Keep in mind; certain models are 2up. This means they can carry two people because they have seats rated for that. The 2up models will be heavier than their similar 1up counterparts.

Never exceed the rider capacity of your ATV.

Manufacturers

For more details about weight from each manufacturer, we’ve listed the link to each one.

Why Weight Matters

There are 3 reasons why the weight of your ATV matters.

  1. Hauling the ATV.
  2. Using the ATV to haul things.
  3. Performance.

Let’s go through each one.

Hauling The ATV

Every trailer has a weight capacity, and you must not go over that.

Also, loading the trailer and the weight at specific points on the trailer affects towing too. This video does a great job of demonstrating this.

The vehicle you tow the trailer will also have a tow weight capacity that you must not go over. It’s not always about taking off but stopping. It would be best if you had a truck with enough weight that it won’t get thrown around when towing and has the braking power to stop.

Make sure you never exceed the towing capacity of your truck or trailer.

Don’t forget the weight of your gear and accessories too!

Using The ATV To Haul Things

I’ve learned the hard way about towing heavy trailers with my ATV. Don’t do it, trust me!

If what you tow is too heavy, it lifts the front wheels and makes steering impossible. But more importantly, stopping is almost impossible too.

So don’t tow things over your towing capacity.

If you plan on using your machine for towing things, you’ll need to focus on buying heavier models. The heavier the ATV, the easier it is to control what you tow.

If you do a lot of towing, consider getting a side by side as they weigh a lot more and will do better at hauling.

Performance

The heavier the ATV, the harder the engine has to work.

This is why you see the performance racing model 450’s weigh so little compared to the utility ATVs.

If you like to go fast and play around, a lighter machine will be what you need.

If you like to get work done, then you want the heavier ones.
