    I purchased this quad for my daughter, something she can learn on and grow into. It's a nice quad, plenty of power for her to learn how to handle.

  • Very good quality and reliable!!!
    By Richard Posio (I am an Owner) on Apr 18, 2011

    I have had this quad for over a year now and for the money it is a great first quad.

    I have rode this quad hard and over about everything including snow and it is fun! Sure it is not the fastest on the block but more that fast enough for the trails. Trouble free and is a real deal ...

    Great suspension that is adjustable but could use a wider stance for tight turns. Wheel spacers solve that!
