Sumoto 200 Cyclone (atv) - First Ride

[Jim]

I just got a new atv, details on unpacking and assembling can be found here:

I took it out for the first ride today, just running it around at home...

I wanted to see if it would climb this pile it did, but I was going to slow and high centered it (there is a bigger pile on the other side I didn't want to hit), I was able to back off the pile though.

I went through this mud a few times, then I ended up going through it slower, which was a bad idea

Luckily help wasn't far off...

The recovery operation went smoothly

Next up is to build a bit of a jump... It probably won't be too big just yet since I'm still new to atv's...

This quads a lot of fun, good for stirring up the mud.

When it comes to support vehicles you don't screw around!

When it comes to mud, lean way back and gas it.

Yeah :P

Yeah about the mud, I went through it slow that time cause I was coming around something, but the advice is noted and appreciated... It was no problem as long as I had some momentum on my side, I just was a bit slow that time.

OoOo someone else that likes to get muddy! WEEE! I love the dump truck. hahaha.

Thanks, yeah the dump truck does a great job :)

Got a little video together of this thing, keep in mind I'm new to atv's and that I don't really like shoveling... That "jump" will probably grow over time..

A more aggressive set of tires will also make a huge difference. Of course, with a 200 you don't want to get too agressive since the motor won't be able to turn them.

That atv looks Arizona road-ready/legal.
