Simple Upgrades to Improve Your UTV’s Safety

If you’ve just recently purchased your first UTV, you may have mixed emotions about riding your new vehicle. While it’s exhilarating to speed through wooded areas and rough nature trails, it can also be a bit nerve-wracking. If you’re an inexperienced rider, it’s very easy to accidentally roll or crash your UTV, damaging your vehicle and risking your personal safety. To ensure you and your passengers are completely protected during an accident, we encourage you to check out the helpful UTV safety upgrades we’ve listed below.

Roll Cage

Roll cages are a safety accessory that is unique to UTVs, and come with a number of unique benefits! Not only will they keep you securely in your vehicle if your UTV were to roll or flip, but they also decrease the likelihood that your model will be seriously damaged. High-quality roll cages are well known for improving the overall durability of a UTV’s frame, and can even result in better stability and performance on a daily basis 

Seat Upgrades

While a roll cage will keep you within the confines of your vehicle during a crash, it won’t keep you from hurting yourself on various objects inside your UTV. To keep from breaking a leg or hurting your back, we strongly advise looking into seat upgrades for your model. These often come with either harnesses or seatbelts to keep you in place during a rollover, and may also include taller frames or head support to better protect your neck and head in an accident.
