ogre03 Posted December 19, 2005 Report Posted December 19, 2005 I'm looking at getting my kid one. I live in B.F.E. Alaska, so sorry Ellison, but I don't have access to any shops that sell eatons. Here's my options, honda trx 90, Kawasaki / suzuki 80, yamaha raptor 80, Polaris predator 90. I'm leaning tward the predator then the kawi/zuki, just from reading about them, but I really have no expirience with any of them. Any advice? Quote
99Banshee Posted December 19, 2005 Report Posted December 19, 2005 there are 2 honda trx 90's in my family and they seem to be good..one has a k&n and a big gun pipe and it sounds like a 400ex Quote
sheecandy Posted December 19, 2005 Report Posted December 19, 2005 id say go with the suzuki lt80 my boy has one nice little quad Quote
ellison445 Posted December 19, 2005 Report Posted December 19, 2005 From your list of choices, I would go with the predator.. I have seen them kick ass with minor mods and from what I hear they are very reliable. Quote
KJO89 Posted December 19, 2005 Report Posted December 19, 2005 I would go with the predator 90. My brothers have a lt80 and predator 90, and there is no comparison. The predator is much better. And very reliable to. Quote
sp1tekiller Posted December 19, 2005 Report Posted December 19, 2005 I am for the KFX/LT80. They have long been a popular machine in mini racing much like the 250R. Lots of mods available and parts also. Quote
rocketboy Posted December 19, 2005 Report Posted December 19, 2005 my daugther has a polaris predator 90.it is easily the best mini on the market IMO and she has a bombardier also ,the predator is tough and has no trouble scooting an adult around at a surprising pace ,the quailtiy is above the others and well worth the extra expense ,it has an easy reverse and alot of safety stuff ,free helmet ,flag w/ whip video. it is suspended and balanced great also easy turning . the attention to detail is second to none , shes only 6 and has no trouble throwing it around yet it hauls me briskly around the yard with no problem . it has plenty of zip to impress the little ones till their in a pre- teen stage . i have as much fun riding that as i do my ported cub.

ogre03 Posted December 20, 2005 Author Report Posted December 20, 2005 Thanks for all the replies. I figured everyone would have a different opinion based on what they have expirience with. Well I was leaning tward the predator to begin with, and the people who have them and or used them have a high opinion of them, so I guess that's what I'll go with. It will be a little while before I get it. (I have to recover from christmas first) But I will let ya guys know what I think of it when I get it... Or umm, I mean my kid gets it Quote
