90,000 as an ATV will help in the farm-work with a snowmobile and other tasks
on the quadnce, you can transport goods, can be transported by the goods mow grass, remove snow or debris, and work the soil and perform many other tasks. Sometimes even a tractor cannot replace such equipment - for example, if you have to work in a limited space. We will tell you in more detail how you can use an ATV on the farm and how to choose the right equipment that will cope with hard work in the article.
Small dimensions . The width of ATVs is usually less than 130 cm, and the length is up to 250 cm. Due to the compactness, you can comfortably work in confined spaces, as well as choose fast paths that are inaccessible to large vehicles.
Another advantage of the small dimensions is that you need a minimum of space to store the ATV.
Low fuel consumption . The average 500 cc ATV consumes 11-15 liters per 100 km - when driving on country roads and light off-road.
Can be used for entertainment . On an ATV, you can go off-road or go on a picnic with your family.
A four-wheel drive ATV with a reduction gear is needed for chores. It is better to choose with an engine capacity of more than 400 cm³. It is desirable to have a power steering - it will allow you to get less tired from driving.
Globally, all ATVs are divided into 2 types.
ATV - with motorcycle controls and landing, as well as SSV - with automotive. Let's analyze what their features are:
ATV
More affordable than SSV;
More manoeuvrable;
Less weight has a positive effect on flotation.
SSV
Comfortable;
Rollover protection with frame and seat belts;
Roof, doors and windshield prevent rain and dirt from entering the cabin, allow you to work in all weather conditions;
Load capacity and pulling capacity higher than ATV.
ATV
SSV
Transporting goods . ATV trunks can usually load 60-100 kg, and utility SSVs in the back can carry up to 350-450 kg. If this is not enough, you can use a trailer.
Tillage . For ATVs there are plows, cultivators and harrows.
Cleaning .
With the help of the blade, you can rake snow and large debris. For cleaning small debris such as leaves or sawdust, there are special brushes.
Grass cutting . ATV mowers allow you to mow grass, weeds, shrubs and small trees with a trunk thickness of up to 2-5 cm - depending on the model.
Loading . The bucket can load firewood, sand, soil or snow.
Spreading . The spreader allows you to distribute seeds as well as fertilizer or sand.
In addition to the above works, the ATV is perfect for hunting or fishing trips.
CFMOTO CFORCE 500 HO .
ATV with a 500 cc injection engine with 38 hp. It has a transmission with a plug-in all-wheel drive, a "lower" and a differential lock. On luggage platforms it can carry up to 60 kg in total. There is no winch in the basic configuration. Electric booster too. Independent front and rear suspensions have 160mm and 200mm of travel respectively. Clearance - 270 mm. Tires are 26 inches.
CFMOTO CFORCE 1000 EPS . Due to the "liter" engine with a capacity of 75 hp. this ATV is great for hard work. Like the previous version, it is equipped with an all-wheel drive transmission with a reduction gear and a forced locking of the front differential. On trunks in total it is capable to carry up to 60 kg. In the basic configuration there is a winch and electric power steering. Both suspensions are independent: the front has a travel of 205 mm, the rear - 195 mm. Clearance - 285 mm. Tires are 27 inches.
CFMOTO UFORCE 1000 EPS . SSV with a "liter" 72-horsepower engine and all-wheel drive transmission with forced differential lock and "lower".
Particularly interesting for the economy due to the dump body with a load capacity of 350 kg. The interior of the model is three-seater, the seats are adjustable and heated. The roof, doors and windshield with wiper are included as standard and allow you to work in different weather conditions. Also standard equipment includes a winch and electric power steering. Suspension independent: front stroke - 180 mm, rear - 190 mm. Clearance - 265 mm. Tires are 27 inches.
For farming, we recommend an all-wheel drive ATV with an engine capacity of more than 500 cm³. Utility ATVs are primarily distinguished by a more affordable price and compactness, while SSVs are distinguished by comfort and a large carrying capacity.

ATV trailer
Hello everyone! Dear extreme lovers! Those who have ATVs will probably agree with me that this is a beast of a car, and if there is also a trailer with it, in general, you can do a lot of useful things.
And they can perform quite a lot of functions: plow your garden with a plow, transport, carry, clean snow with a special blade, or, in another way, with a snow shovel. In this case, we will focus on transportation. For example, use a trailer for an ATV in chores, in transporting things.
If you are interested in a trailer, I think it will be useful to read the following, useful in the future:
Quite a lot can be done on the grills or the trunk of the quad itself, but during operation, many people understand the lack of space on the trunk and hard and soft trunks and purchase a trailer designed directly for the quad bike for their use . Trailers are most in demand in villages, but in dachas. Where to bring land, where boards, a puddle can be sprinkled with sand, fishermen and hunters can load a boat, tackle, and a motor.
A very necessary thing in the household.
Low Cost ATV Trailer
It remains to decide which trailer to choose. The price varies from 1500 to 2000 dollars. For fancy ones even more (up to 4000). Decide what you need trailer for transportation of people or all sorts of things? From here and dance already. Here is a fairly budget option
car trailer
It is also possible to consider the option of buying a car trailer from your hands, but it probably won’t be suitable for an ATV, it will be hard for quads with a small cubic capacity. It will come out quite inexpensively, and there is a lot of choice in the ads. But there is one BUT ... will it be convenient to transport it in the forest? after all, the trailer is much wider than the square. Movement between the trees will be difficult, which is important and often found on fishing and hunting, it will also probably become heavy. In this case, all-terrain qualities disappear completely.
A car trolley is probably still an unsuitable option.
trailer from motoblock
Using a trailer from a walk-behind tractor is generally squalor. The only plus is its width, even narrower than an ATV. Otherwise, there are only minuses: the suspension is unreliable, you can’t load a lot, the wheels are too small, you can’t go far on such off-roads, the size of the body is like a basin))). And you can’t develop speed with such a trailer, the wheels will probably fall off)). Instead of this trailer, it’s probably easier to buy ordinary bags for an ATV
The only inexpensive solution remains:
DIY ATV trailer
The only option, in my opinion, the cheapest and most reliable is to make a trailer for an ATV with your own hands, unless of course you want to lay out big money for other people's uncles.
Parts of a home-made trailer are best purchased separately, and not taken in pieces from old trailers, so as not to digest or cut anything.
So let's start with the axis. Probably the most important part in the trailer. We buy an axle in a store, they are sold assembled, or from disassembly, preferably already with suspension and maintenance-free hubs of the most common and inexpensive wheels, for example, from the “classic”. There is a small snag, they are all wide, 170 centimeters, and we need about 120. Therefore, you still have to cut a little. But shortening the axle will still be easier than sawing a car trailer in half to narrow it. So, we saw the axle in half with the help of a grinder, cut off a piece from the middle part, with the expectation that it should turn out to be about 120 centimeters in joining the halves and installing the wheels. This is done so that you can carry your cart where the ATV will pass.
Next, we will dock the axle halves. It is necessary to select a pipe with such a diameter that the ends of the axis go inside the pipe without a gap or with a very small one, in order to withstand the collapse, it should be zero.
We insert the axle shafts into the pipe section strictly in the center, boil the ends in a circle. The first stage is passed, the axis is ready and the length we need. A good plus of it is the following - it has platforms (mounts) for installing the platform.
Next, we think about how and from what we will make the drawbar. For those who do not know, for reference I will say:
Thedrawbar is what pulls the trailer.
Its variant is constructed from rectangular steel profiles. Choose the size yourself, depending on the planned load on the trailer. The length can also be of any shape (we choose from the calculation of the length of the goods, the longer the load, the correspondingly longer the drawbar). The center of gravity must be on the axle. For reliability, we weld small reinforcements for fastening the drawbar. We do it in any form, as they say, who has what kind of fantasy.
We choose the length and width of the site on ours.
Since we make it with our own hands, it is possible to choose the dimension for ourselves in advance. It should be convenient for transportation, I think the dimension should approximately correspond to an ATV.
The next step is the coupling device itself. We pursue the goal of convenience and speed of docking. In my opinion, the most suitable is to use a standard set that can be found in stores in the public domain - a tow ball and a self-locking ball hitch.
We weld the ball at the back to the device (beam) available on the ATV. The hitch device is bolted to the drawbar. If necessary, shorten the length of the bolts.
Let's start designing the frame. The frame must be suitable for the purpose of the trailer. We take steel profiles, measure the desired shape, cut with a grinder, weld together according to the planned option. I think at this stage no one should have questions. The manufacturing structure is elementary.
The only nuance to be considered when welding parts of the frame is a flat surface. We drill holes in the welded frame for attaching the bottom. We cut the bottom out of thick plywood, fasten it to the frame with screws, preferably with countersunk heads, I will explain why. Will not interfere with unloading with a shovel and installing boards. The weight of the trailer should be within 50 kg. In conclusion, the surface can be covered with an anti-corrosion coating for durability , or covered with thin iron. With use, of course, the surface will wear out, as a result of which it will be necessary to renew the coating.
Who is interested in the drawings of the trailer, only a slightly different shape
It is impossible to register such a self-made trailer for one simple reason: the ATV does not have a rear differential, therefore, use in conjunction with a trailer is prohibited and not desirable for the integrity of the tires.
Despite the impossibility of registration, a homemade ATV trailer will serve you for a long time and help out in many situations, and even if it is made by yourself, this is a profitable solution to the problem.

Consider next:
ATV trailer
Nowadays, fishermen and hunters are increasingly using vehicles that are unique in terms of cross-country ability. After all, the square really belongs to this category of uniqueness. But you need to somehow deliver it there, and here there is a trailer for transporting or transporting an ATV.
I think it will be useful material to read:
Every year the population of animals and fish decreases and decreases, probably due to non-traditional methods of catching and hunting (poachers do not sleep).
And in order to experience worthy pleasure, one has to go further and further into the forest, where others cannot pass. But this forest still needs to be reached. Many overcome both 100 and 200 kilometers on public roads.
If you drive this way on an ATV, you probably don’t even want to fish, and you won’t save enough money for rubber, because driving on asphalt just kills it. Everything is very simple, we use a trailer for transportation: we loaded the ATV, delivered it to the place, unloaded it and went where it was needed.
Many will think: Do we need this expensive hitch to transport an ATV?
Are you thinking of ordering a cargo taxi or taking it with a transport company? I assure you, it will be much more expensive, and it will bring a lot of inconvenience. I explain: firstly, ordering a taxi will require a waste of your time, and secondly: you need to find suitable ramps for loading onto a truck, during transportation you will need to be present (accompany), drive your car, or go with a taxi driver, the cost of such services is very expensive.
Believe me, buying a personal trailer will be much cheaper than using transport services.
The farther the destination of the transportation, the more profitable and faster the ATV trailer pays off its cost.
So you bought a trailer and with the money saved you can buy cover (plastic) and a manual winch. I think I convinced you, and buying a cart is worth it.
Now let's analyze
protecting it from dirt flying from under the wheels of the car and precipitation.
Trailer cover + frame
trailer cover
Pros: it is quite inexpensive, as it is made of PVC, it washes well from dirt
Cons: not durable material, awning lacing is a slow process but mandatory, rear visibility is significantly reduced, which makes it difficult to manage; given the area of resistance, the aerodynamics of the car deteriorates and, of course, consumption increases.
ATV Carry Case
ATV Carry Case
The price varies from 2000 to 15000 thousand, depending on the quality of the material and design. The cheap ones go without ties and serve mainly for sheltering ATVs for storage, while the more expensive ones already have ties and a denser synthetic material with a water-repellent layer, stitched with high quality. Minus - the layer peels off when washing the cover, not immediately, but a fact. The aerodynamics are good, but the case is prone to “whipping” when moving at speed, which reduces durability. Significantly increased visibility compared to an awning. Attaching the cover is very simple and does not cause much difficulty.
Plastic trailer cover
plastic cover for trailer
Minus one)))) The cost is quite high and not everyone can afford it, it is about 40,000 thousand. But accordingly, such a cover has more pluses: aerodynamics is increased many times due to the streamlined shape, the metal frame, the presence of the quinoa makes it convenient to roll our quadric into the trailer, it also serves as additional fasteners, and you already think less about how to fix the quadric in the cart.
