Looking at the new Polaris 110 efi but its pricey Just go buy a new one , if your lookin that new , you won’t find a whole lot of deals . They hold they’re value like 120 sleds and kids dirt bikes . You’ll sell it for close to what you paid for it . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Usedtoskidoo Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 I have a 90 that needs work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigfish Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 I have a couple of them. They were being saved for the grandkids, but they have no place to store them (city kids) They are Yamaha Moto4's. One is an 80cc and the other is a 100 cc. Both are shaft drive with electric start I will check again to see if they want them, but they have been sitting here for 2 years now, and i'd like them gone. In the pic they are the yellow and blue ones 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricked-Toys Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 How old are the kids? We started ours out on a Suzuki 50, but they out grow that. Then we got a 250 Ozark, the Ozark has a 5 speed tran, so you can put it into 2nd gear and let them go and it will only go so fast. As they get older the gears go up. Have had the bike for 11 years now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clayfan Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Please do not call them a "bike" Does that Ozark have 2 wheels and you have to balance it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't be afraid to look at Eton atvs. They are not cheap Chinese atvs but rather ones who are built for Polaris and Suzuki, and maybe more? My son had one for 2 years and it worked flawlessly, plus it had a ton of safety features the others didn't have. I purchased it for around $1200 and sold it for that 2 years later. Definitely worth checking out, unless you like paying an extra grand or 2 just to have Polaris or Suzuki written on it. https://www.kijiji.ca/b-atv/canada/e+ton/c311l0a259 http://etonamerica.com/ Parts are also easily obtainable, which is a plus.

Stoney Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Curious, why a 4 wheeler vs a bike? This will be my kids (5 & 4) first year on dirt bikes, it is what I started on & personally think is a better choice to learn how to ride an off road vehicle. Was not until I was much older that any of us considered 4 wheelers..... they only positive thing I remember about them was winter riding (not on OFSC trails - there were not any in Windsor). I agree as well about the prices.....kids stuff like this sells easy and for not much less, if at all, than what you will pay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be but who cares, they are a great working atv, plus if Polaris and Suzuki use them to build theirs, that says something right there. Like I mentioned earlier, they have a ton of safety features on them that the others don't, including Polaris and Suzuki who they build them for. I forget all them but they came with a tether, a horn, a rev limiter box (can set max speed) full foot wells, won't start unless brake is applied, etc, etc, etc. I wouldn't have purchased one if I thought they were junk.

Fyi park to park passes are now good for eastern ontario trail riders. Good to see network growing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is good news, but unfortunately I no longer own atvs. Truthfully, there has been a few times that I have missed them, but once I think about storage, upkeep, insurance, trail passes, transporting them, etc, that usually leaves me pretty quickly. If I lived out in the country or had better access to the trails, that would likely differ, but just like the dirt bike I owned, it just wasn't feasible.

We drive ours off our property and can go anywhere in Parry Sound with them. Trails are a bonus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We use to be able to drive our's right from our trailer out to the trails but unfortunately, not everyone had common sense. Now, if you want to ride, you have to go out to the front gate (about 2kms) and leave from there. One atv has already been stolen from this spot and if memory serves, I think his replacement is the only quad there now? There was, at one time, about 10-15 of us who all owned quads. They were a lot of fun when we had time but with the things I mentioned, and when my son decided to play hockey, they just weren't worth keeping around any longer.
