Made it out to the track today after getting his quad a few weeks ago. He has never ridden one, only made a few laps in the backyard night before we went to the track. He ran 3-4 sessions of about 8-12 laps each and each time ran until i saw him using his left hand on the thumb throttle because of thumb pump lol. He did awesome. At least i know the pilot jet is right or close to it in this POS 16mm stock carb.
Alot of people stopped by to let me know he was doing great for a 5 yr old, then i had to tell them he was still 3. Thanks to you guys for the help leading up to the first track outing. Now that i know he likes it, (had to fight him to get him in the truck to leave) we are ready to commit to more parts purchases (better chest protector, little better front shocks, tires, and neck brace)
I dont think i am going to put too much into this atv though, since in a year or 2 when hes ready to really race, i dont want to have to worry about finding make specific stuff for this 02 Scrambler.
If you seasoned dads say anything in the pictures that you can add suggestions on please feel free to, as far as the setup goes.
