I recently got a atc 125m from an uncle to give to my son. I have never ridden a all terrain vehicle before and neither has he so I'm very concerned that this might be to much of a machine for the both of us.
I really wanted to ride it but my home owners association forbids off road vehicles and I like to obey the rules and respect my neighbors.
I don't own a truck so I bought a trailer hitch for the bike rack on my Toyota Camry and rented a small trailer from U-Haul. I followed all instructions for towing per my owners manual and never exceeded the 45 mph trailer warning. I was nervous at first but I made it to my friends house where I can ride on his property.
This is where the real nerves kicked in. This thing is a rocket ship and probably to fast for my son. It took a little bit to get used to but was fun. I don't know hw many gears it has though but 2nd was fast enough.
I can't wait to get some more seat time but need to make sure I'm not exceeding the manufacturers maximum towing weight on my Camry. My wife would not be pleased it I broke the car. Even though it has a warranty I couldn't expect the dealer to fix it if I disobeyed their recommendation.
