ATV plastic refers to fairings attached to an ATV to improve aesthetics, aerodynamics, and protection. They can vary in size, shape, color, and design and may serve specific functions such as preventing mud and debris from hitting the rider. Aftermarket options allow for customization, but larger or intricately designed parts can be more expensive. Racing ATVs have smaller plastics, while utility ATVs have larger ones.
The term “ATV plastic” refers to the fairings attached to an all-terrain vehicle, or ATV. Fairings are made of plastic or other composite materials such as Kevlar, and are pieces that are bolted to the vehicle’s frame to improve aesthetics, aerodynamics, and protection of vital engine components. The size, shape, color and design of ATV plastic can vary significantly depending on the type of ATV for which the plastic is designed, as well as the rider’s preference for aesthetics and function. Of all the components on an ATV, plastics are some of the most commonly broken.
Some types of ATV plastic may serve a particular function; Rear fenders, for example, will cover the rear wheels to prevent mud and other debris from shooting up and hitting the rider or spectators. If the ATV is to be made street legal, such ATV plastic will be necessary in most cases. Front mud guards are also available to help prevent mud and debris from hitting the rider during a ride, thus obstructing their view. A hood can be designed to protect engine or suspension components from rock or debris impacts.
Most aftermarket ATV plastics will be designed to fit specific ATV models produced by well-known manufacturers. The design of aftermarket ATV plastic can mimic the original plastic designs created by the manufacturer for those people who want to replace broken fairings with new ones that look identical. Other designs may differ from the original plastic designs so that a rider can customize the look and function of the ATV. A pilot can, for example, modify the color or the aesthetic design of the ATV by changing the fairing with plastic of another color. Differently shaped fairings can alter the appearance and function of the ATV.
While the cost of ATV plastic is generally quite affordable, fairing parts can be more expensive if they are quite large or intricately designed. Some ATVs, for example, have headlights, racks, or other accessories, and the plastics will need to be designed to accommodate those accessories. Larger plastic parts, such as exceptionally wide hoods, can also be much more expensive than smaller fairings or hoods. Racing ATVs typically feature much smaller plastic parts to keep vehicle weight down, while utility ATVs typically feature larger plastics for more coverage and protection.
