I'm looking to purchase my 5 yr. old boy a quad for X-mas. I am leaning toward purchasing from Raceway as I have read that parts and service are reliable and they are a Sponsored site in this forum.
Wanted to know if anybody has purchased the 90 mini and if so how reliable it was and which of the China based companies makes it. I continue to read all of the "horror" stories posted but there are just as many that have enjoyed a "cheap" atv for the little ones.
The Honda 90 is too BIG and quite expensive at $2700.
He has beat the HELL out of an electric quad and handles that thing like a dream. He's ready for an upgrade...any suggestions?

ButterchurninMan,
Here's my $.02 cents. I bought my son this quad for his birthday back in June from Raceway. I placed my order online and had it within a few days (it's shipped via freight truck) from California to South Dakota. My son had about 20 or so hours on it and a front wheel bearing went out. I called up Raceway the next business day and they had a new bearing kit shipped out to me that day and I had it within 3 business days. The folks at Raceway were very friendly and did not question me once, other then to verify my shipping information for the part!
I don't know about you, but I didn't want to blow a lot of cash on my son's first quad. If I was rich (I am not) I would have bought a brand new name brand quad. Around where I live, even a 5 year old name brand quad for kids is still well over $1000. I made sure I chose a reputable dealer and since, as you said, Raceway is a sponsor on this site, and has nothing but positive reviews, I had no problem ordering from them. Will the next quad I buy for my son be an off-brand quad? Probably not. But by that point he will be a more experienced rider and ready for a more expensive quad.
In my opinion, if you choose to order an off-brand quad, I would highly recommend buying from Raceway. There are a few pics of his quad in my gallery.

Welcome to the forum ButterchurninMan! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
Ive got a 90cc mini utility quad from Raceway. Mine is a LonChin. It needed a lot of bolts loctited (like all things used off road) and a minor carb adjustment. (replace the stock fuel line and filter and put a NGK C7HSA in and youll be good to go) The little quad starts and runs great. Mine has only been ridden by adults over 200lbs and has been flipped, rolled and crashed more than Id like to admit. It keeps coming back for more.

If Safety is a concern you could consider a dune buggy or Go Kart. The center of gravity is lower so they do not flip as easily. Seat harnesses are also standard on Karts. We offer a nice selection visit our site at FamilyGoKarts.com
Good luck Shopping!
