what size atv for 300 lb man

Hey folks, I'm a 300 lb rider looking to get an ATV and I'm not sure what size I need. I’ve been eyeing a few 500‑cc and 650‑cc models, but I’m worried about power versus weight and handling. Should I go bigger for extra torque, or stick with something lighter? Also, any thoughts on seat width and suspension that can handle my weight comfortably? Looking for real‑world experiences and suggestions before I make a purchase.

what size trailer for 3 atvs

Hey folks, I'm planning a weekend trip with three ATVs and need a trailer that can handle them safely. I've got two 4x4s and a smaller 2WD, all around 1,800 lbs each. Does anyone have recommendations on size, weight capacity, and whether a single or double axle trailer is better? Also curious about any loading tricks or tie‑down tips for keeping everything secure on the road. Any brand or DIY builds you swear by? Thanks in advance for the help!
