What is a good price on one of these? I found one with the yellow plastics and black seat. The frame is blue. It comes with a spare motor and spare axle assembly plus it is about 95% complete to a nice restore. It just needs a clutch cable.

What is a good price on this thing? I don't know much about them except that they are two strokes with shaft drive. Any opinions are appreciated.

I had one.. really easy to work on.. got my kids an ATv and then it just sat.
I rebuilt my engine and it was in great shape .. not needing anything or even any cracks in the plastic. I got I think $500 for it..

Are you sure it needs a clutch cable?? They are automatic clutches no clutch cable..

I'm sorry I meant a choke cable. Do you think it would be worth picking up with the spare motor and axle assembly for $250? Could I enjoy it at all as a 200 lb adult? I had a 70 and that thing was a blast. I'm just wondering if it is worth it.

I enjoyed my.. it was a blast.. I never even used the choke cable on mine.. But they are cheap to get new. If it runs good I wouldnt turn it down

I think these are alot better than an atc 70. The 70 will have more top speed because they have gears, but the zinger has alot more power, it is just 1 speed.

Okay, I think I might try and get this thing. It looks to be in great shape. I'll keep you all posted.

I paid $250 for one in decent shape; I think you've got a pretty good deal there. My son and nephews love it, but I'm 6'3" and 250 so I can't really ride it.

My cousin is 6'7 an he used to ride ours and had a blast.. Kind of looked like a clown bike but still very fun.
