we are thinking about getting a sportsman or scrambler 90 for my little brouther and sister one is 10 and the other is 12 the 12 year old is small for her age and was wundering if these are amy good in the mud and on trails or if they should get somethin bigger any help would be aprciated

 

I bought a Scrambler 90 for my 9 year old son about 4 months ago and have had no major complaints so far. We do a lot of trail ridding and some mud slinging. I think that it is a good youth quad.

 

bought the Scrambler 50 and it keeps-up just fine on the trails.
the two-stroke power provides more than enough power for a 50cc.

mud? don't know.

Not to knock the Polaris minis but when I went shopping for a new quad for my son(he was 9 at the time)We looked at all of the mini s and wee ended up with a 125 Yamahaa Breeze it was a few hundred more but it is 4 stroke,automatic,reverse andd aa real head light.Tthe otherr onee weee liked wass The Bombardier 90 it was 4 stroke too but no reverse or lights(he liked the color better).This Breeze has been the best quad I have it is big enough for the adults yet small enoughh for the little guys.Cody rides this on any trail I take mine on and lots of places most guys wont go.

 

I'd take them to the local dealers and see which ones fit them the best. I got my then 3 yr old daughter an LT 50 for Christmas after taking her and letting her sit on different makes. I was leaning towards the Polaris 50, but she is small for her age and the Polaris was just too big for her. The Suzuki fits her good and I figure that she should get from 3 - 4 years of riding on it before she's too big. My neice got an SP 90 from Santa as well, she's still 7 and while she is on the small side of being a perfect fit, she was too big for the 50's and would have outgrown one in a year.

Just from my experiences, with them being 10 and 12 that they should fit the Yamaha Breeze good enough. I know your not supposed to consider letting them 'grow into it', but with a purchase this big you should consider how long they will be able to ride one of the 90's before their knees get in the way.

any of the e-ton made quads (including polaris) don't handle mud very well, and have barely any kind of water proofing.
