I've got bad valve seals, I need new piston rings, Need a new rear shock, Bearing carrier is almost shot, Clarke Tank has a small leak, brake pads are bad, need a new exhaust, got a small oil leak, I think i need a new carb soon...

Man this sux, im going to be spending alot of money here soon!

Yea its the 250x, lol

I think i'm going to sell it after I get it all fixed. I've been riding bigger quads and its not as fun de-grading down to smaller quads...I should just rough it out and wait till im 16 to race...

Im not sure yet, i couldn't imagine going that long without racing...

Yes, but just not in that order:D Seriously though, you will find in life if something goes wrong, brace yourself b/c it's all going wrong!

It does suck you are going to have to dump a lot of money into the thing. But you have to pay to play!

I hear ya man....though it usually goes like this for me.

I need new rear pads, so as I am changing them, I look at the rotor....hmmm looks warped, lots of wear.:( Then I look the fluid level...low...hmmm, is that a cut in my line thats leaking fluid...sheesh, the fluid seems to be running down to my axle....gosh it looks pretty loose..........dang, are my hubs loose too?

Catch my drift man!?:o :p

Why in the world would you need a new carb? A few pieces may wear out, but not the entire carb. Just replace those few pieces, and you're good to go.
