A Graphics kit<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Now very popular, graphic kits to be glued on the plastic body of motorcycles\/ATVs allow you to give them a new look quickly and efficiently.<\/p>\n<p>The number of companies offering this service in Quebec has jumped in the last few years and they can meet all your needs or your artistic desires. Each of them offers some standard designs, but their graphic designers can also design a complete semi-custom or fully customized package.<\/p>\n<p>Their products are suitable for most brands and models of motorcycles, ATVs, snowmobiles, jet skis and even boats. It&#8217;s an original gift idea, which can also be offered as a gift certificate and a great way to encourage local, here are a few places:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/NivekGraphics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/NivekGraphics\/<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twiceproduction.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>https:\/\/twiceproduction.com\/<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kutvek-amerika.com\/fr-ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>https:\/\/www.kutvek-amerika.com\/fr-ca\/<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.e-sticky.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>https:\/\/www.e-sticky.com\/<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p>and many others, reasonably priced and similar from one place to another.<\/p>\n<p>Here are pictures of my bike with its original design and two totally different designs made by Quebec companies.[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;21684,21685,21686&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_no&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Branded_products\"><\/span>2.

You have to buy one of the 3 models of automatic clutch that are available for a wide range of off-road motorcycle\/ATV models.<\/p>\n<p>The main advantage of this clutch is that it avoids having to stall the engine and use the manual clutch lever at all times (the lever is still functional if you want to use it).<\/p>\n<p>It is practical on tight trails, on a technical passage or simply to give your arms a break. Beginner and advanced riders of both enduro and motocross have never been disappointed with this automatic system and can&#8217;t live without it.<\/p>\n<p>Although expensive, this luxury gift will surely please your favorite rider.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;21690&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_cta h2=&#8221;Articles you may also like:&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"penci-entry-title entry-title grid-title\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FXR_on_Test_Helium_Helmet_and_Maverick_MX_Goggles\"><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/chicksandmachines.com\/en\/motorcycles-en\/fxr-on-test-helmet-maverick-mx-goggles\/\">FXR on Test : Helium Helmet and Maverick MX Goggles<\/a><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3 class=\"penci-entry-title entry-title grid-title\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tips_for_ATV_mud_lovers\"><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/chicksandmachines.com\/en\/atv-en\/atv-mud-lovers\/\">Tips for ATV mud lovers<\/a><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3 class=\"penci-entry-title entry-title grid-title\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Official_launch_of_Segway_vehicles_on_the_Canadian_market\"><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/chicksandmachines.com\/en\/atv-en\/segway-launch-canada\/\">Official launch of Segway vehicles on the Canadian market<\/a><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>[\/vc_cta][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Steering_Stabilizer\"><\/span>4. Steering Stabilizer<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The steering stabilizer, like the automatic clutch, will quickly become a valuable ally for its user. Knowing very well how much the arms are solicited on a motocross track, a steering stabilizer will soften the ride and reduce the left-right jerks on the handlebars.<\/p>\n<p>Obviously it won&#8217;t compensate for a bad suspension setup but it will complement it well. It is a system that requires a good investment, because you have to buy the stabilizer and the strap to adapt it to the off-road vehicle.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, the stabilizer being universal, only the brace will have to be modified when changing the vehicle. Personally, I use the stabilizer made by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scott-sports.com\/global\/en\/country\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Scott<\/a>, because in my opinion it is one of the most efficient in the industry.<\/p>\n<p>I use the same stabilizer since 2010 and even if I change my bike every year, I only had to change the brace once.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;21691&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Anti-vibration_handlebars\"><\/span>5. Anti-vibration handlebars<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The anti-vibration handlebars are another product to make life easier for the arms and to increase the comfort of riding off-road machines. The industry offers different technology but it is all about cushions added to the handlebar attachment point to reduce the small vibrations that sometimes cause hand numbness.<\/p>\n<p>The purchase is relatively simple because this type of handlebars is universal for any model of motorcycle\/ATV. You only need to consider the size of the clamps of the motorcycle\/ATV to know if you should choose a standard size handlebar or an oversized one.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;21692&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Handlebar_grips_and_cushion\"><\/span>6.

The thinner they are, the easier it is to hold the handlebars and reduce the strain on the arms.<\/p>\n<p>They are mainly used in motocross. The embossed ones have ribs to help grip while the gel ones promote comfort and are recommended for long trail rides. The pads also come in different colors and designs.<\/p>\n<p>The only parameter to consider when purchasing is the type of handlebar on which it will be installed, either on a standard handlebar with crossbar or on an oversized handlebar without crossbar.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;21693&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;21694&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Swivel_lever\"><\/span>7.

I propose this gift idea, pivoting levers, which, by their 180\u00b0 or 360\u00b0 bending design, considerably reduce the risk of breakage. Some manufacturers such as Zeta or Torc1 offer efficient pivot clutch and brake levers and sometimes offer a few color choices.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;21695&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Boots\"><\/span>8.
