    adding some room

    I need to send off my Daughters seat this early spring to add some foam to make the seat higher for more leg room... How do I know how much it needs??? Also, how tall does the aftermarket stems go ??She is so clumped over when she stands It makes her WAY out of porportion and really hard to stand and be agrressive like this ...

    I will most likely send her seat off to Verde power sports,they made her seat cover and now Ill have to have another one made for the new seat when its done...

    Give Rath a call for the stem. They have posted doing anti vib for the mini's so he might be some help. I think Hetrick does some too.

    She might be ! This is a little girl. She can only ride a mini quad. She has to make it fit this little girl. She can't race a bigger quad. This is my 2 cents!!


    Quad give Hetricks a call.

    She will ride it, but she cant race it ......Im not ready to put her thaere just yet


    Artic Cat Dad is totally correct on this one. She is only 11,she might not look like it but she is! Shes got enough power to keep her busy right now ,She just needs some leg room...

    So how do all these kids do it???!! Ive seen some of the kids who race Nationals on minis that are bigger kids


    I have no clue on the seat or how much foam to have added?? Anyone here done this before?

    OJ There are alot of huge kid these days on mini's. I've seen some 6' boys on mini's. It's a shame. I don't know how they do it. You ever ride your mini. It's hard.

    But you have to make the mini fit the rider. I'm sure that stroker engine is plenty fast for an 11 yr old girl.If you raise the seat with all foam it might be to soft. You may have to fill the first 2" or so with a hard surface material.Go with a higher stem, also higher bends in handlebars will help. Looks like it's time to spend more money on your mini.
