Hey man I just grabbed one of these and a predator 125 for my kids. I’m in AZ it seems like you are as well. I’d love some advice from someone who’s pulled them apart already and experienced working on them. I’m decently mechanical and do most my own maintenance. The 125 is leaking oil and I just like to kinda tear them apart and see how it’s all put together. Any advice for brand new ones? I literally bought them yesterday and picked them up today from the dealer. Thanks man 👍🏻
My son's was running bad from day 1.... had to have the starter replaced 1 hour after purchase and about a month later i started having "dying at idle" or not starting once it got hot, turned out that the CDI was dying and then died...... all was replaced by the dealer under warranty and havent had a single issue since and that has been over a year ago. So i intiially had some pretty serious buyers remorse but once those 1st month issues were resolved it has performed flawlessly!
There have been people who change he the filter and remove the spark arrestor and have gotten some better low end torque. You can also replace the front sprocket easily
The float bolts turn with the turn if some pliers
Ill definitely have to save this video. Im buying my 6yo daughter one of these soon.

Not sure I would want to take the drimel and make sparks while hold a carb that had gas in it. But glade it worked out good for you.
Can’t hurt steel
@ lol. But still might burn 🔥
Which screw on the carb were you turning to adjust the idle? The one in the middle or the one to the left of it?
I’m pretty sure it’s the one on the right side
Where does the second hose from the tank connect to?
I think it’s the pressure release and or over flow.
Have you ever came across oil coming out of clutch cover casing? Around the bolt to adjust? Possibly too much oil?
Thanks
Not yet… so far no leaks
Awesome. Thanks for the follow up video. So, on the carburetor, the float bowl screws didn't have a head? so you made one for a flat tip screwdriver?
Yeah I took a Dremel and cut a slot in each head
Correct, even if the carburetor is trash, you can buy it cheaper and better one online
i have a KAYO AY70, but have only rear brakes, which parts can i use to put front hydraulic brakes?
possible to see where the caliper hold to fix? 😂😂😂
thats odd mine came with front and rear
I have the same bike I bought for my son how could I make it have more low end torque
I would start by changing the carb or the jets
Cool thanks for the reply any suggestions on what kinda carb or jets ?
For that I have no idea I would look and see if there is a aftermarket community they would be the best bet

Can also try different sprockets, loose a little too end speed but should gain in the lower.
How has the carb been since you cleaned it?
Perfect
That fart was the best sound of the video😂😂
Felt amazing
What kind of battery did you end up using? My son's battery died. Did you get it off amazon?
I went to AutoZone and found one that fits I don’t recall the exact model but it was 30ish dollars.
