i am interested in buying this for my 8 yr old son as his first quad. i know they sell new for 2800 new and i can get it for 1100 and it is in decent shape too. my first real bike was an 86 trx70 and it was bulletproof. are they still that way and easy enough for him to learn on? i want to keep it and in a couple years give it to my younger son who is now three so i want it to last. any comments from anyone who owns/has owned one for his/her kids or any kids who now own, has owned or has ridden one would be very helpful.

 

Rock solid machine! To big for the really tiny kids, but a great choice for older/larger pre-teens.

 

Hondas are great machines to learn on and they will last a long time. I still enjoy riding the little ATC 70s.

 

great! thanks for your replies! i will try to pick it up this weekend. the guy also has a suzuki 50cc so i will get that for my younger son. he is still too young, but i have to get him his own if i get the older boy one. you know how it goes. im sure they will still find something to fight over but at least they are both the same color. when i was his age my dad took me and and my brother to a honda shop. i got a 4 wheeler and my brother got an etch-a-sketch. i think it still really pisses him off. LOL. i dont want to create the same problems for my kids. thanks guys.
