Default raptor 80?

on my last atv trip my lil bro came along. my dad let him ride his quad(the Arcitc Cat) and my dad was impressed by how good he was, so he decided to let him get a quad. hes 9 and weighs about 55 lbs, hes about 4 feet tall i think. would a raptor 80 be good for him? we are looking at a suitable quad that we can find for him under a grand. will i even be able to find a raptor 80 for him?(i dunno how expensive they are) . also, what are some pros and cons of the raptor 80? good power? throttle limiters ect. if a raptor 80 wouldnt be good what would? once he is grown out of his quad, he will most likely take my blaster, and i will inherit my dads banshee [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Raptor 80 is a great starter !
Getting one for a grand might be difficult, but are well worth the bucks in reliablity.
They have a throttle limiter and have a 3 speed auto-clutch transmission,
We will be selling ours here real soon due to getting a 350 next........

They are 80's, and have always been 80's. Before they were called the raptor 80, it was the badger 80.

Oops, beat me to it.

You may be thinking of a e-ton VIPER 90. Looks very similar.

what would be a good quad for my lil bro that we could prolly get for a grand or less? he would probably be able to handle an auto clutch. he just needs a quad that will last him till he grows big enough for my blaster. i know its quite a step-up, but i think he could handle the blaster in 2 years if he grows some. wat quad should i look for for him, kfx80? lt80?(thats all the kid-quad names i know)

thanks
