Guys he said he finally got her to wear the helmet and said he won't let her on unless she has one on. So all there is to do now is wait and hear how much fun they had together. His next post might be how do I get my daughter to let go of the quad and take off that silly helmet. Good job sticking to you guns UK.

well our beach trip was a bit of a disaster, the quad had been sat in my storage unit since xmas cos she wouldnt wear the helmet, my boy had had a couple of goes on his,
we loaded up, got there, i fired the little LT to give it a warm up, and realised i hadnt screwed the throttle back cos it had been sat there unused, I didnt have any tools atall with me so there was no way i could let her ride on a full throttle,
ill get her out on her own next week when my boy is back at school,
my boy had a rip around on his and managed to find every puddle and sh!tty bit on the strech of beach, i think hes gona grow up to be a MUDER,lol

Drive all that ways and have no tools to adjust the throttle screw??? That really sucks!!!!
On our '03 Pred-90, you can store small tools under its seat. If you can store tools somewhere on your quad or the other one your son drives, it might be worth hidding a few basic tools in their storage bins. We also store all sorts of screw drivers, vice grips, etc. under the seat of our car & van. One never knows when you need tools like this. This idea might work for you too. When it comes to kid's enjoyment, us adults learn very quickly to "not make a same mistake twice".
Hope these ideas help...

lol I am finding it kinda comical that the whole "no helmet no ride" thing is being brought up in almost every post...its been stated over and over again and UK has stated that he had/has no intentions of letting her ride without one over and over again
as far as the age thing goes if you think she is ready then give it a go.
I hope that your next visit to the beach is better then the last one.

ps...UK dont start off a post stating that a trip was a disaster when you are talking about letting your little girl ride for the first time...kinda scares people!! lol

Just interjecting a quicky..... My 12 year old was the same... I told him no helmet no ride.... Reluctantly he put it on...... 1 mile into the ride he flipped it on top of himself trying to climb a hill and his helmet has a huge gouge in it from where he hit it on a rock.... Had I not insisted on a helmet that day... who knows what may have happened... I get the ****** every time I think about that day ... Please do it rite man.
