Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.
Ive seen cobra 50's run against modded drx 50's and there is no comparasin, Cobra's are the dominant 50.
Ken,
If you can take care of a CVT clutch you shouldn't have any problem with a Cobra 50. (Anything that spins 16000 RPM should take a bit more maintance). If you have any questions or just want to hear the pros and cons give me a call. I will be glad to help you anyway I can.

Ken are you comeing to lakeland next weekend if so your boy can run mine to see if he likes it, but be prepared to use your 50 for a paper weight because he wont want to get back on it. (lol)

Let us know how the review goes??
Well its been about 4hrs since he got of the cobra 50 and hasnt stopped smiling or talking about it.
there is a lerning curve to riding one but he got to feel some of the power.
Although i am not allowed to talk to swede anymore,she says i spend enough money without his help.
All kidding aside even she can see how good and safe the cobra is.
Their will be a cobra in the jolly garage later this year if we make the decision to start running some bigger races.
Thanks for the ride Swede

i too am thinking about getting a 70 with the auto tranny...is there any problems associated with this machine?
Local race organization won't let us use a manual clutch in the mini classes
Also, how would a 70 run against a built trx125?
thanks,
Kelly
The auto clutches hold up alot better with kids that can shift. If your kid doesn't know how to shift you'r better off going with the manual clutch. I would have a good talk with the local series and ask them why they won't allow a production quad to run and explain that it is a stock factory quad. As far as comparing to a built 125 with the same rider on both I think it would be close if not in favor of the Cobra a little.

Performance-wise, i figured that the 70 would blow the 125 away
