    My Sons Mini Project - AKA Budget Build

    This is my sons Baja Storm(Typhoon Clone) we picked it up for $300, it was in great shape, it just needed a top end rebuild. This will be his second quad as i started him a small 70cc so he could get the feel for it and he tosses it around like a little toy now so its time to move up and my daughter will be taking it over. This quad will be for fun and trail riding only as far as i can see right know. Please feel free to add your suggestions and ideas from your experiences with your mini. Again im not building it for competition, just trying to get the family on quads without breaking the bank. Thanks to Ride1Rob for the info you gave me.

    My son wanted to change the color up so we painted it and added some decals.
