Non-Slip ATV Rack Tray
Conventional ATV racks are great for hauling bulky loads but not for carrying small tools, which can fall between the cross bars and scratch the ATV's body or get lost. And there's no way to take a dog along with you. This new ATV "rack tray" mounts over the existing racks to provide a solid, yet "catchy" surface that solves those problems.
  The rack tray consists of a weatherproof, formed ABS thick plastic frame fitted around pieces of Astroturf carpet. One tray fits on front and one on back. Both trays simply attach with plastic zip ties.
  "The Astroturf keeps cargo from sliding around and also makes it more comfortable for a dog or even an extra passenger to ride along. The dog has a base to sink its paws into and hang on," says inventor Roger Kuntz. "Also, it protects the ATV body and racks from abrasion and damage."
  Kuntz says he came up with the idea because he often wants to haul tools or his dog on his ATV. "In the past, every time I bought an ATV I would cut out a wooden board and lay it on top of the ATV rack, then glue a section of carpet to it."
  Kuntz says he's willing to build rack trays for others if there's enough interest. "It costs a lot to develop a mold so I'd need multiple orders before I can go into production," he notes.
  He says the units would sell for $69.95 including S&H.
