They do look good!
My brother is pushing me hard to buy used Yamaha (90-03) Warrior's in the same price range ($2000.) like he has instaed of a Chinese Quad. To be honest I have not like the looks of the Warriors we have seen. They do seem to be built better " more refined" then the Chinese models I have seen and being a 350 would have more power, most have had repair work recently done which I am not sure if this is a good or bad thing!? But I keep pulling up pics of the Jetmoto 250 and thinking thats more my type kind of bare bones little rough and not so flashy.

Tell me I won't live to regret buying these Jetmotos cus he will remind me all the time if they are not good units! I wish we could get a comparison to a big 4 quad just to help me decide!

let me just say i do like my jm125 i bought for my son.There really isnt anything out there in this isze for the money.So far im happy with this quad.As far as the comparision of the new 250 vs the honda 250ex i would say for sure there not even close.I have a 05 250ex and unless jm has improved on quality and performance 300% i would say the honda is by far a all around better machine.In fact the honda salesman told me tht untill 06 when they went to the sport clutch this was the best sport quad out there.honda quality is great.Just my opinion since i own both machines.

Just took my wife over to the local Chinese ATV dealer and let her sit on the 150's. She liked it but was not sure if she would like the taller 07's. I told her the 07's have a wider tire stance and would be more stable. So she agreed and stated she would rather have new atv's then the used. So that swings the vote back to the Jetmotos! I think we will get two 07 250's and one 07 150!
Now we just need the snow to stop, 07's to get in and tax returns![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]

Honda quality is definity the goal Jetmoto has set for itself. It it there yet? I dont know but its getting closer. I do hope your not comparing the 125 power to your 250 Honda. I have a 125 Jetmoto, and it cant even stay in the same time zone as the 200 Jetmoto. The 250 Jetmoto I tested/abused(yes I did try to break it) needed a lot of improvements, and its getting all of them. Even as it was it would walk away from the 200. The rouger the terrain was, the farther ahead it got. I plan on hunting Honda 250EX's when I get mine.

Tell me are the wheels metal or aluminum? I'm not too big on the front bumper it looks heavy! The wife and kids like the looks of the 07's! I really like the Jetmoto Logo on the top picture of the 250 but not to big on the sticker on the tank! I think it would look tons better with the other logo on it!

Im pretty sure the wheels are steel. Only some of the pics show the correct tires also. The ones that resemble hole shots are the correct tires. I think the bumper is aluminum so it shouldnt be heavy.

No ,im not comparing to my jm125.Just the quality factor.Jetmoto quality vs honda in my opinion.My jetmoto frame paint will almost wipe off,welds look bad will they hold so far so good,nuts and bolts bad lousy threads,wire connections not so good ,wheels are steel with very litle paint,seat foam and cover are not up to honda quality.Im not saying this is bad quad at all just saying jetmoto would have to come a long way in one year to say it compares to a honda 250ex.

I am interested in one of these myself, but have a few questions. If you check the Jetmoto site here: http://www.jetmotousa.com/showcase/v...product_id=66# it shows a few differences from what Raceway lists for specs. A 5 speed and 47" wheelbase are the biggest. Does anyone know for sure what the trans is and what the shift pattern is? I am not a fan of the "non standard" shifting that some of the Chinese offerings have. Also, I have seen at least three different tire treads in pictures. What tire are they shipping with from Raceway?

Thanks,
Shawn
