Looks like the 250 is overall a step up from the 150... is it torque-y enough to pull the front wheels up? I'm not a top speed kinda guy, but like the low end power...

 

Yes, the 250 will! See my first video:

cool! were you using your body to shift the weight at all for that or is that all motor then? and is that w/ the 15 tooth gear or any other changes?

 

With the 14 tooth and the jet kit they send you, it will pull the wheels off the ground from a roll with full throttle. That is, after you are already moving 1-2 mph with the clutch already engaged it can pop a wheelie on flat ground. On inclines you have to be carefull or you can flip it over backwards. I was riding a wheelie off the top of a steep 7' hill while leaning on the front handlebars. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I think it's got plenty of power for me. Top speed is already a little scary for me (I'm a wuss.)

I toed the front tires in slightly (they were toed out from the factory) and put a bigger air filter on, but that is about it. I've actually not had any problems with water yet. I almost got stuck in 5-6" deep muddy water yesterday and just pushed a little more throttle for the wheels to break free and it pulled itself right through. I was worried I just soaked my intake because of the water flying around, but it was totally dry. I was only going 10mph or so when I splashed in, and 5-10 going out. I had a problem with the seat not wanting to really hold on tight, and I played with the front clip and the rear bar that the snap goes onto and it is rock solid now. A little hard to put on, but I can't get it off easily, so I'm good. I also put a 3/4" flat washer under the right rear hub bolt as shown here: http://myjetmotos.8k.com/photo2.html Everything is nice and snug now. I'm pretty dern impressed with this quad!

That first video was with the 17t front, it's much easier now with the 14t. I would not call the 250 a power house but it has enough power to have some fun with.

 

I agree. It sounds like it has a lot more power than it actually does. haha

I dropped the presure to 3.5psi yesterday and my top speed dropped to 41mph. =/

I'm going back up. I think 5 psi front and maybe 6 in the back =D

Nice video! You seem to be getting a lot of fun for the dollar out of the Jetmotos. How are they holding up? I have been looking for my wife, something that is automatic and will fit a 5' rider comfortably. So the Jetmoto 150 has caught some interest.
