ATV Source attended the 33rd Annual
Dealernew's "Powersports Dealer Expo" held in
Indianapolis this past February. The Dealer Expo is a
showcase for all things Motorcycle and ATV related.
The event encompassed the entire Indiana Convention
Center and the floor of the RCA Dome. With the trade
show being in my backyard, I live in Indy, the Source
hosted several key industry movers and shakers during
the three day event. We were privileged with a
first hand look at all of the newest ATV products coming
to the market. Throughout the entire show, we stalked
the event with a digital video camera poised to capture
all of the newest products. The Source
is committed to providing the ATV Community with all of
the latest product news and will be providing reports on
these products in the next couple of days.
Below is just one of the many new showcased products:
High Lifter's Detroit Locker
High
Lifter Products introduced a traction-aiding product to
the industry. The High Lifter Detroit Gearless
Locker.
High Lifter together with Trac Tech, Inc., maker of
the Detroit Locker, introduced a fully automatic locking
differential. The Gearless Locker is based on Trac
Tech's proven gearless technology (no interior gear
teeth). It is fully automatic and eliminates front
wheel spinout common on limited slip differentials.
This technology provides easier steering in a turn by
allowing the outside wheel to turn faster than the
inside wheel reducing steering effort as compared to a
fully locked differential.
The design and function of the Detroit Gearless
Locker has been proven in off-road and street
performance applications and is a natural for ATV riders
wanting to stop one wheel spin outs. This product is
durable and reliable. High Lifter will provided a
warranty, and if desired, a video illustrating
installation.
Models for the Honda 450, 400 and 300 will be
available first, with other models and brands to follow
as quickly as possible. High Lifter Products is the
exclusive distributor for Detroit Locker ATV Products.
