Any reviews of the 07 Jetmoto 150?
#51
Saturday we took the quads out riding. The Blue 150 ran solid all day and the 13 year old had a ball on it! The Red 150 gave us problems, seems like when going up a hill it would flood out! Then cranking it the battery soon wore out! After that I got the feeling they do not run to well on a dead battery even after you jump start it! Out there I did turn the carb side ways and pull the Float bowl off and adjusted the Float. It took a couple times but I think it?s pretty good now as the motor ran much better for a time! I did not get to spend much time on the 150's at all but the little I did ride the Blue one I was real impressed with it over all. The Suspension was great and it pulled me up the short hill you will see in the video from stopped at the bottom with no problem!
Yesterday I charged up the Red 150 battery and today I fired it up and ran it for about a 1/2 hour or so and it ran great, it even out ran the Blue 150 today which is a first. So apparently the float adjustment I did Sat. fixed the running problem I had been fighting with. It seems to idle nice and smooth and no hesitation upon giving the throttle like it had before!
Just a note we have noticed about the transmission shifting is that they do not slide into gear (Forward and Reveres) smoothly, most of the time you need to rev the motor a bit or rocking the quad front to back seems to help. It's not a big deal and once you get the feel of it it's not hard to do. Once it's in gear it feels real solid and the CVT works great!
I hope someone here is getting something from me going on and on about my experience with the Jetmotos, if not oh well!
Here is a Video I shot that shows the 150's on my trailer but I did not get any 150's in action this weekend! Perhaps next weekend I will get some more footage of the 150's.

Cant wait to see it!! My jet 250 will be in next Tuesday, and my 150 I hope will ship out by the end of next week.. I guess I called at a bad time, because they where sold out of the 150's ...

I have tried several times to upload a higher res (20mb) video but it will not upload so I tried a lower one and it took!
Our 150 Outing
We had a great time and I was real impressed with this little quad. Even me at 6'1" and 230lbs it was a blast and hauled me along with ease even up some pretty steep hills. We at times were in some real rough terrain with big rocks and steep hills and the 150's climbed right up them. Again I will say there is no better 150 out there. We do have a slight dead spot at about 1/4 way up the throddle on both machines that I need to still figure out. And we have a rattle on both of them (only as your going faster) and for the life of me I can't seem to locate it.
IMHO If your looking the buy a different Chinese 150 do yourself a favor and spend a few extra bucks and get the Jetmoto with the better suspension, hight and also better looking.

If you have a dead spot at about 1/4 into the throttle you may have to adjust the needle clip. This controls throttle from idle up to about 3/4. If you have a dead spot it may be too lean. By lowering the clip it will richen that part of the circuit up.

Thanks, I will have to try it!
