Black Widow S-Curve Dual Runner Folding ATV Ramps
The Black Widow S-Curve Dual Runner Folding ATV Ramps allow for safer loading of ATVs, UTVs, go-carts, golf carts and similar vehicles with low ground clearance. Manufactured with heavy-duty steel, the ramp set supports up to 1,500 pounds. The ramp’s unique S-curve design reduces the risk of high-centering during truck or trailer loading while the oval punch plate rung design allows debris to fall through for better traction. For added convenience, the ramp folds in half for compact storage during transport or in the shop.
The Black Widow S-Curve Dual Runner Folding ATV Ramps are manufactured with thick square steel tubing for superior strength and finished with black powder coating to resist rust and corrosion. Each ramp measures 7 feet by 6 inches in length and 12.25 inches wide. When folded, each ramp measures 46 inches in length for compact storage in most truck beds. Weighing 18 pounds per ramp, they are lightweight for single-person handling.

Monimoto 9 Off-Road GPS
The Monimoto 9 is a dust- and water-resistant unit designed for the needs of ATV/side-by-side owners. The small size and extra durability make it a perfect means of delivering peace of mind to off-road fans.
Monimoto 9 is the next generation of the company’s high performance security tracking products, which uses both cellular signals and GPS tracking capabilities to deliver real-time location data on vehicles and equipment protected by the device.
Monimoto’s proven technology uses a key fob to automatically activate the system when the fob moves away from the tracking device. If the tracking device senses movement, the system immediately notifies the owner via a phone call. At that point, the Monimoto app provides detailed location data that can be shared with authorities to avoid a theft or facilitate a quick return of the vehicle or protected equipment.
The Monimoto 9 is easily hidden, as it weighs only 6 ounces with a form factor of 1.5-by-3.5 inches. Since it is battery powered, it does not require wiring to the vehicle and will not drain the vehicle’s battery over time.
