Taotao 250B
Looking at picking up a Taotao 250B for the wife. I see lots of posts for the D, Rhino model, but does anyone have any experience with the little sport version? Seems hard to pass up at about $1000. Thanks

There are actually 3 versions. The Rhino, the ATA-250D and the ATA-250B. The Rhino has a lot of fancy plastics and a little lower to the ground. The 250D is basically the Rhino, but without the plastic racks and its taller. The 250B looks more Racy and smaller.
I always suggest the Rhino or 250D for practicality and usefulness factors Without racks to carry stuff, whats the point?!

The one they are showing they don't list for sale on their web page, I looked all they offer is the 300 and it is air cooled. on line.. I was at a TAOTAO dealer that is a buddy of mine today getting jets, and they do not make the 250e water cooled this year, nor do they make the 125 sport with three speed.. sucks but true.. trust me he would be selling them. I bout two of each last year,, Glad I did.. Last edited by Tonyrader; 04-10-2016 at 02:25 AM. |

Looks like tons of fun and a great area to ride and explore.

Roketa arrived
Roketa 250 Water-cooled quad. Boy was I worried when I unwrapped the plastic from the shipping crate. How do they beat them up so bad. Only a few minor scratches. Had some goo on the side of the engine also, turned out to be the coolant which leaked out. Bike went together pretty well for Chinese. Started right up and runs great. Wife is happy. Sold her Hawk for $1100 and that is exactly what I paid for the quad from www.dfwscootersandatvs.com/. Good prices but lousy service...
