the exact same from 1987 until 2006, as well as most major components, except the changed the frame suspension from j-arms to a-arms in 1990. The rear wheel hubs had the same bolt pattern 4/115mm bolt pattern all years, except 1989 and 1990, when they changed it to 4/156mm; because of this Warrior, Raptor, and YFZ450 rims and wheels will also fit a Banshee. The electrical was updated as well in 2002 to include a brake light. Most parts will fit any year and are interchangeable including: the plastic fenders, rear brakes, seat, radiator, front and rear shocks, axle, hubs, lower a-arms, gas tank, cylinders, head, cases, crankshaft, carbs, petcock, tires, skid plate, coil, flywheel, transmission, shift forks, air box, air filter, handlebars, shifter, levers, swing arm, tie rods, impeller, pipe hangers, steering stem, bumper, grab bar, sprocket, rotors, reeds, head, side covers, kick starter, clutch, intake boots, and even the exhaust.

Kazuma ATV

Kazuma has come a long way since its humble beginnings. The company produces mostly four and two wheel drives and their focus is on ATVs, dirt bikes, snow mobiles, F1 racing karts, scooters and garden tractors. Are they wise in limiting their focus? We would like to think it’s a smart move on Kazuma’s part to focus on certain products instead of producing many different ones. And their intelligence and experience shows because Kazuma ATVs are leading the pack of other ATV manufacturers by a mile…and more!

This once-very-small China-based company produces many different types, models and makes of ATVs basically for the US and Europe market. another smart move because the ATV craze is still in infantile stage in many Asian markets. Generally speaking, Kazuma ATVs are always a quick sell because the team of technicians and designers always manage to come up with very fresh designs and intelligent machines. Kazuma ATVs are truly a class above the rest…or maybe even a class on its own. Kazuma ATVs are very suitable for people planning to tackle the Australian outback, by the way.
