Default Has anyone heard of Venom ATV's or Bikes?

I am looking to buy an inexpensive quad for my 6 year old and came across this dealer or company out of Las Vagas.
I am looking at the 70cc model and they state that the motor is of the Honda design and these sell for about $700.00 new and charge $200.00 for shipping.

I have never heard of it before, but the chinese ohv invasion has spawned many brands. Any internet link to pictures? I went to ebay and could not get anything from Venom. The most important thing with chinese quads is that you are mechanically inclined. Is the dealership established? Can he provide you with names of other happy customers? Most of these chinese copies have some affiliation with early honda engine copies. The price is right though. Have you looked into Raceway atv's?

I found out about them on EBay yesterday. I looked at the feedbacks. There are not that many feedbacks but they were good.
I went to their web site to see what info I could find on them and emailed them and they have given me a response. I went to www.venom.com
Take a look if you wish. They look like a new company and they state that they basicaly build a "Heinze 57" bike by using other manufactures parts.

I went to venomatv and got a page under construction, no help. I have searched ebay and cant even find a 70cc quad, let alone a venom. Could you give me the ebey item #? I'll go take a look.

Here is the item number 7135599906, by the way when I went to EBay to get the item number I noticed the web site adress I gave you was wrong. It is Venommotors.com sorry about that.

Looks pretty cool , I like the disc rear brake. I cant see how you could go wrong with it. price is definitely right. If you have any mechanical sense at all you should be alright. The 300 quad looks real cool too, a little pricey but not bad.

Thanks, you have me leaning this is the way to go.
You are right about the 300.
It is hard to find a used starter quad for the kids in this area.

I agree with mywifesquad. If you are mechanically inclined it is definitely a good buy. I took a look at the website and checked out the Venom Raptor 110 which looks amazingly like a Yamoto 110. I would recommend staying clear of the shaft drives because of the problems I've had so far. The 70 with the automatic CVT tranny and the chain drive looks like the best value.

actualy I just got one last week for my daughter. all in all not a bad quad for the money 850.00 shipped to my door (nor cal) I will try and give you a quick rundown. the only prob I had was I noticed a fuel leak and traced it down to the fuel filter (must have been cracked) not realy a big deal I went to my local shop and got a new one and was good to go. the suspension is basicly useless but from what I have seen most of these little quads are the same besides when the kid gets to where it can drive it fastenough to need suspension this quad will be too small anyway ( well thats my opinion ) . I am currently moddin the brake lever because my daughter could not reach the lever with out tankin her hand off the grip, which realy is no big deal cut and reweld (or have someone do it for you). I don't realy care for how the exaust is ran either hangs lower than the frame of the quad so I may change that but that is just me being a fabricator and all I always gota tweek things just a little I can't stand stock.LOL hey if you have any questions ask I will try and answer .. BTW I don't actualy know much about motorcycles or quads Iam more a 4x4 truck person but I will try and help.
