I wish i was my dad.(couple picts)
 
Finally went out and got my son a 50.He wanted a Raptor like mine but no one in Dallas has one if you can belive that.So iI got him a Polaris Predator.He all ready spent the evening rideing up and down the neighborhood.The thing is actually pretty quiet so none of my neighbors care.

That's a cool little bike Raffa. I saw some little quads smaller than that and the guy said they were "big boy toys". They have a 125cc and go about 45. How much was the quad?

Wish my parents were cool like that :P I'm still trying to buy a dirtbike after a 250cc 2-stroke yamaha threw me a month ago. Turbo first though...

How much was it?LOL!I learned with my quad that you have to pay for a bunch of bullshit.They charge $199 for shipping,$179 for assembly,$50 document fee,$145 title,8.5%tax and $1895 for the bike.But I got it for $2550 with all his gear($195).I played the game and made like I was going to walk out like,then the guy said "whats it going to take to make the deal?".I was going to keep walking but my son was runing around the dealer with the helmet on and I felt bad since he knew we were there to get it.

Yeah dealers come up with all the ridiculous charges possible. Shoulda told him to sell you one that isn't assembled :P I hope I have a son too, he's gonna love me...he'll be swapping an engine by kindergarten :P

Weird, maybe it's just a way to keep their asses from getting sued by idiots that buy them to save money and build them improperly...

I know my friend builds atvs/dirtbikes at his uncle's shop, but they're cheap knockoff chinese things that I doubt cares about the safety of buyers :P

Oh well, I'm sure you, errr your son, will get your money's worth out of it.

Hell yea man, My dad got me a 50 when i was 5, then i started racing at 7 yrs. didn't stop until i got heavily involved with cars at 17. One of the coolest things my dad ever did, kept me out of alot of trouble too. My son is due on the 23rd of september and im super excited to be able to do things like this for him.
Props to you man!

Hell I'd rather my son get in trouble for speeding than for stealing or doing tons of other stupid crap, like the stuff I did because didn't have anything better to do :P

You cant sell them not assembled. polaris dealers have a checklist of ---- to go through on the bike before its sold. I know, i used to do it. Take that little screen in the exaust out and it will get alittle performance kick ;D The bikes are made by aeon, the bombardier ds50 is the same bike but its cheeper :P dont get that starter wet, it will ---- it.



p.s. all you have to do to assemble it is take the crate apart, put the kick start on, fill the tires, raise the handle bars, fill it with gas and oil and put the cover on where the key goes. We did all of that ---- for free on every bike though.
