Chinese ATV's Stink!!!
 
Anyone else have issues with storing their Chinese ATV indoors? I store my sons 125cc in my garage along with my UTV, lawnmower, and several other gas yard tools. I have never had an issue with any vapors or gas smells before. Now that I am storing the Chinese ATV in my garage the smell is almost unbearable, it's a strong carbon smell. Almost like rear differential fluid smells when its old. The bike has no oil or gas leaks and maybe 30 hours on it, I had a friend suggest that it may be the rubber that the tires are made from. Any ideas :confused::confused::confused::confused::confused: :confused:

a lot of times the Chinese manufacturers run a little gas through them to make sure they run and then they let it sit and get old. try cleaning the carb and rinsing out the tank. Should help. if not then maybe your friends right and try replacing the tires.

Well try it anyway, it doesn't happen with all of them, just on occasion. if it doesn't work then idk... Hope you figure it out.

We have the 110cc ATV and havent had any of the issues you are having. Sounds like you have a loose seal somewhere.....
