Polaris youth ATVs come equipped with an adjustable speed control system that controls engine RPM and the speed of the vehicle. The speed limiting device may be adjusted by supervising adults when they determine that their child is capable of safely handling additional speed. The dealer cannot remove or adjust any speed limiting device under any circumstances, even at the customer's request, either prior to or after the sale.
