Cover Your ATV or UTV

The All-Terrain Vehicle and Utility Vehicle that you just purchased shines brightly in the daylight sunshine. Only time will tell if the beautiful finish you now see will last. The best way to ensure that it keeps the 'like-new' look is to protect it with an All-Terrain Vehicle cover or Utility Vehicle cover.

Many companies sell covers that can help you keep the finish looking new. But which one do I get for my machine? You can purchase a high quality storage cover that can be folded up and placed in a bag to take with you.

Bird droppings are unpleasant and can actually damage the finish. Dust and debris can scratch the finish if you try to wipe it off. The sun can also damage the finish with its fading UV rays. So, having an All-Terrain Vehicle or Utility Vehicle cover on when not riding will help to maintain the great look of your machine.

The All-Terrain Vehicle cover should be constructed of a durable weather and water resistant polyester material. The cover should have a mildew resistant that protects against rain, snow, ice, dirt, dust and those harmful UV rays. The exterior of your cover should keep water away, while the interior is vented to allow the moisture to escape and keep your machine dry.

You should be able to tie down your Utility Vehicle cover and All-Terrain Vehicle cover while trailering it or just storing your machine. The cover will need a strong elastic hem cord around the bottom to help ensure a tight fit. Also include a built in trailering system with down straps with quick release buckles to keep your All-Terrain Vehicle or Utility Vehicle cover secure. Some added features should be air vents to help reduce inside moisture and wind lofting. A handy storage bag should be included.

There are different sizes of covers, so you will want to find one that fits your make and model of machine. If you purchase a cheap cover for your ride, it may not fit correctly and will last for only a season or two. However, if you put your money into a cover that fits right and is of good quality, then chances are good it will last a long time in protecting your All-Terrain Vehicle or Utility Vehicle.

An All-Terrain Vehicle or Utility Vehicle can be a costly recreational toy or working machine, so a rugged and durable cover is often a great investment for year round weather protection.
