    Just a little mini quad. somthing for him to start out on to learn the basics. I'm thinking about getting him a 90cc & then turning the governor way down, I don't want him to out grow it in a year...

    i say the lt80. thats wat my lil bro staretd on. hes learned everything on it. i was impressed, he got on a blaster and rode it and didnt even stall it, of course he did take it slow and didnt ride in the powerband. but the lt80 has lots of power and potentail and makes it be one of, if not the best starter quad

    I say go with the lt80. He wont grow out of it for a good amount of time, and they are very reliable and easy to ride. We have a backup full start so if the battery dies you can still ride it and it has turf tamers on the rear which really added to stability. They are great quads and finding parts for them isnt hard
    Looking for any stock/aftermarket banshee parts....pm me

    I would recommend a quad with a manual gear box. I got my son a Kaysea 90 which has an automatic. The problem with the auto is that it has absolutely no engine braking, and worse yet, it picks up speed when descending a hill without any throttle. So they are forced to learn throttle control and braking control at the same time. He got the hang of it but it took several crashes before he did.
    I thought an automatic would be a better choice because it eliminated one thing to learn right off (shifting). But in hind sight, a gearbox is, IMO, better. My niece learned on a TRX90 and it worked out better because as she progressed, she graduated into a higher and faster gear.

    Just my $.02
