The boy ran the 110 his G'ma bought and it ran well. It went up and down hills it shouldn't have. But on the fifth day he bent the exhaust valve. So now it sits.:( :d

I like the Eton's (Taiwan) way better than the China stuff but less expensive than the Jap stuff. I've got three of them now.

I've got an old 110cc Gio, and a new one. They are kinda cheap, but the kids love them. Very cheap fun. Do have to keep an eye on all the nuts and bolts for loose ones.

I bought 2 200's for the kids. They go pretty fast. I Put heavier chains on and new plugs & cap that fits properly. Also had to locktight most of the bolts on them. We have done a lot of trail riding and gone on some far trips. They always come back home. The only problem we are having with now is the new batteries I installed are drawing down when the quads arn't being used. :confused: I weigh about 215lbs and they handle me rippen around on them pretty good. Rough ride though! :PDT_bud:

bought one in the early spring of this year, took it out camping with us 1 time, it lasted 1 complete tank of gas before absolutley falling apart.....and by falling apart i really mean falling apart, the 950 bucks they cost for the gio rebel 125 cc, is simply a waste, the junk machines are made of tin foil, and really , really low grade plastic, so if you happen to fart while sitting on it..........be prepared to replace both rear fenders. No word of a lie

lol grubby, seriously though these gio machines are sheer crap, you would be better buying a self propelled lawnmower and taking it on the trail

My 110 must have been a great big lemon from day 1 it was always something wrong with it. I will never own one these jobbers again.

I hate to say it but 90% of the problems with these bikes is the PDI. If they are PDI's correctly they work just fine. They are not as tuff as the jap bikes but for a starter they are perfect. Lottsa torque no horsepower so they are easy to learn on and very cheap to fix.

There are a few bolts and bearings that can be upgraded and as stated junk the plug and put in a NGK. I ran one for two years had no issues and i tried to kill it every chance i got just to prove they were junk, but i couldn't and sold it for almost as much as I had paid for it.

The oil in them is penaut oil for shipping incase they lose a sea can off the ship there can't be engine oil in them.

huh ... we have had a hummer 110 ... went through both kids... other than the float sticking once and a while [ well quad rolling over ] and the chain falling off [ made a tensoner for it ] its been real good .... 800.00 for 2 kids plus sold it for 500.00 .... u tell me


now have a kateria 110 [ bigger body than the hummer ] with a 4 speed .... works awsome and even snorkeled it .... not even a issue ...

daughter rides a mxc 150 now [ has reverse and belt drive ] .. only issue with it was the rear gears housing broke ... got it welded up and plated

friends kids where riding the hell outa it and backed it into a big rock and that how it broke ...
