Added a new quad to the arsenal this weekend. Got my 3 year old a new Raptor 660 for his b-day. Have to get some pics up later. He has a little trouble reaching but seemed to handle it ok...save hitting my house, my truck, my neighbor's house and my neighbors truck. Really struggles with the reverse.

Practice is supposed to make perfect, right? Then why can't my wife drive after 16 years? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img] [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

You sound like a damn moron. I waited till my kid was 6 before putting him on a 660.

What's the matter with people these days?

At first I thought youve got to be kidding! But after thinking about it I decided its a great idea. Think of all the quads you wont have to buy as your son grows up? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I don't see what the big deal is. As long as he can reach all the controls and knows how to work them, which I'm assuming by the fact he was running it over the weekend he does, he should be okay as long as he takes it easy over the first couple of days.

Might want to get him away from the houses and cars though before he starts opening it up though, just in case...

Shoot, I had him out of low gear within an hour.

In his defense, I just don't think he weighs enough to get the front to stick. A lot of his problem was the front would push out in turns.

At first I thought this guy was an idiot for letting his 3 year old ride a 660. But now that you bring this up, it doesn't sound like a bad idea. A lot of money can be saved here.

Good thing you put him on something slow first. Now if you would have put him on something with real power then I'd think you were an idiot. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Ha Ha. They don't really have a "tweener". Least I couldn't find one. They have the little ones and the bigger ones. He outgrew his first one. Wouldn't ride is because it was too slow. Just thought his new one looked pretty cool even though I'm not a Yamaha guy.

I bet if you tied some cement blocks to his *** he'd have better luck on the corners. And the body wouldn't be found after he kills himself on it and you have to toss him into the nearest river.

I'm make him eat a second helping of spinach and wear his helmet. I think he'll be all right. Sheesh. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]
