Important Recall Information

Do you own a Yamaha Rhino Side by Side (SxS) ATV vehicle? If so, this please read this carefully. These ATV's have been recalled due to their tendency to roll over. They do not have doors on the passenger compartments, so when they get out of balance a persons natural reaction is to kick out the leg to try and re-balance it. This does nothing but snap a leg in half. Same goes for arms. There have also been reports of head and spinal cord injuries.

They may roll over because of their high center of gravity, and narrow wheel base. Apparently there have been enough injuries that lawsuits are being filed. If you or someone you love has been hurt on one of these, you may be able to join in.

As I sit here writing this, I have the television on, and I just listened to a commercial for this exact same thing. I guess there have been many of these Yamaha Rhino Rollover incidents. I just want to remind all of you, that these vehicles are not toys. I'm not sure if it is required, but you should always wear proper protective gear while riding, especially a helmet. You may not look cool, but I know I'd rather look silly with my brain intact, then look cool with my brains hanging out of my skull.

Just saying.
