=Change oil
=Change spark plug
=Lube all cables, replace them if they do not operate easily and smoothly
=clean air filter
=make sure tires have goo dtread. New ones for these small bikes a re verry cheap to replace.
=make sure the brakes operate good. ( grab good and don't stick on)
=Helmet
=Gloves
=chest protector
=goggles
=laceless foot wear
=elbow and knee pads. If he/ she gets hert on this thing the riding days may be over. It is verry easy for a kid to get scard and not want to try it again.
=Have first ride in a
Big Open Field. And be prepaird for when he first twists the throttle. Most kids will freeze and hold it wfo(wide Fkn Open) when the bike starts to move. They will not remember to let it off and use the brakes:hr:. I have seen this many times.:ted:
=Make sure the throttle limiter works and have it turned right down to limit speed(see previous note)
=Make it all new and shiney for the kid:tup:
And maybe most importantly..... buy yourself a bike. It doesn't have to be a hight tek bike just something you can ride with him on. Riding is one of the best family sports going. Don't be a "Heres your bike , cya later" Dad.
Enjoy:tup:
