Video of my little girl
Hahah, hey guys, check this out.
Here is my 4 year old, Gracie. The little squirt is riding her big sisters 110. She can't even reach the pegs with both feet at the same time, and only weights 32lbs....but I think she is doing pretty well.

Way cool! :YEAH
Have some footage on my 4 year old son riding his E-Ton Viper 50, can't reach any of the footpegs yet, but that doesn't stop him.
The earlier they learn, the better.

Re: Video of my little girl
Thanks guys....my mission for next summer is to get her to do a couple wheelies on her 50. She has already "crashed" it twice, but she's not scared to keep going.
Her first crash was a few days after she got it, I let her shift into 2nd gear. Well she liked how much faster it went, but didn't quite realize you should slow down when you turn. She rolled it over on the first corner she went around.
The 2nd crash was right after I made them a little trail through the bushes. She decided to hit it wide open. There were rocks and bumps and they through her off and the quad went into my parents bird bath....haha.
Many people would consider this bad parenting, but I watch her close and never have her do anything I don't think she can do. As Raid said, the earlier they learn, the better. I think it's a real confidence booster for kids to push themselves and accomplish things.
As for the video cutting out at 20 seconds....it's actually supposed to be 44 or something like that. I don't know what happened but I'm re-uploading it as we speak so hopefully the rest will work. It's just more donuts, but she really gets it whipping around pretty good...haha. So download it again if you want to see. Thanks for pointing that out Drew.

That's sweet! It's working now! Tell her I said "GREAT JOB!!"
I want that graphic at the beginning in stickers. Did you make that?
How come we never see you screwing off on that 110? And don't give me that crap about your woman telling you not to touch it, cause last I knew, you were the man of the house.

And yes, I made that graphic....two nights ago actually.
I'm deff impressed with that little runt....She first drove a quad when she was 2 years old. Back when we had the Polaris 90...She could even drive my 400ex at that age if I ran the clutch to get it going...once under way she could give it enough gas to keep it going.
Wheelies next year for sure.

She looks good and confident, and at this rate, she will be on the top of her game at 10!!! Can't wait for the next video.

Re: Video of my little girl
Thanks guys (and girls)....she's really excited to have her own little video clip on the internet and smiles whenever she sees it.
zx636skiv, I bought 2 little quads from www.kidatvs.com . The dude is real good to work with, and the prices are great with the free shipping. I got a bit of a deal on them, but his prices are way below retail either way.
They seem to be decent little quads. The 110 (as seen in the vid) is good for a kid who is just starting out, or one who just wants to ride around without getting too crazy. It has decent power and speed, but the suspension is pretty sucky. Great for what the kids use it for though in our case. It's a 3-speed w/reverse.
The 50 is much of the same only 1/2 the size. It's a 3 speed (no reverse), and it's great for the 4 year old. She can ride the 110 no problem, but can't reach the pegs so it's no ideal or completely safe. We'll probably have her step up to one of that size when she gets a little older, but in the meantime it's good to have her on a quad she can reach all of the controls for, and is small enough in size for her to handle. It moves right along, but again, the suspension sucks. Still is fine for her case though.
I have a blast on the 50...that thing is so much fun...needs front brakes though as it only has one for the rear.
As for the helmet....It's made by M2R. It fits her pretty well but is still a little big. You can check them out though.
