Ok,I know I'am going to get some wierd reactions to this but
I'm a newbie to quads. I'm going to get a cannibal.....the funny thing is I'm only 14. Yah Yah I know about the laws that is why somebody's going to buy it 4 me. Does the ownerz manual include ALL PROCEDURES OF HOW TO DO MAINTENANCE??? Is there a manual I can buy that does show all that kinda stuff? What fuel to use where the oil filter is blah blah blah ect ect. What probs should I look for that the cannibal may have?? Is red the ONLY color they come in? When I go to buy one is my mom going to have to say "Well i'm buying this for my husband because hes a uh racer?" What I mean is can you only buy them if "they" know it's for competition use? Or is it like going to buy a Honda they dont care whos it for as long as its not for a kid??

The owners manual does a good job of detailing all the maintenance procedures, where filters are, how to change oils, etc. I would not have your mom mention it's for someone under 16, the dealer does not need to know. Use the highest octane pump gas you can find, I run 93 but 93 may not be available where you are at. Red is the only color the Cannibal comes in. I just have one question, do you already have experience on quads? This machine deserves alot of respect because you can get seriously hurt if you don't respect this quad!!

I dont even know how to drive quads yet,I just pin the throttle and hope for the best.......................NOT!! Yes,I have some experience with quads I've ridden quite a few including a Raptor. Well,im a big 14 year old too I'm 5'10 146 lbs. I give the cannibal MUCH respect.....when it comes home I'm going to bow down to it,kiss the front bumper and chant "All hail to Cannondale" hmmmmmm THAT RIMES!!
So I should just use premium fuel with high octane?

Yes, run the highest pump gas octane you have available in your area.
