I recently bought this fully automatic 70cc from evosales for my 6 and 8 yo daughters to learn on http://www.evosales.com/pd_atv.cfm and although the bike itself is OK, I'm really disappointed in the power. Being a full automatic seems to sap all of the power from it.

Now that the girls have a hang of it, I want to buy my 8YO the 110CC that better fits her size. http://www.evosales.com/pd_110cc.cfm it is a 4sp clutchless automatic.

Not counting the increase in engine size, will going to the clutchless 4 speed will be a significant power increase over the fully automatic?

I really don't want to underbuy, but than again, I don't think the 8YO big enough for a 150cc.

Would you recommend this 110 for a 65lb 8YO?

 

hard to say, really, but i can tell you that my boys have a couple of fairly quick 70cc race quads (2-strokes) with all the goodies (most anyways) and they still get a kick out of riding our fairly stock 110 (only suspension mods). they are 9 and 11 yo and my oldest weighs only 85 soaking wet.

 

I would stay with the automatic because teaching them how to shift isn't going to be an easy task. Look for ways to get more power out of unit. Is there any kind of power limiter on this ATV? Finding a rear sprocket with a few extra teeth will give it a lot more punch.

 

There is the govenor that most these little ones have and I ooked for a larger rear sprocket but couldn't locate a suitable one in locale stock.

Thanks fo rthe advice.

 

IT's tough to find sprockets and most of the time you'll have to compromise. I look at a lot of different sprockets on other atv's and dirtbikes before finding one the was close to my Kazuma. Then ordered one from http://www.sprocketspecialists2.com and drilled new holes to match my bolt pattern. One thing I did find is move to a lighter chain gave it more power. I know use a Honda CT 70 sprocket on the front and modified a pw80 sprocket for the rear. I'm very happy with the results.
