Chinese ATV 101 - Making a Coolster 125 better -- Chinese ATV upgrades
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 сер 2017
- In this video, I will show you how to make a Chinese ATV less terrible by upgrading the suspension, chain, handlebars, front sprocket and wheel spacers. Links to all of the items mentioned in this video are below! I've scoured the inner-recesses of the internet for this secret knowledge; what you do with it is up to you.
12.5" 320mm Front Shocks - on EBAY.com search for Pair 320mm Shocks 12.5" Absorbers For Honda TRX250R and choose your favorite color.
Freedom County ATV (FC11020S) Wheel Spacer - www.amazon.com...
RK Racing Chain GB428MXZ132 132-Links Gold MX - www.amazon.com...
Scott Radial Black Atv Handlebar Hand Grips - www.amazon.com...
Pro Taper SE Series 7/8" Standard Handlebars - ATV High/Jet - www.amazon.com...
428 12-Tooth 17mm Engine Sprocket - Purchased from my friendly nieghborhood Chinese powersports dealer... for about 7 bucks
The engines really are great on these. I have had one since 2006. Still runs nice. Only thing I had to change was the starter last year
ive got one from 2009 the previous owner shifted without the clutch and never did a oil change (it went wide open with no coolant in the thing as well) and ok yeah it jumps into gear all the time but honestly thats pretty good
Got to agree with the front suspension being rock solid, and spacers on the rear. The chain really does stretch after an hour or so. I was going to fit a chain tensioner but will upgrade the chain too after watching this vid. The rest I can live with 👍🏼
2 years later. Still the best bang for the buck. Great advice. Still relevant. The only thing I can add is #6 remove the Governor and gear it for you desired top speed. Governors rob power.
That's what gear ratios are for. Well Done. Thank you sir.
Side note:
China has upped there game on the CDI box and voltage regulators. The new ones do not fail like the older ones. Super cheep on Amazon. And worth it.
Time flys!
You're funny man. Keep making videos! Thank you for the great advice.
I bought a frame for my boy.
Not even regretting it one bit, the only thing I regret is not having more time with him and the frame to build up.
Ebay has been a savior in this project, specially for the rear swing arm
When your searching for parts I found that its easier using other keywords instead of taotao atv for example, I used "coolster atv parts"
"Chinese atv parts"
Or rear axel.
Searching for parts is hard because I don't really have a lot of trust in some random parts website..
Thanks. My neighbor gave me one of these, pretty much just like yours. It sit for over two years so it needs a few things. Carb leaks out of everything that has a seam and the gas tank was comically dry since what gas that was left in it leaked into the oil over the years. Left sitting with the fuel on. Otherwise, I know the 4 wheeler and I know it was running good when he bought a bigger one and this one got abandoned. I've ordered a carb and a new seat since the original seat literally disintegrated. The plastic frame crumbled to dust. The only thing left was the seat cover draped over the bike. lol Your links to upgrades is what I was looking for. Thanks again.
thanks for your video, i bought one today. going to get the upgrades this weekend... great job sir. outstanding presentation.
where did you buy
Thanks for this video I just by a 125 cc...and have fun but with this 5 upgrade will be better and more secure...thanks a bunch ....gretting's from california...👍
Thanks for the video , Over the years I have bought and sold endless Chinese ATV and what your saying is totally correct , once you do the five things you say they are good bikes . shame there's not a fix for the pathetic plastics , they break just looking at them .
Just POR 15 the plastic bits, if they crack underneath a thick layer nobody would notice XD
I just installed those shocks you recommended.. i was a bit skeptical on how much of a difference they would make but, you were 100% right! It handles bumps and branches like they are not there.. also when my son turns fast and sharp, it doesn't lift the rear wheel. I ordered the sprocket and chain but have not gotten them yet.. as far as the spacers.. what i did was just put the rear wheels on inside out, and with the off set of the wheels it spaced them out.. true if the rear tires need air you have to fill them from the inside but with all the open area back there that's no problem at all and spaced them out about 2 inches.
Also since the factory carburetor needle has no adjustment notches i used a grinding wheel to taper the tip of the needle to allow more fuel. It helps eliminate the full throttle bog.. next i will drill out the mixture screw and fine tune it..
Great upgrade tips brother!
Johnny Turbo good stuff!
@@PlushEnduro 😁👍
Where and what did you order for rplacment on the chain and sprocket? Thanks in anvance..
@@shawnwhetzel4066 for some reason i can get the link to copy so i just cut and pasted the discrimination.
Amazon: $47.14
RK Racing Chain GB428MXZ132 132-Links Gold MX Chain with Connecting Link (you will need to remove several links)
Sproket info
Ebay: $6.99
428 12T 17mm Engine Sprocket Chain Wheel For 125cc ATV QUAD Dirt Bike Part.
Just cut and paste to Amazon for the chain and ebay for the sprocket. (You WILL need to grind down the sprocket retainer clip like he mentioned for the sprocket retainer not to interfere with the chain. I used my grinding wheel, took about 1 minute)
Hope that helps. Other questions feel free to ask!
@@johnnyturbo8460 thank you a lot brother I really appreciate the info..
you are 100% on the money sir. Have one my self and am on my way to upgrading to this level for my son as well. The suspension is absolutely a major concern. Found my self flat out agreeing with what your saying and nodding my head as if we were sitting talking together hahaha. These can be great. And they get the little ones riding! just need about $100 to $300 and there awesome.... for what they are.
GREAT VIDEO. I also have spent countless hours looking for solutions for the best price. This man has condensed hours of research into a great video. Like he said, if you get one of these then for the love of your child do these upgrades!
Thanks for the advice brother, take care!
DId most of the updates on my kids coolster 125cc and dont regret it... about $1000 total cost. (also got a set of paddles for dunes of ebay).. Thank you very much for all this useful info..
I just put paddle tires on my son's bike for a ride tomorrow. How did yours do in the sand with paddles?
I found a tao Tao 125 and a 150cc that had hardly been used on offer up, got both for 250 each. They had sat all winter so gas went bad and clogged the carbs. The 150 had popped off the chain because they had the wrong chain entirely. I got a new chain for the 150, new gas and clean carbs and they run really good for what I need.
Great Video me and my wife just bought two 125cc quads and we are modding ours to race each other.
I did about the same upgrades to my sons ATV (GIO 125CC 2WD) and like you stated in this video it will change these bikes from "Meh"... to "Huh?!" Lol... thanks for the video it was great.
I purchased the same four wheeler for my son after I saw your video. I will be taking your advice and upgrading the atv parts mentioned as he grows into it more. Thank you for taking your time to make an educational video, doing the homework and providing us with your experience!
+JUSTIN PARRIS You bet!
Really helped with my Chinese bikes I bought everything and it was like a brand new bike thanks alot
I picked up an adult sized quad like this that needed work. For the seat replacement I ended up using a waterproof lomo hi viz backpack stuffed full of old pillows, which I then strapped to the frame where the seat goes. I had to fasten a bit of rigid plastic to the frame under it to support it kinda like a seat pan. But it looks decent (it’s luminous hi viz yellow and shiny -while the plastics are red). Its big cushy and supportive and holds up well to mud and heavy riders, way better than the original seat probably would. tbh I’m more worried about the quad frame snapping than anything else
I ordered an Apollo Blazer last night and ordered the carb, chain, sprocket, shock absorbers, handle bars and grips today. She’s going to be ready to rip. Thank you for the video
“Don’t be all the way cheap”…great advice!
It's hilarious, I just bought and am finishing a build, and before even watching this I did the exact same things you covered, even the rear shock. Lol great
Great Video, I never comment but felt the need to thank you for making an honest video, with great links to the products you mentioned. This was exactly what I was looking for. Just purchased a New TaoTao TForce 125, and plan on doing the mods you listed. Thanks for keeping it real!!!
+83Gbody My pleasure!
Perfect timing on this video for me. Thank you!!
old mates here doing actual upgrades to his quad and im just strapping stereos and light bars to mine
junkiehunter while your actually strapping them on I’m taping flashlights on
I just make a big bonfire.
🤣🤣
Or metal comes from China
Hahaha
Great video!! I have had two 2018 TaoTao Tforce for over a year now and so far i haven't had a single issue with the chain on neither one, probably because the newest models come with chain tensioner. Front suspension is not that bad on these little quads (Compared to my Yamaha YFZ450). But definitely buying wheel spacers for the rear tires and new handle bars. I got to say Chinese manufacturers have finally stepped up their game. I have some videos of the ATVs on my channel. Regards,
I thought the same thing about the shocks, but i was bored and like to tinker with stuff so i ordered the shocks he recommended and installed them on my sons 2019 tao tao coolster 125cc ATV.. IT MADE A HUGE DIFFERENCE. i was shocked.. it goes over bumps and branches like a Cadillac. You don't even feel them. It is smoother over bumps then my 2016 Can Am 1000R ATV. It honestly has me looking into upgrading my ATV. It really made that much of s difference.
For the rear wheel spacers, try flipping them and putting the rear wheels on inside out.. with the offset it puts them out about 2 inches.. you just have to air them up when needed from the inside, but there is PLENTY of room to do so
I have a newer one 2018 it has a tensioner but chain still came off..also rear brake fell off n lost the bolts..i havent done any upgrades other than the carb. Its a bit peppier now n idles better. But all these issues im def aware of.
We bought a 125 Coolster from Wise Choice Equipment in Tiffin Ohio three years ago. It has been beat to death, but still running. You need to have some mechanical ablility to own one of these. They require maintenance and repair a lot. But they are fun. Ours weighs twenty pounds more than original due to me having to reinforce the frame multiple times,.
Thank you so much for the great updates and I love the personality that you got I think once I get all the links and get my bike set up I think what you just showed me is exactly what I wanted to do cuz yes I did the same thing for the Chinese bike did not want to do it it was for my kid and wife but now it's all three of ours
Loved the video. Just found it. One point. Don’t forget to tighten every friggen bolt back up after every ride!
Use some blue Locktite on every bolt you find loose.
You should be on TV bud...your hilarious bud.
Good advice ..thx.
It is tough.
Im bustin my own balls on the china thing.
I hate my chain, it falls of every time I get into a drift.
get a chain tool to make the chain any size u need
@Gage Ward I tightened my chain but 3 days later the engine blew up and now I have nothing :(
@@Bobsquideling what do u mean blew up? if its just the top end u can get piston, rings, and gaskets for $15 on amazon, you can pull the motor and rebuild it in a few hours tops, just did it tonight on one i have
Align the rear sprocket to the front sprocket. They are usually a bit out of alignment.
U need a pod cast talking about different products ... that shit would be hilarious and take off ... just saying lol
I just got one for my son, I have a kawasakizx10r I dit all the upgrades for my bike and for my son I will ,thank u for the video ,great video thank you ...👍
Great video. Also, people can buy used, then drop $180 for a brand new engine! That plus a chain and you're in business with a quad that will last a long time.
Rusty Nail the frame is the main flaw, mines broke twice
Best thing I ever did was buy a pair of the 2007 Honda Trx 250 ex's for five grand two years ago and with that optional sport clutch. Stuck brand new quadboss front an rear tires for both from eBay for 350.00 for all eight tires another great investment for them, I recently replaced the rear axle bearings and stuck sloted drum pads on it and they touch them back breaks and they lock up good and tight! They're 12 an 11 years old let me tell ya!! them quads are tanks general maintenance keeps them running great! They literally ride them every day. Nice video the things we do for our kids lol. Next month I'm replacing the entire front ends on both bushings, tie rods, & ball joints that's gonna kill me lol but after that they're going to be so solid.
Japanese is always the solid bet if you can afford it. No argument there!
1,000 years? Impressive. Thanks for the video
Great job on the video. People talk crap because they think thier opinion matters. I like videos like this. People sharing information to help. I agree with all of those mods. I also think that jetting the carb is something to look at. Mine ran lean and was very easy to make too rich. A little trial and error got mine running real smooth. The carbs on those things are fine, but need fine tuning. Those quads also respond well to exhaust.
My Dick dumbass the salvage yard is full of them not japan machines so what's that tell you .
dana woolaver I could buy 5 of these for what you would pay for 1 overpriced mainstream quad. I read some of your other negative comments and I have some advice, don't be angry at everyone else just because you have little bitty nads.
Just picked one up for 100 bucks, will be checking out some of these mods. Thanks!
A friend of mine had one of these as his first bike (long story). He beet the crap out of it here’s the faults we found. The frame does have a tendency to crack at some stress points. Front and rear of the frame by the engine mounts. We also did find out the chain truly was junk, I swear I took three links out of it every time we rode it. We did gusset the frame and weld on it wear it began to crack and never had a problem with it. Plastic and drive train held up fine and the rear (as long as it’s 4 bolt) is 4/110 Honda pattern. The only reason he got rid of was to trade it for a bigger bike, the bike ran and preformed fine.
Thanks bud.
I'll be buying one for my kids for Christmas and this made my decision easy for me.
Yeah my little brother has the exact same machine as we were trail riding we started to know that we needed to change a lot on that thing and that’s the main things we changed suspension and the chain and also the tires made it a lot better
Thanks for the sweet video man... really showed me what i need to do to make my daughter's Coolster 125 so much better.
Did those shocks work good?
Funniest and most well rounded video I’ve seen on these enigmatic atvs.
Great video. As a father... I like your approach. I will look into it. I live upstate NY
Very good video man . I am thinking of buying a 250 Rhino because i cant afford a honda and this video will help me fix the problems that the Chinese atvs have and i will upgrade the parts that you talk about in the video . thanks and thumbs up.
I have an idea on how you can solve the rear suspension problem. Take out the spring, replacing it with a temporary one. Compress the spring as much as you can (using spring compression kit or using a vise) and leave it like so for some time. Its rate will decrease over time. Not sure how long that would take but you could test it periodically. My guess is two weeks of full compression time would soften it quite noticeably.
actually this video is great =)
Super helpful video! Ordering parts now!
I got my son a new cheetah 125 and yes. I did the front shocks(same ones you got). rear wheel spacers and now thinking she needs a carb. After sitting this winter it starts only when giving it gas the the single screw on the carb doesn't do anything currently.
Thank you. I ordered everything you listed.
I have 2 chinese quads and my friend has one, all 110cc and all had problems, but completely different problems. They were and are all completely different except the engines as well
Great video, just what I needed. Thanks!
I just bought one used for $500. The engine is still in good shape, but the EXACT 5 things you mentioned are not working properly as we speak. The chain is too long. Probably stretched. The front shocks do not move when you press on the front, etc etc... Great advise in this video. If possible, can you give a recent update on the ATV with all the upgrades?
How did they hold up?
Thanks for taking the time to put this together. Very insightful I am going to more than likely buy a coolster
I want to have fun on a budget. It is not possible to go buy a Honda even though I would love to. I want to pay cash and my grandson will have a big smile . Heck I will probably by a 125 SSR for my self to follow him on. The mods are a must.
Most welcome! Have fun with the kiddo!
320mm shocks didn’t work on my 125cc 2017 Coolster. Had to return, they are 280mm and they only sell them in single quantity at least from what I found on eBay.
Baldo R there are 2 coolster 125 sizes. The smaller tire version with 3 lugs need the 280mm shocks. The larger tire size will the 4 lug the 320mm works perfect I just did it to my kids 2019 125
I just did my sons 125cc China quad with the 320mm shocks, and only one side, the camber is off and dont know why
I picked up the same quad two years ago when my niece and nephew came to visit. let’s just say you get what you pay for. You are right the suspension doesn’t work for anything I haven’t had an issue with the chain stretching but my biggest issue is nuts and bolts falling off and the bracket bending at the end of the tire rod next to the tire So the alignment toes out really bad. Just a few days ago I ordered a smaller front 12 tooth sprocket. And those wheel spacers are a good idea but when I tap on your link it says unavailable
The brakes work great on my YFZ... Idk if others r having problems, but mine lock up and work like a dream
Just found this. Thanks! The front shocks truly are awful, and I was looking for a better replacement when I came across your video.
In my experience I have a Chinese quad and the one thing I had to replace the first week owing it was the crappy fuel filter it was made of plastic as thin as a soda cup so I replaced it with a metal fuel filter and this was on my particular model of quad which is the lynx rs6.
Hi @Rylan Leeper, we jus got a 125 lynx. How are you liking it and have you tried any of these upgrades to yours?
Just wanted to say thank you for putting forth your time and effort for the benefit of our children in producing this video.
I just ordered a New Tao Tao Cheetah 125 for my son. These recommendations are spot on. and I have already ordered most of them. Only one thing I would add ,is a new battery with higher cca. ( I don't trust the Chinese batteries) Nothing worse than having your battery go bad in the middle of nowhere?*%##@
I can tell you are a great dad and would make a good friend!

Gary Manley they easily push start :) found out on my trailer, starter would roll over, I was mad and it was in gear and I pushed it - it fired right up...
I have a 200cc kitroad catan and I'm trying to find parts so it will run and thank you for the tips it took me forever to find a video on these ATVs and I'm going to check those links
I mean to be honest i got one of those aldo and its lasted me for a couple years and still doing good i love these fourwheelers
Also, the wiring harness, CDI box, rectifier, etc. are crappy. If you have problems, don’t try to piece it together, just buy a new kit and replace it all for $30 bucks. Also, understand that the China quad tires aren’t very reliable.
I have the 150 dx2 and out of the box, I can see that the handle bar and suspension issue needs to be addressed. Thanks for all your suggestions. I will look into doing most as I am sure the 150 dx2 can be modified similarly.
I ended up buying 2 of the 150 cc versions of this atv after watching your video and immediatly installed the shocks that you have, installed unibear o-ring chains and the 2 inch wheel spacers, which was a little tough since the studs were too short. Had to find bolts and file down the hub a little to make it fit.. But they are now great little 4-wheelers. Thanks for the great info and fun to watch video
Hey! where did you find the shocks or what's the brand name?
Bird Robinson ...EBAY, Look up item # 122390226569
Where can I buy one of these quads?
that's the problem i'm having now with my wheel spacer's,the hub is just a little to big to fit inside the wheel spacer
This guy is hilarious 😂
Hey I just wanted to say thanks man. I just bought my son a used tao tao 125cc "Hummer edition" youth ATV with 18" tires in the front and 19" in the back. Look up the Hummer edition if you don't know what I'm talking about. I'm 6'5 and I can ride this thing. Anyway. Thanks a ton the very first thing in doing outside of standard maintenance is changing the handle bars. My son got on it and that's the first thing he said was it was hard to turn.
So do you recommend the Chinese ATV? Also how well will it be able to handle singletrack because I'm all about widening trails
am in not the only one where the whole thing when running vibrates like crazy and idk what to do bout it
there should be a throttle limit screw near the brake lever on the handlebars get rid of that it helps
DELTACX10 bro its a kids bike they need that
LOL 8 years mines running great, I rienforced the rear end supports up to 350lbs and i tow 10 to 15' tree poles around 6 to 10 inch or better rounds lol up hill poping willys some times, with a rienfoced rack on the back towing with a strap i weigh 140lbs and i give my family rides on the rack up grades/hills easy in low! I love my coolster qiye 125 lol some mods but legit price for what i needed it 800$ do keep a welder and rienforce your rear end and put a chain pully tensioner on, it helps the chain not strech so much... i could tow 250lb carpet out of my house in a roll lol and a strap, for giving rides put a pellow on the rack lol when rienforced! Its going i put many hours on it 30 oil changes if i remember going on 9/20/2017.
nick edmunds did you ever change the exhaust? What kind
Exhaust what about
Drive it up and down your driveway and polish your turd and brag it's lasted so long
2 years and my body is bleached and disentigrating LOL sadly no one seems to have replacement body shell kits for the coolster 3125A nor does anyone seem to have any suggestions for a compatible "sport" style body just fugly "utility" style which I want NO part of.
My son's "utility" coolster 110 the front shocks are actually pretty good. The rear might as well been solid mounted. I pulled the front off of one like his in a junkyard and put on the back, made it tons better.
Been looking for affordable wheel spacers for years, his has a weird 3 lug pattern.
Anyways he's been running the dog piss out of his for years now and aint had any problems. Not bad for a used $100 4 wheeler.
My quad on my channel has an acceptable handlebars and I weigh 120 pounds but I think my front shocks are worn out and too soft 😂 the rear is the same way. my quad was built in 2009, and the chain hasn't stretched any. My front brakes suck but you can rebuild them! My rear breaks awesome still. Engine in my quad worn out, needs an new head and piston. I made my front brakes not suck by upgrading to a hydraulic clutch cylinder, I bought 2 and a hydraulic splitter. I'll leave a link for that so you can upgrade your front brakes. I bought the lines and attachments from lowes. Amazing vid on this!

Great video ! We have subscribed ! Blessings and happy new year !
Can you make a video an how to wheelie this quad
Lean back, give it some revs, dump the clutch, reef up on the hangers....
Ordered the shocks for my kids thanks to this video. I’ll let ya know how it goes.
What were the size
Matt Dee I got the 12.5 320mm Honda TRX 250 shocks for my sons 4 wheeler. The 4 wheeler is too small for these shocks. But it looks cool hah
Great video, i have the 150cc version and put the same suspension on it...going big bore too
Awesome video, really appreciate it. I needed this
Thanks for this video! Very helpful . Bought one and saw this video and it helps to know that they don’t have to suck as bad lol.
Thanks Jeffco!
Honest and sensible advice - full marks
loved the way you talk. genuine words.
I don't know if you're drunk, high or just a jolly guy.. Hehe, but I really enjoyed your very helpful video. Thanks
Mostly Jolly
Good video. The model in your video is very similar to one called the 125G Cheetah here in Canada and the front suspension is indeed a full shock/spring setup and is very responsive and spongy. The reasoning for the 27" handlebars is because they are youth ATV's and not meant for adults anyway. Many kids might not have the extended reach to deal with incredibly wider bars and conversely, have a chance at losing control of the entire bar over rough terrain. When you're mentioning chains stretching doing wheelies with adult weight on them. The chain is a good upgrade but originals are not meant for wheelies or adults lets be fair. The chains on any of the ATV's I deal with stretch a few mm only (thats millimeters) only after some heavy use in the first week or so, tighten them up and al is good. As a matter of fact I sell hardly any chains. Most are on their 4th year with the same chain and people that need them are people that leave the ATV in the elements and wonder why it has snapped after 4 years of rain or snow. I have to laugh at the people that ask me if they are for adults just because they are unwilling to spend an extra $600 on a full size 150-250cc that can handle adults. The Rear shocks should have a 6 or 7 step adjustable collar that are fully functional for adjusting tension. They do up here at least. You're correct on the engine. Out of 400_ small 110cc models sold I have had one blow smoke a week in and 2 with slight oil or air leaks around the Cyl head. They are awesome. Excellent upgrade on the wheel spacing as well
Whygostock.com has different rear sprocket options.
Great vid dude just traded a Chinese mini bike I won from a Carnival for a atv for my son. I’m looking forward into working on it plus my son has a cousin and neighbor with the same quads
suspension and loctite is your best friend with these CHECK NUTS AND BOLTS SHIT WILL GET LOSE i went with piggy back rear shock if you do the chain replacment get both sprockest can remember if you said it use 93 octaine pretty much reall a great deal for something that cost 700 new no complants wheelbearings are also a good upgrade
Hey there have the same quad, can I get the information on the wheel spacers you used totally agree that it needs to be widened! Would be greatly appreciated!!😊
Have a chinese quad for over a year now i just want to see how to awesomify it
And put a new exhaust on it too , the exhaust is very restrictive
The suspension is the best modification. The stock set up would auto flip my taotap.
The bad news is that motor is a copy with the exception that all the bearings are soft metal and the out put shaft bearing and seal will be the first to fail at about 40hrs and then the oil will leak out.
I can't believe you still have the 60mph rear sprocket on it. I'd change that for a 45 tooth unit before the chain jumps and grenades the case. On and on. Ive owned my quad for 8 or 9 yrs now. Really junk but cheap.
You can puta chain alignment guard on it to help keep the chain from rolling off I think their $60/70.... 3 of my kids have China bikes one used the other two brand new... I need to widen the 4wheeler but the dirt bike still runs great need bars though....
I just received a chinese quad as my retirement gift from my family. I was told that the front breaks are only for parking, and that I should always use the rear brakes for stopping. It took me a minute to get use to not using it as a front brake, as I use to ride motorcycles. I agree that they do suck if you try to use them as such, but that is what I was told that they really are. I live in Germany, so it is allowed to drive them on the streets. I am definitely am having fun with that. I just want to know what are your thoughts on the front brakes.
Hello George, My thoughts on the front brakes are that they are not very good! I really only brought them up because if buying one of these for a child, you would have to make sure that the child knew that they would need to use the rear break in an emergency situation. You are allowed to drive these on the streets in Germany? That's awesome! Speaking of Germany, we will be in Freiburg next week for a few days. We are very excited.
I also grabbed a pair of 1” thcik 4x100 wheel spacers (specd for a Honda Civic Si) that are working great for additional front stance
Umm my grandpa surprised me with this and it had all the parts you have because the store that sells it puts aftermarket parts so i know how good these parts are because I can experience it in real life
Edit: these parts are highly recommended
I just bought a 2019 RPS 125CC Raider 7 and was wondering if the Shocks would fit it? It's exactly like the Coolster Kodiak 125 utility wheeler. Also, It has 3 bolt hubs on it and not 4 bolt hubs so the wheel spacers will not fit. I cannot seem to locate any decent 3 bolt 2" spacers. Any suggestions? Could I swap out the 3 bolt for 4 bolt hubs without compromising the integrity of anything?
The head light bulbs are terrible at least on the vitacci jet 9s they weren't usable. You can find LED H6 bulbs for about 6 bucks. WE found my son some orange ones to match his quad and they're fantastic
I own a little chinabike 200cc enduro and I agree that frickn chain needs to get swapped out. Same goes for any fasteners that are used to secure the main drive shaft. My chain became so loose, I believe it jumped off the teeth with enough force to essentially lock itself up within the space around the rear wheel and sprocket. I dodged a bullet though because it happened at low speed (10-15mph) but still a little scary imagining what it would have done at higher speeds.
Love this video. You say the front aftermarket shocks were 320mm (12.5 inches) - it looks like the stock shocks on our 125cc coolster are 11 or 11.5 inches middle of the eye to middle of eye, which would be about 270 or 275mm. Will the 320 work even if the stock was less than 320mm? No travel issues, no max length issues? Just want to ask a maybe obvious question before ordering. Thanks!
+Jay Sherman no fitiment issues for me, but I’m not they always make these quads the same way twice. I also had 2 mounting position options on the lower control arm.
Just purchased the front sprocket, shocks and spacers for my sons ‘17 coolster 125. The recess in the backside of the spacer for center of the hub is about 1/4 too small. Probably gonna try having a machine shop open it up… since I started the process and can’t return them.
im 100kg. I purchased a 2018 model. Not a problem. Then purchased used 2012 model, was excellent until my son crashed in a pole and broke the front drum brake housing
