Quad Bike for Kid

[netstrider]

Where would be the best place to buy one in Gauteng?

Looking for something small for my daughter who is 5.

Found these guys online but know nothing about them.

Do they have insurance on kids?

They're lot's of fun.

@netstrider
A few points if I may.
1. Get two helmets, she's going to roll it. Doesn't matter how tame she might be right now. When the cousins visit they get emboldened by the fun. My two have both fallen multiple times.

2. You'll need spares and services. So I'd go for something with support like e.g. big boy.

Grandparents bought a foo Kong brand go cart and it was not a success.

3. You want it to almost be able to carry an adult, because initially you're going to sit on it with her, to teach her. And mommy's getting a lift and grandma's getting a lift etc.

4, Just check it can have a throttle limit bolt thing to limit speed which is good initially.

5. No two strokes! It's PT and you're not a mechanic.

6. No lawnmower 50cc engine types. They're garbage that lasts 5 mins before giving issues. We've had the two wheel types not last a week.

Also teach her that the exhaust gets warm. But they learn this the hard way in any case.
Hell, I burned myself the other day again.

Thanks. Used to have a 50CC Suzuki as a kid and that thing was rock solid. Concerned about going 110 as that seems a bit big for a toddler. Was planning on getting helmets, yes.

Had exactly this yellow and blue one as a kid

Just check if it has a throttle limiter.
As far as I remember I could walk next to them using that.

And that's exactly what she'll be doing after a while
