Default opinions on spacers for Kazuma

My son has a 110 Falcon, the atv runs amazing but doesn't feel all that stable.

I have done a search and found a company or 2 that sells spacers but before I spend a couple hundred bucks for 4 spacers I am curious to see if the change in handling is dramatic?

This atv has been fair more reliable and easy to work on then my kawasaki bayou

Granted I beat the bayou a bit more

things to consider: is he too big for the quad? is it time to graduate to something with a larger chassis? the reason i ask is this, if he is "too big" for the quad, that'll throw the center of gravity off on the machine thus making it top heavy. if he is just right for the quad and will ride it another 2-3 yrs, then consider the spacers or possibly a lower profile tire rather than the rounder ones. did you teach him how to maneuver his weight on the seat during turns and what not? that'll help a lot itself.

He definitly isn't to big. He is a small 8 year old so he will be on this for awhile. I keep the governor pretty low as he learns to maneuver on it.

I also read about flipping the wheels around?

that depends on brake caliper positioning if equipped. gotta watch out for valve stem location or it could hit calipers. but yeah, that's possible on some wheels.
