get anything but an eton. my neighbor got one and it breaks all the time. the steering failed, so he got it replaced and it failed again almost causing injury[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

that guys neighbor is mine to. all three of us are neighbors. the kid who owns the Eton just got it back from the shop because his quad wouldn’t start. Then he took it up the road once and only once and on his way down the kick start flung down at his leg. now you have to pyre the kick start back into place and when you go to use the electric start it grips the kick start and throws it down. And it won’t start again. Just got worse. Get a Honda 90.

hey snowbuster, it wasn't just the kickstarter causing the problems. his whole transmission is screwed up.

I have a eton 40 that my 4 year old son rides he is now five and fits it very nice he rides it just about anywhere I will take him the only problem I have ever had was a little dirt in the carburator so the float stuck but has been a very fun quad for my boy

I debated on buying the eton viper 50 for my daughter, but after seeing it in person and hearing the problems people have had with them, I decided to buy her the Polaris Scrambler 50. Its alot bigger then the eton, cost almost twice as much, but it has been a solid quad. plus its fun for anyone to ride, including me and I am 5'11 240lbs and I can ride a wheelie 400 feet or more. My daughter is 5 and she does real well on it too. and I have started my 2 year old riding it.
