Bombardier ATV - Evolution Of A Recreational Vehicle
Bombardier is a manufacturer for all-terrain vehicles (ATV) and is a competitor for companies such as Honda and Yamaha etc. The company was founded by J.A. Bombardier back in the year 1942. Today, in the United States, Asia Pacific and Europe, the company employs nearly 7500 people.
One of its primary products is the Traxster Max ATV. It has been noted by many watchers in the all-terrain vehicle industry as being innovative and for its design and construction.
Traxster Max ATV
Some of the features of Bombardiers Traxster Max makes it an ATV that differs from others in its market. One of the Traxster Max's defining features is that the engineers of the company decided to design it for two riders. The Bombardier Traxster Max is set up for tandem seating, which is kind of like riding a motorcycle, while retaining the same shape and size as a traditional quad. Conversely, manufacturers such as Polaris, John Deere and others only have seating that is side-by-side for multiple passenger off-road vehicles.
Both the passenger and the driver are provided with acceptable seating comfort. If you have ever taken a ride on the back of an ATV, you will be familiar with how less than comfortable it can be. Hitting any type of road obstruction such as a rock or a medium size branch can have some painful results to the rear passenger.
The Traxster ATV allows for ample leg protection as well as substantial support from the suspension so that each rider can experience a less harsh off-road experience. This ATV also has ample power, equipped with a four stroke, liquid cooled engine that is powerful enough to to handle most any task.
An ATV For Work and Play
There are many reasons why people buy ATVs. For people that enjoy off-road racing, Bombardier has an ATV Rally series model DS90, for people who prefer off-road excurstions.
For the professional minded individuals, Bombardier has a model known as the Outlander. In the year 2006, Bombardier made a significant announcement that it was no longer going to produce its Quest and Traxter ATVs to be replaced by Outlander platform. The reason for this was because these machines were primarily made for work first, and recreation a distant second. They still stated that they were going to support the Quest and Traxter but were going to put significant effort into building and marketing the Outlander.
Bombardier's Competitors
When considering buying a Bombardier ATV, you should also take into consideration other companies that manufacture off-road vehicles throughout the world. Companies such as Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, Polaris and Kazuma. All these various manufacturers have a large loyal base of users who would support each one.
