Well I know this sounds fickle but I'll explane.A few months back my wife had a mini stroke at the age of 43 and lost parcial sight in both eyes,althowe she is not legely blind she has poor vision.We like the earned reputation that raceway has and we thought that the jetmoto 150 woud be the best for her but we actually found a quad with a little more width and closed floor boards wich she feels would be a little more safer.So with that in mind we are going to get the roketa atv-56A.
I know its not a jetmoto but for now she thinks that will be the best for her.



But I promise when its my turn to purchase a new quad, I will get the jetmoto 250!</end quote></div>

Good to hear your wife is doing good enough to want to ride a quad kczukiman. I would want her on the quad SHE felt the safest on too. I liked the floorboards on the roketa. And as funny as drum brakes on chinese quads are. (Keep water away from them) I would guess she will probably do most of her braking with the rear brake anyway.

Hello all, I'm new to this club and I joined to get some help with my brand new Hi-Bird 250 Trail Hammer. I bought it online at Ebay and was very happy with the price, however , I received it on July 26 and haven't been able to run a full tank of gas through it yet! It ran great for 2 short trips to my food plots and on the 3rd trip out, it left me stranded in the woods 3 miles deep and would not start. It would turn over but no spark. After about 20 minutes, it started and would run about 5 minutes and cut off again. I contacted MotorXtremes and they were quick to tell me it was the coil or CDI. I have been waiting since the beginning of August for my parts and have not received them yet. 2 questions..... first, does this sound like a coil or CDI? 2nd , where can I order parts other than MotorXtremes? I have been reading your post and you seem to be happy with your Hi-Bird. I am new to ATV's, I'm 45 and I hunt a lot and just don't feel like walking so much anymore. we have almost 5,000 acres of river bottom land, great hunting and I'm finding out, Great riding too! I hope to get some good use from this ATV. It came with a winch also, so I'm not afraid of any area on our property. I'm about to have a fit to ride this thing but not happy with the customer responce. Any help you can offer, I would appreciate it. I'm also glad to hear your wife is doing well. Thanks!

 

Zukikick92, i would look at the gas cap to see if there is a hole in the rubber seal. If the cap is not venting this same symtoms will happen, I have fought with this same thing with one of my Jetmotos and it's fustrating once you find out such a simple fix could have got you back on your way!

 

Thanks so much for your responce. The gas cap does have some kind of vent or valve in it. Could that be clogged? It's brand new and that would be awesome if this will fix it. But here is a good question: The ATV came with a small tool bag and when it died in the woods, I took the spark plug out and checked for spark and it had none. Could this be caused by the gas cap not venting properly? Thanks again for your help!!!

 

Nope, if you had no spark then it does sound like the CDI or bad connection somewhere!

the very first thing is replace the spark plug with a ngk or demso, then let us know if this helps,
