Default Grandsons TaoTao 1 year old.

My grandsons Tao Tao 110 is now 1 year old and all I can say is best $550 ever spent! No it is not a Honda but for the price has been a excellent little 4 wheeler and still going strong. No real problems to speak of other then a new battery and they do not keep it serviced like they should. They live 30 miles from me and being I have been riding and working on motorcycles none stop for 44 years and they know I will work on it for free.

Don't worry, I'm sure that in another year, your dreams of being a mechanic for the 45th year will come true.

I have all ready serviced it but only once in the past year. I keep telling his mother if I do not service if more it will not last. But not being service more do not get up set with the 4 wheeler as it will not be its fault.

I work daily on motorcycles and 4 wheelers. Besides other things I am working on right now I am working on a 2006 Honda Rancher. I have a machine shop in my basement and am building 3 Harley motor right now. I have as much as I do in special tools as my ride pictured below that I have ridden to and in all but 5 US states did Alaska 05. I bought the bike new and now pushing 100,000 miles and I am the only one that has worked on it except 2 times while on the road. Once in Alaska for a service ones because my tire had a slice in it.

My grandson, the rig (motorcycle and sidecar) and I.

That's just too awsome!
That a road king?
I saw a used gold wing that had a sidecar. Old and rusty and wanted 1500.
I wish I could have gotten it. I saw it at a local store. Apparently the guy that bought it had the same thing in mind that I did....Having his dog with him in the sidecar.

I just had a 97 Polaris sportsman 500 in to work on (thanks for the help OPT). Not one shiney grease nipple to be found. One of the rear driveshafts got so bad that the u-joint broke and took the yoke out. And he kept running it. Drove it out of his truck clanging and banging.
6 joints, a new shaft, and money spent, he's a happy camper..LOL

It is a 02 Ultra. Road kings do not come from the factory with a fairing just a windshield. The Hack is a 06 Harley. I am a member of the Georgia Sidecar Club. Even thaw I have owned the sidecar for 3 years and only put it on 6 months about over 4,000 miles put on it in that time. My rig is my only transportation. In my 44 years of none stop riding I have lived with out a cage but never with out 2 wheels no 3.
Thanks
Jeff
