Quick Power Gains: Intake, Filtration, Exhaust
Basic airflow upgrades usually make the biggest difference for common trail scenarios.
High-Flow Intakes & Filters for Fast Gains
High-flow intakes and quality filters increase airflow to the engine. That improves throttle response and smoothes power delivery.
American Off-Roads lists fitment by model so you pick parts that fit. If you have questions, our team offers quick, model-specific guidance.
Exhaust Systems for Torque-Focused Builds
Match an exhaust that suits your riding style. Choose systems tuned for low-end torque if you tow or haul or favor steep climbs.
Consider matched intake/exhaust kits for balanced results and simpler installs. Verify fuel mapping and keep filters clean when it’s dusty.
- High-flow intakes and filters improve throttle feel and keep delivery consistent on mixed terrain.
- Select exhausts that balance torque, sound, and legal limits for long rides.
- Pick matched kits for easier installs and predictable performance results.
- Protect gains with proper cooling, underbody protection, and routine maintenance.
| Component | Primary Benefit | Best Timing |
|---|---|---|
| Air Intake | Better airflow | Start here |
| Filter | Consistent delivery | With intake |
| Exhaust | Torque and tone | After intake |
See and Be Seen: LED Light Bars and Lighting Upgrades
A thoughtful lighting setup improves visibility and reduces on-trail fatigue.
Choose lighting that fits how and where you ride. American Off-Roads stocks reliable LED bars, compact pods, and mounting kits to help you install neatly. Our team can recommend mounts, harnesses, and fits so your build stays tidy and reliable.
Mounting Options for LED Bars & Pods
Use LED bars for distance and width and pods for tight/technical areas. Common mounts include bumper plates, A-arm mounts, and roof brackets. Plan placement to protect lenses from brush and strikes.
Night Riding: Beam Choices for Safety
Match beam patterns to terrain: spot = distance, flood = near spread, combo for mixed trails. Proper lighting improves reaction time and reduces rider fatigue on late rides.
LED light installation and wiring basics
Confirm amperage, use a wiring harness with a relay, and secure weatherproof connectors. Route cables away from pinch points and carry spare fuses. Check local rules for auxiliary lights before on-road use.
- Pick efficient bars and compact pods to save battery draw.
- Evaluate spot, flood, and combo beams for your typical trails.
- Pair lights with mirrors and skid plates for better situational awareness.
- Watch for sale bundles that include bars, mounts, and harnesses.
| Type | Ideal Use | Typical Feature |
|---|---|---|
| Full-length bars | Fast, open trails | Long throw spot or combo beams |
| Compact pods | Tight/technical areas | Wide flood, low draw |
| Mount kits & harnesses | Clean multi-model installs | Relays, weatherproof connectors, fuse holders |
Protect the Machine: Skids, A-Arm Guards, Bumpers
Proper armor builds confidence on rocks and overgrown trails.
American Off-Roads helps you choose underbody armor and bumpers that fit your atv and the terrain you tackle most. Riders often report major durability gains after installing full underbody kits and A-arm guards.
Full Skid Kits for Rock
Opt for full-coverage plates to shield the frame, differentials, and mounts. Seek recessed hardware and formed edges so the plates slide smoothly instead of snagging.
Impact Protection: Bumpers & Guards
Install front/rear bumpers to deflect brush and absorb low-speed hits. Combine bumpers with A-arm guards and sliders for the best all-around protection.
- Armor is insurance: skid plates and A-arm guards shield vital parts from rocks and ruts.
- Consider UHMW for light weight or aluminum for durability based on terrain.
- Verify fitment, re-torque after shakedown, and add handguards.
| Item | Main Benefit | Best Use |
|---|---|---|
| Full skids | Frame and differential protection | Rocky trails |
| A-arm guards | Protect suspension parts | Technical lines |
| Bumpers | Deflect brush and absorb impacts | Brush/low-speed impacts |
Get the Stance and Clearance You Need: Lift Kits and Wheel Spacers
A small lift with well-matched spacers can transform how your rig moves through ruts and rocks.
Lift kits plus spacers change clearance and track width so your vehicle clears obstacles more cleanly. American Off-Roads stocks curated lift/spacer kits across Polaris, Can-Am, Honda, Yamaha, CFMoto, and more.
Lifts for Tire Room & Belly Clearance
Lifts add belly room and tire clearance so your vehicle glides over ruts instead of high-centering.
Quality kits include clear instructions and hardware, making weekend installs realistic with common tools. After install, check torque specs after a few rides since new fasteners can settle.
Spacers for Stability & Feel
Wheel spacers widen track width for a more planted feel, boosting confidence in off-camber and technical climbs.
Match spacer thickness/lift height to tire size to preserve steering feel and CV angles. Consider firmer damping if wider stance or taller tires add leverage.
- Pair lifts with skid upgrades to keep underbody protection at the new ride height.
- Verify atv utv fitment for year/trim to avoid geometry surprises.
- For towing/hauling, balance lift goals with stability/braking.
| Choice | Main Benefit | When to Install |
|---|---|---|
| Lift kits | Extra clearance for bigger tires | When scraping is common |
| Wheel spacers | Wider track, more stability | For technical or off-camber terrain |
| Matched kits | Matched fitment and hardware | Weekend-ready installs |
Handling & Comfort: Suspension and Add-Ons
A well-tuned suspension and smart cockpit add-ons help you stay fresh on long trails.
Suspension tuning is the quickest route to better control and comfort, especially after adding weight or bigger tires. Pick shock kits/springs matched to your terrain and load—solo, two-up, or with cargo.
Add seat cushions, bar risers, and handguards to reduce fatigue and steady steering. Minor tweaks maintain posture and lessen arm pump.
- Stiffen or soften damping to match speed/surface so tires stay planted for better traction/braking.
- Combine small-bump compliance with bottom-out control for a balanced, predictable chassis.
- Service shocks/bushings on schedule to keep handling crisp.
| Upgrade | Benefit | When to Use | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shock packages | Improved control/damping | After adding weight or tires | Choose valving for trail or aggressive terrain |
| Seat cushions | Reduced rider fatigue | All-day sessions | Seek gel/absorbing foam |
| Risers & hand guards | Posture + hand protection | Tech trails | Reduce pump; protect hands |
| Tire & setup | Grip + compliance | With suspension tuning | Tune PSI and sidewall |
Our team helps pick kits and parts that meet goals without overspending on unused features. A comfy cockpit builds confidence and supports your riding style.
Essential Rider Gear: Safety + Style
The right protective apparel boosts safety and confidence on every trail.
Every rider should start with a DOT-approved helmet, clear/tinted goggles, gloves, and sturdy boots. This foundation set is the baseline of safe riding.
For higher speeds or racing, add a chest guard, kidney support, and knee braces. These pieces reduce impact forces and protect joints/torso during high-speed incidents.
Head-to-Toe Basics: Helmet, Goggles, Gloves, Boots
Choose helmets that fit snugly and carry proper certification. Swap liners/pads as they wear to keep protection reliable.
Pick goggles that seal well and stay clear. A spare pair of gloves and dry socks in your storage bag increase comfort on long rides.
Chest guards, kidney belts, knee braces for fast riding
Layer chest and kidney protection under jerseys for airflow plus impact resistance. Knee braces reduce hyperextension risk on technical sections.
Apparel Sets for Trail Days
Pick pants and jerseys built to move, breathe, and resist abrasion. Bundled sets with matching gloves simplify buys and often lower cost.
- Prepare for the crash with a certified lid, eye protection, hand protection, and proper boots.
- Add chest/knee/kidney protection as speeds rise.
- Choose breathable pants and jerseys that resist tears and wick moisture.
- Favor high-visibility accents and reflective elements for low-light rides.
- Fit is crucial—correct sizing lowers fatigue and helps control.
| Item | Main Benefit | Use |
|---|---|---|
| Certified helmet | Protects head | Always |
| Chest/Kidney Protection | Impact/torso shield | High-speed or aggressive |
