ATVs are becoming popular in the transportation industry today. The acronym ATV stands for All-Terrain Vehicle. As the name suggests, they are intended for off-road use on trails and can take you on adventures far away from home and the road. These types of vehicles are designed for interactive riding. Drivers must be able to shift their weight  freely in all directions, depending on the situation and type of terrain.

 ATVs are more popular for trail riding, hunting, farming and other recreational uses. Some  define them as the modern, mechanized horses that offer a new brand of adventure and the ability to go places that are difficult for even horses.

The most common type of ATV sold is the utility type. These are the traditional type which are widely used on and off the road. The other type, the sports-type, is much more popular to hobbyists. Many use them to race or compete with other ATV owners.

Just like the regular cars, sports-type owners can modify and customize some ATV parts for added performance. Some examples of ATV races and competition are ATV motocross, wood racing, desert racing, hill climbing, ice racing, speedway, Tourist Trophy, flat track, drag racing and many more.

The advent of the modern ATV started as early as the year 1983. The main idea was adopted from its earlier version called the "Quadracycle". The company Royal Enfield started making improvements on the simple versions of non-powered Quadracycles which also resemble  the modern design of quad-bike.

During the 1960s, many manufacturers followed by producing the same off-road vehicles that has the capability of crossing swamps, ponds and also can travel on dry and rough surfaces. The body was made of hard plastic or fiber glass and had six-wheels of which all were driven, and all with low pressure (approx. 3 PSI).

Instead of having the typical motorcycle-type handle bars, they were equipped with steering wheels or a control stick. The production of these vehicles was prominent in America.

It became famous with American and Canadian hunters and for some who enjoyed doing fun trail rides. After several years the Japanese auto manufacturers took over with the development of the ATV and started developing three and four-wheeled versions.

One of the largest innovators of the three and four-wheeled ATVs was Honda. They led the revolution of the modern day design we are now familiar with. The company introduced their first three-wheeled ATV, the ATC90, which was used in several famous hollywood movies, like James Bond: Diamonds are Forever as an example.

 The design of the ATC90 was patterned from earlier versions of the ATVs that had large balloon tires instead of having tires with mechanical suspension. During the early 1980s, mechanical suspension and lower-profile tires for the ATVs was introduced.

Honda again led the innovation by releasing the Honda ATC200E known as Big Red. It was equipped with both suspension and racks making it the first three-wheeled utility ATV. Many companies followed, except Suzuki. Since Honda was able to established their name brand on the industry many competitors had a very difficult time selling their own ATVs.

While Honda was leading in the industry for producing three-wheeled ATVs, Suzuki tried to find their own way into the industry and did so by introducing the development of four-wheeled ATVs by releasing the QuadRunner LT125. 

This was intended as a recreational machine for beginners. Many companies realized that the four-wheeler was starting to get a lot of attention in the market so most of them built their own models to compete in the market, including Honda.

The industry has grown to large proportions, many companies have joined the competition and are developing new features for the machines. The ATVs are really helpful, especially with oil prices going up, we can say that they are highly economical. Many states and countries have regulations concerning the usage of ATVs and hopefully most purchasers will abide by the rules. For more information about ATVs, you could check here.

The Electric Guitar

Acoustic guitars and their various musical relatives can be traced back thousands of years, but the idea of a guitar using electric currents to amplify its sound had to wait until the 1930s to start to take root. Necessity was, perhaps, the mother of invention here, as the volume of the guitar, used previously in blues and jazz, could not compete with the new sounds of the big band and the shriek of brass instruments. Early experiments with simply adding microphones to guitars had only limited success, partly due to the quality of the tone and partly because of the feedback that could occur as soon as a reasonable volume was reached. The breakthrough came when Les Paul, a jazz guitarist, successfully experimented with a magnetic pickup system that could convert the vibrations of the strings to an electrical signal to be amplified and sent to a speaker. Soon, guitarists started adding pickups to their hollow-bodied guitars, but in fact there was no need for an electric guitar to have a hollow body, as the pickups could detect very subtle vibrations and amplify them anyway. Before long, Fender, Rickenbacker and, of course, Gibson were producing solid-bodied electric guitars.

Innovations unique to the electric guitar

Electric guitars allowed many innovations that would go on to define their sound. Most noticeably was the fact that volume and tone controls could be added to the electronics between the pickup and the cable, which meant that the accomplished guitarist could adjust the tone and loudness whilst on stage. Second and third pickups were added at various points along the body to take advantage of the difference in tone at various points along the strings, and these could be blended together with multiple controls. The tremolo arm appeared, allowing notes to be bent down or up (before, they could only be bent upwards by pulling the string away from its natural line, thus tightening it). The tremolo arm was part of the early sound of rock 'n' roll, and could make a vibrato sound or create the long, sustained, wailing sounds associated with Jimi Hendrix. Other sound effects, such as chorus, overdrive, vibrate, wah-wah, reverb and delay (echo) could also be controlled via foot pedals by the player, further adding to the variety of sounds available. The pickup was also applied to bass guitars, and is now seen on violins, mandolins, cellos and many other types of string instrument.

Musical styles using electric guitars

The genres of music that use electric guitars are too numerous for this article, but their origins can be traced back to the jazz and big band sound that became popular between the wars. Blues guitarists pioneered the "dirty" sound that would later morph into heavy metal, and no rock and roll group would be complete without at least one electric guitar. Bob Dylan was once called "Judas" by a heckler when he swapped his acoustic for an electric on stage, a significant moment in electric folk. The sixties saw mainstream pop and psychedelic bands putting the instrument to good use, and disco, punk, ska and reggae music of the seventies used the instrument's inherent rhythm; a lively and thriving African sound is once of the guitar's most innovative current streams. Whenever a new technology has come along, especially the electronic revolution of the late 1970s and 1980s, people have written off the electric guitar, but it shows no sign of losing popularity.

Do early 90's Yamaha 115 2-strokes have automatic shut down switches for low oil levels?

I have brought my engine to the shop twice and they have given me no solution to my engine issue. My Yamaha 115 will drop RPMs and act like it is running off 2 cylinders randomly while on the water. I have noticed recently that my oil reserve pump isn't working so the tank on the engine needs to be refilled manually. Is it possible that when the oil level drops to "unsafe" levels that the engine will refuse full power and activate a kill switch that cuts off 2 cylinders?? Thanks guys.

carbed, or DFI?

no, but maybe you have a "slow mode", a "limp home" feature that randomly disables cylinders in case of overtemp.

I don't recommend running the motor with the temp switches disconnected, but you can test 'em on the kitchen stove with a pot of water and a continuity tester. They should kick on at about 163º F (that's a "generic" running temp for 2-stroke outboards, don't know if your yammy is different).

Or, could be a heat-related ignition component failure -- powerpack or a couple coils. Look on the engine block for what could be melted epoxy; inspect the coils for cracks.

Closely inspect all the ignition wiring on the engine block, look for burned, missing or chafed insulation, where something could be grounding out intermittently.

You need to check for spark when it starts acting up, which I know will be tough on the water -- maybe you have a friend with a boat that can help out.

If it misfires at idle, a cylinder drop test will help narrow it down -- engine idling, pull then replace the plug wires, one at a time. If RPMs don't decrease dramatically, that cylinder's not making power -- test it for spark by pulling the plug, reattaching it to the boot, holding it against the engine block and looking for a sharp blue spark while turning the engine over.

If it only misfires at high speed, you might be able to detect an ignition-related misfire with a timing light, hooking it to each plug wire in turn.

Check the fuel tank for water and/or debris that might be randomly sucking up against the inlet screen.

Whatever you do, find a better qualified tech to work on your motor -- they should be able to diagnose this problem.
