Got it together

Today, thought I was just going to unpack the crate... But.... I couldnt stop..

Typing with blue loctite stained fingers... I'm reporting that assembly went quite well.. Only took about 2 and a 1/2 hours. Its a very comfortable sized atv for an adult.

The engine fired up quite nicely on the first attempt. Engine was stamped with 164FML, so now I have 3 Chinese engines... A 164, 163 and a 167.
Only had to adjust the idle down a bit...

I have absolutely no experience with atv's and to be honest.. this one is for my girlfriend.. I rode an atv for the first time today.. Personally I prefer two wheels and Chris... as Ambassador said.. freedom from trailers and crossing small bridges like you did on Trubattle's bike in the video, may be a better choice, if you get an enduro that can be plated.

Savage, I am such a newbie to atv's that I have to look up knuckles for front arms.. They sound good.. Whatever they are.. Sounds like Bruce from EjCycles.. might be able to help me out..

If anyone is in the market for an atv and does not have a brick and mortar dealer nearby... I would recommend digikool.net. Then check with Bruce at ejcycles or Tom at RPM for any mods or parts you may need.

Anyhow. So far so good.
