American Off-Roads Talk Amped Off-Road Harnesses and Give You The Overview
You can order your straps in 2” or 3” width to prevent biting into even the most broad of shoulders.
Amped Off-road harnesses come with padding that can be removed and moved to different positions inside of the harness. Take a moment to really imagine that! As you are driving through rough terrain, your body held in place by straps of fabric, constantly knocking into narrow straps– now imagine that bruising and aching the next day. That can all be avoided now with wide, comfortable padding that keeps all of the support and safety you need.
To add to the list of features you can, and definitely should, choose to use– these bad boys come with a removable, adjustable sternum strap. This durable strap sits across (you guessed it!) your sternum, keeping your straps snuggly in place, and adding even more points of contact to keep you from bouncing around. A four point harness is usually enough for most people, but adding more security never hurts!
The harness is safer than your stock harnesses, but that’s not all they are bringing to the table. In our shop we currently have EIGHT vibrant colors. That way you can mix and match to your heart’s content and find the perfect color scheme for your UTV…. before you get it covered in mud, that is. (Don’t worry, it’ll wash right off!)
Have you ever taken a moment to think about what makes a really, really good UTV seats? If you were picking out a seat for your house, what would you want in it? Support? Comfort? Something you can sink into, kick your feet up, crack open a cold drink in, and then forget about the rest of the world?
When you take each of those elements apart, piece by piece, it always comes down to the same basic idea. Craftsmanship means comfort. The fabric, the cushioning, that sweet, sweet lumbar support– someone designed each of those functions with research, a plan, and a lot of care about your comfort.
Here at American Off-Roads, we think that you should expect the same level of comfort from your UTV seats. You spend your free time, maybe even some of your work time, in them– bouncing around off the beaten path, getting tossed side to side, probably feeling like you might slip over the edge of your seats as you move.
We’ve got a little secret to tell you; it’s not supposed to feel that way. Your side by side seats should be hugging your body into place, preventing extreme movements and possible, next-day, injuries. It should be wide enough for comfort and angled just right for support. There should be some give in the padding of your seat that helps you sink deeper, and more securely into your seat.
If that sounds too good to be true, boy do we have some news for you! Amped Off-Road is changing the game, but before we tell you exactly why, let’s talk about where other seats are lacking.
A quick internet search about stock UTV seats yields dozens of complaints, with some major offenders.
American Off-Roads Talk Amped Off-Road Seats and Give You The Overview
Can-Am X3 seats pop up a lot in consumer complaints. The mounts on their seats tend to loosen, causing the lower quality fabric to rub against the plastic interior of the vehicle until it frays and shreds. After that you are left with a seat that looks rough, is no longer sealed against water and mud (do you know how much bacteria can get in those nooks and crannies when they aren’t sealed right?), and can’t even hold you steady while you move. The seats also tend to be stiff, this will lead to jarring your spine until an injury eventually occurs!
RZR seats are without a doubt, one of the most disliked stock seats on the market. The RZR pro seats are narrow, the edges are short, but at a harsh angle. The rigid nature of the seat absorbs almost none of the impact from the terrain. This is one of the most important features of a side by side seat. If you take nothing else away from what we’ve laid out here, listen to this: Your seats are protection for your body. The longer you protect your body, the longer you can spend out in your UTV!
Then last on our list of problem seats, the Honda Talon seats. These might have the fewest complaints, but it’s all still there. Narrow seats, vibration, impacts felt, joints left aching after your rides. The additional issue with Talon seats is the lack of stabilization inside of the side. You’re likely to slide, and when you slide you tense. We’re right back to those aching muscles!
So we have a solution! And it’s one that can conveniently be bought here on our site. Amped Off-road Seats. These are suspension seats, a network of flexible cords underneath the base allow your body to move naturally with the vehicle instead of jarring you against it. This greatly impacts your bones and joints, leaving you less sore after a rough drive.
The side of the seat, instead of being a harsh angle– like the RZR seats, are a more gentle sloping angle, and come up significantly higher on the bottom and further out on the sides. This mimics the effect of a racing seat, hugging your body gently with padded edges on every side.
The fabric is marine-grade, strong, durable and this seat is sealed against water better than any stock seat you’re going to find!
Like the comfy chair we talked about in the beginning, Amped Off-road has taken the time to lovingly craft a seat that takes care of you. The seats are sleek, cool-looking, padded, and protective. If you would take the time to find the perfect chair for your home, we think you should be finding the perfect chair to be between you and your SXS.

Hello To The Worlds first UTV Fire Suppression System, When you are out on your UTV or side by side there is only one thing you want to be thinking about: having a good time. Whether it’s just you out on your vehicle or you’re having a great time off-roading with your buddies and family, that’s what you want to be focused on. You want to be enjoying the thrill of riding on different terrains, enjoying the freedom being about to leave the road far behind you.
What you don’t want to be thinking about is the danger that your vehicle could potentially pose, and if you would be able to notice that danger before it was too late.
One of the most intense dangers you can face in your machine is the possibility of the engine catching on fire. There are many reasons why a UTV or Side by Side could catch on fire, but all of them lie in the mechanics of the vehicle. The true danger is that you might not notice the flames underneath or behind you with enough time to safely be able to exit your vehicle. In 2016 there was a string of accidents involving engine fires in UTV’s, and there were even deaths and major injuries associated with the incidents.
To keep you from needing to be constantly thinking about the threat of fire while you are out trying to enjoy your time, the smart people at PROTENG have come up with an Automatic Fire Suppression system to protect you and give you time to get out of your vehicle safely.
American Off-Roads Introduce a Fire Safety Product For UTV's & Side by Sides.
The issue with other fire suppression systems can be the need for human awareness. They require you to push a button, to know that something is on fire. Sometimes these systems require connections, batteries, and maintenance that defeats the point of having something that you can be sure will keep you safe regardless of your awareness.
The PROTENG UTV Automatic Fire Suppression HD system is a flexible tube that wraps around your engine, giving your 360 degrees of protection from flames anywhere in the engine compartment of your vehicle. This tube is full of FM-200 gas that when heated enough will combust and deploy 3-4 feet in all directions, both suppressing flames and giving your time to safely exit your vehicle without fear of harm. The pressure of the gas deploying creates a loud audible puff that lets you know something has set off the gas and alerts you to the need to leave your vehicle.
Best of all this FM-200 gas is non-corrosive, non-residue leaving, and environmentally clean. It’s gas that is used in inhalers used around the world every day. You don’t have to worry about the system to you have to save your life, ruining your engine in the process. Instead, you can rest easy knowing that you and your family and friends are safe, and your vehicle can be repaired without fear of the gas destroying it fully.
In the product information on this product, we have an installation guide and a how-to video that will show you how to install this floating system easily with all the needed items enclosed in the packaging of the system.
No longer will there be a need to hope that, in the event of some fire causing emergency, you notice flames from the corner of your eye, or catch the smell of burning early enough to get out of your vehicle.
Lots of the time when we talk about UTV’s/Side by Sides the first thing that people want to do is get out there and having a good time, but what you need to think about— probably much closer to the purchase of your vehicle then you want to, is what parts the manufacturer is putting into them.
