Don't Fear Winter

Published in the September 2013 Issue September 2013 Powersport News

Accessories to help you enjoy the frosty season

We get it. Winter can be harsh, unforgiving and not exactly the most fun time of the year to ride your side-by-side or ATV. Most folks store their summer toys when the temps drop and the snow falls. Or at the very least, they turn their summer ride into a winter workhorse.

There are plenty of accessories out there that will allow you to extend your riding season, even if it’s just plowing the driveway or clearing the walks. For some who are finding out how versatile track systems are, there’s a whole new world of riding available when you mount one of those systems on your vehicle.

That’s why we say,“Don’t Fear Winter.”Embrace it. Accessorize your ride and ride some more.

Here’s how.
