__ RAPTOR 350 __  What you need to do before you go to the mountains ? First you need to check the gas, oil, and the air pressure of the tires of the atv. You also need to carry a rope, tools, an inflator and a patch under your seat. The driver needs to wear boots, a helmet and gloves.  Why is the Raptor 350 better than other atv’s? This ATV is better than the others because it is faster, and it has good suspension and traction for travelling across the mountains even though it has no 4x4 power. Besides, this ATV has only one cylinder and that makes it more economic than the others. Another good feature of this atv is that it is possible to change shift to reverse from any gear. What is the advantage of having a manually operated ATV instead of an automatic one? The 1st gear is more powerful than the 1st gear in the automatic. This is especially useful if the atv doesn’t have 4x4 power. If automatic ATV runs out of power it cannot be started. However, a manually operated ATV can be started by giving it a push on 2nd gear. What is a good place in which to learn how to ride an ATV? You need a place with a lot of space, especially when you are learning how to use the clutch. It is difficult to manipulate the clutch in 1st gear. Your atv might jerk and stop if you don’t release the clutch properly. It is also important to learn how to use the clutch when shifting gears, and for that you need to travel a distance; that’s why you need so much space. HOW do you ride a manually operated ATV? To start the ATV you have to make sure the vehicle is in neutral. For the ATV to start moving, you need to press the clutch and set the 1st gear. Then release the clutch slowly as you accelerate. Then when you are ready to change gears, you need to let the gas go, press the clutch, change to 2nd gear, and release the clutch as you accelerate. Follow the same process when shifting to other gears.   <span style="color: #17365d; font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-themecolor: text2; mso-themeshade: 191;"> <span style="color: #17365d; font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-themecolor: text2; mso-themeshade: 191;">HOW TO JUMP <span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Almost everybody thinks that jumping with an ATV is really easy but is kind of difficult because you need to land with your four wheels. And that’s the difficult part to because everybody goes straight ahead with the same speed but you are going to land with your front wheels. So at the end you accelerate more. If you do this you will land more gently. <span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"> <span style="color: #17365d; font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-themecolor: text2; mso-themeshade: 191;">HOW TO DO THE WHEELIE <span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The wheelie is very scary and difficult. But once you get it you need to practice a lot until you are no scared any more. To start the wheelie you need to go to a surface that does not slip so that the wheels have more traction and that you can go up. So to start you need press the clutch and accelerate one quarter of the full gas. Then you just let go the clutch and you will do the wheelie but you need to press the brake a little bit so that you don’t fall down. <span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"> <span style="color: #17365d; font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-themecolor: text2; mso-themeshade: 191;"> <span style="color: #17365d; font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-themecolor: text2; mso-themeshade: 191;"> <span style="color: #17365d; font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-themecolor: text2; mso-themeshade: 191;"> <span style="color: #17365d; font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-themecolor: text2; mso-themeshade: 191;"> <span style="color: #17365d; font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-themecolor: text2; mso-themeshade: 191;"> <span style="color: #17365d; font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-themecolor: text2; mso-themeshade: 191;">HOW EXPENSIVE ARE THE ATVs. <span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"> The ATVs are very expensive but that also depends on the brand.
