Chain drives allow for easy gear ratio changes, aiding in optimized ATV performance on various terrains. However, they come with the trade-off of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.neighbor.com\/storage-blog\/atv-maintenance-tips-buying-guide\/\">increased maintenance<\/a>. On the other hand, shaft drives offer less maintenance but limited gear customization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"keep-your-atv-safe-for-years-to-come\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Keep Your ATV Safe for Years to Come<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether you decide on a sport model for intensive trail riding, or a utility ATV for work on the farm, keeping them well-maintained and safe is key for their longevity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>UV rays, rain, snow, and dust can damage your ATV if exposed for long periods of time<\/strong>, so part of your purchase process should be <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.neighbor.com\/storage-blog\/how-to-store-atv\/\">finding a place to store your new ATV<\/a>.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most types of ATVs are around 7 feet long, and between 3-4 feet wide, so they easily fit in garages or climate-controlled sheds and barns.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, if you just don&rsquo;t have the space to spare, you should consider a storage unit. There are many local storage solutions that will keep your ATV safe and out of the elements.
