Unreal, although I kinda suspected this. My kid's Taotao 110D is the same deal. Even with the shock adjusting collars set to it's 'softest' setting, they barely compress with my 225lb arse on the...

Awesome collection! I worked at a plant years ago that had several 3 wheeled Honda "Gyro" scooters (I think that's what they were called) as plant personnel movers. They were 2-stroke and the frame...

Oh it was a pain to get that tire to seat! I had to soap up the bead and tighten a strap around the circumference of the tire as I was adding air. Eventually it popped back on and has been holding...

Who knows. They may have been affiliated somehow with budgetatvs. At least I only lost $10 with my mishap :roll: . Overall I'm pleased with what I got. Runs like a top.

It was the same for me Allen. I didn't even own a helmet when my older brother got me a ~1970 Honda CT70 trail bike around 1982. I owned an Evil Knievel style 1970-80's helmet with my 1985 Yamaha...

All the hoopla about 'pick a Chinese quad for me' and you buy a used Kawi?!?! I'll take that POS off your hands for $1600. YOU DID OUTSTANDING! I would have grabbed that too.

It's a tiny ATV. The seat is just under 2ft off the ground. At 6ft, 225lbs I can get on it, but it ain't pretty . :oops: May be worth a few laughs.
