March 2006 ATV-Industry magazine Product Debut

AudioFormz, Inc. has reportedly introduced a complete new sound system “designed specifically for ATV’s” states their new product release. It goes on to say, “Hit the trails and mud while listening to your favorite tunes with the new AudioFormz ATV sound systems, specifically for ATVs. The system includes a marine CD player and a pair of marine 6.5 inch speakers.” Evidently the marine components are better for the pounding they’d get on an ATV, which must be similar to that of a boat. “The high gloss, black fiberglass housing is water and mud resistant and its compact design allows for easy installation on the front or rear of most ATVs,” according to the company. They go on to say, “No wiring or installation is required, thanks to the supplied six foot cigarette cable and plug … Just plug and play.” Optional camouflage covers are also said to be available.

Can powersports apparel—designed for functionality and fit—be chic, too? Klim thinks so. In its press kit, the Idaho-based “producer of technical riding gear” asserts that theirs “incorporates the latest technology, truly unique features and unsurpassed quality—all in an effort to enhance comfort and to insure the highest level of protection.” For the daringest daredevils in your ATV clientele, introduce them to Klim’s high-tech riding gear, like the Moab and Revolt lines of pants, jackets, gloves and pullovers. Those unique features, says Klim, include “microfiber fabric which offers maximum breathability and superior moisture wicking properties,” with “sublimated artwork” that resists fading. Even the Revolt Pullover is a “lightweight shell made of wind-resistant, 100-percent polyester fabric” and is “oversized to fit over a chest protector,” according to Klim, who says they have “a strategic partnership with GORE-TEX.” The Moab Pant, for example, is said to be composed of three different, “high-tenacity” nylons, with 25 percent mesh to “enhance moisture vapor transfer,” plus Kevlar side panels and much more.
