Again, for the kids. This is in addition to the 12V ATV.

 

36V and up to ~17mph. Can take up to 175lbs -- I am almost there! I am picking it up tonight. They normally go for ~$400 -- I am getting it for $150 gently used.

Dude! That's awesome! How is the ATV holding up?

It is holding up well. I have replaced a few small parts on it over time that are easy and cheap to find. The kids are riding it around now that it is nicer out. This should really kick things up a notch. I figure my 7 yr old daughter will get the hang of it -- I hope my 5 yr old son does too. The 3 yr old daughter is way too small for this thing.

Rinkus showed me a vid the other night of his 6 year old on his new go cart, the little fella races them, he was hitting 55 on the straight aways, amazing what no fear can do for you, not this hombre!

Yes. It is fun -- but it has been too wet to ride for the past few days. I am hoping the kids can take it for a spin again this weekend.
