Before delivery to 8 yr old, I had to test drive it to ensure it's stability & braking.
I'm in my mid 30's and weigh 180 lbs. This motorcyle took off. It has torque from 0-100. Suspension is great. Braking is great. The throttle is variable per input meaning you can give a pinch and it will only go a pinch, or you can give full throttle and it will launch all the way to top speed. My 8yr old drives this thing full throttle and has no issues, even as far as starting to do stunts like Pee-Wee Herman from the classic 80's film.
Battery life: around the neighborhood seems to be 1 hour+ around the neighborhood.
Up-hill, no issue with a child - struggles with adult, but with efficient maneuvering, will make it.
Speed: 17mph flat ground - adult or child
Off Road: fully capable
I have a 2 year old boy as well. He loves riding it with me when possible. That makes 205 total weight and no issues what so ever.
Update November 2010: We have two of these, and both have been well used and still hold a 30-40 minute charge. Zero problems with the motors or tires too. Our boy took a few spills on his, got some gnarly scrapes, but that's to be expected. The kids don't run to use them as much as they did last December, because like any toy, this too gets old.
Update September 2011: Both are still running! The kids are a little older now (12 and almost 10). The 12 year-old has become too tall (and mature :) to ride hers, so it's been passed down to the 10 year-old boy's buddies when they come over. They're not used as much as they used to be, so I feared the batteries would be shot. Not only do the batteries still hold a pretty decent charge, but I have NEVER, not once, filled the tires with air, and they're still in great shape! I may, for the first time, fill the tires to give them a little boost in speed. We moved to a more urbanish suburb with less dirt, so they're ridden on paved streets now when they're ridden. We've moved twice since we first got them. They've had a few minor spills, but no serious injuries to the bikes or kids (thank goodness). Bottom line, they've held up very well, still running excellent for a two year-old battery powered riding toy.
Update October 2012: The kids are now almost 11 and 13, and they're both pretty much done with these things. Both the bikes still run! Original tires and batteries. Granted, the battery on one of them lasts about 20 minutes and the other a little longer, but the kids are bigger and heavier than they were two years ago, so that's to be expected. We sold them to someone for about $150 each for his kids, and they're very pleased. Overall, still 5 stars over our complete ownership. That's pretty darn good. Still recommend!
I have ridden dirt bikes and street bikes for 20 years. From 80 cc dirt bikes, to 1,000 cc super-sports, to my current toy, a Honda CRF250L. I've ridden forest trails and even dragged knees at race tracks. I've rebuilt motorcycles from the frame up and performed countless services. I have experience with bikes. With that said, I could not be happier with this little Razor dirt bike.
Most of the people complaining seem to expect this little bike to compete with the big boys in terms of quality and power. Take a look at your local Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki dealership and you'll find even the smallest 50 and 80cc dirt bikes are $2,000 or more, I looked again before buying this. This little Razor is 1/4 the price. Not much more than your cheap plastic power wheels. However, unlike your power wheels and other cheap plastic ride-on's in this price range which have plastic tires, no suspension, etc., this bike has it all, working suspension, rubber tires, long life, etc. Not to mention, no maintenance, no carburetor to mess with, no oil to change, the brakes are those off a bicycle. Everything is simple. Also, unlike buying a used dirt bike in this price range, this is new. You don't have to deal with the usually poor treatment of the previous owner.
We bought this bike for our 7 year old daughter. The warnings and advertising for a teenager is a joke. The warnings actually say no younger than 16. I love how a 15 year old can drive on the highway in a car at 60mph, but by the warnings isn't old enough to ride this toy 15mph on grass. Even now at 8 years old our daughter has quickly has mastered the bike and could move up to something bigger. However, with that said, I do really enjoy riding this little bike myself. As does my wife. Its quite fun to just zip around the yard. Recently I have started riding it through the woods on trails where I ride my real dirt bike. I was very surprised about how well it performed. I was definitely pushing it well beyond its intended design, but it held up fine, even with my adult weight.
My one and only gripe with the bike is the gearing. Its geared for riding across flat grass. It loses all power going up a hill. At least with my adult weight. It handles our daughters weight just fine. I plan to remedy this however with a larger custom rear sprocket. With that, this could easily be a toy for me as well as a good dirt bike for some legitimate trail riding.
As for the power life. Again, not sure whats wrong with other reviews. We can ride this bike for hours with my daughters weight. For well over an hour with my adult weight. With a bigger sprocket to tax the motor less, I think it will be even better. As for ruggedness. This thing has already survived numerous falls and crashes. Also, like I said earlier, I've taken it on trails I take my real dirt bikes, with my adult weight, it has held up fine.
Overall, this is one of the best purchases I've made. With all the cheap products out their these days, this has been a great experience.
**UPDATE!!**
Believe it or not- this little machine is a BEAST!!! And believe me when I say that takes a lot coming from an ADULT. Yes. That’s right. I’m a very small frame, athletic AF adult female at 5”2’ and 105lbs.
ZERO SHAME in saying that although I drive an SUV, I haven’t forgotten my days spent dirt biking and skateboarding with my older brothers and have luckily stayed in pretty decent shape throughout the years (cue ^modesty^ haha!) in any event.. I knobs I’d expect a lot. And trust me when I say I took this little baby to a dirt canyon LOADED with jumps, turns, rocks and shale galore and it did exceedingly well for over an hour. I didn’t gauge the speed- but I was in the air at least 1/5 of the time and put this baddie through hell chasing after my nephews who are demons. Long story long- if it’s under $700 JUST BUY IT AND SMILE. You’re very welcome🙌🏻
Update - received the parts from razor in just about a week. Fast service. Everything works now and my kids love it. The only annoying thing is the front shoes are noisy. I plan to mod them anyways.
