Taking Care of the Unexpected
237
If You Crash
Personal safety is your first priority after a crash. If you or anyone else
has been injured, take time to assess the severity of the injuries and
whether it is safe to continue riding. If you cannot ride safely, send
someone for help. Do not ride if you will risk further injury.
If you decide you are capable of riding safely, carefully inspect your
ATV for damage and determine if it is safe to ride. Check the
tightness of critical nuts and bolts securing such parts as the
handlebar, control levers, brakes, and wheels.
If there is minor damage, or you are unsure about possible damage
but decide to try riding the ATV back to your base, ride slowly and
cautiously.
Sometimes, crash damage is hidden or not immediately apparent.
When you get home, thoroughly check your ATV and correct any
problems you find. Also, be sure to have your dealer check the frame
and suspension after any serious crash.
