Offroad ATV Anti Roll System & Company History

Pro
ATV Motocross Racer, Joe Byrd, raced with
the Sonic Edge Anti-Roll System at several
AMA ATV MX National events in 2009 |
Out on the track, the Sonic Anti Roll System provides
added stability in the corners by reducing body
roll and allowing for faster cornering. The system
can be used in all types of racing from TT to cross
country and even motocross. “The Sonic system
can be dialed in for specific track types and conditions
so you can customized how it handles for any type
of situation. It makes the quad feel more stable
going into a corner so you are able to hold a higher
speed going in and coming out,” said pro ATV
motocross racer Joe Byrd, who has been using the
unit for the 2009 season and plans to continue using
it in his 2010 set up as well.
Pro GNCC ATV racer, Jarrod McClure also tested
the Sonic Edge Anti Roll System for cross country
racing and is currently testing different configurations
for next season. “The Anti Roll System is
pretty easy to install. It seems to help in corners
and with off camber areas as well. The system
does add some spring rate and will make your suspension
a little stiffer, but you can easily counteract
that by running a softer shock set up,”
said McClure. “I’ve been trying out
a lighter bar set up for next season because I
think that will be the way to go for my machine
so that it will be a smoother ride all around,”
McClure added.

GNCC Pro ATV
Racer, Jarrod McClure, tested the Sonic
Edge Anti Roll System on his Yamaha YFZ450
for cross country racing, and don't be
surprised if he doesn't race with it on
his new Polaris Outlaw for 2010

Upon testing the system and working with different
configurations, many ATV racers are quick to point
out that it is very important to make sure that
each side of the system is set up equally in order
to ensure the best possible handling and performance
out on the track and trail. “If it isn’t
set up equally on both sides, it kind of defeats
the purpose of having an anti roll system. It
does take a little time to dial everything in,
but the results are worth it,” said McClure.
At Sonic Offroad, their passion for off-road
racing is what drives them to continuously come
up with new and innovative ways to give racers
an advantage in competition. The Sonic Edge Anti
Roll System is one of those products that could
quite possibly become something you see every
pro ATV level racer running in the near future
in order to give them that added edge when championships
are on the line.
