Hello from CT
Hey everyone,
I recently picked up a TaoTao ata250d. I'm new to ATV riding and wanted to pick something up that was affordable and that I could use around the yard. So far it has been great. I've been lurking on the forum a bit and decided to say hello. With the help of posts here I did some modifications already. Here is what I've done so far: 14 Tooth front sproket with new 428 chain. NGK spark plug High performance ignition coil High Flow intake PZ30 Carb (came with the pz27) Custom exhaust (Basically same size Pepboys car exhaust with the stock end cap welded on) I have to say that with all that done it really made a difference. I really like the 14 tooth sprocket. Don't really need high speed in the yard or trail. At any rate, I'm have a great time with my chinese quad and am happy I bought it. I"ll post up some pictures later. Brian |

Welcome!
Did you re-jet the PZ30? Looking forward to the pics.

Not yet, I have the needle on the bottom slot and the mixture screw 2 and 1/2 open. The plug is a bit dark so I can probably lean that up a bit. I haven't really been able to do any WOT stuff (way to much snow everywhere) so I'll have to see how the main jet does once I can. |

Here are some pictures. I also took off the front rack as I don't really need it and I think it looks better. You can also see the exhaust that I made from parts of the stock exhaust. Only that one has a 2 inch straight through center instead of those half inch pipes with baffles in the stock.

Welcome to the forum!
I spent 4 years in New Haven and Norwalk. I really liked Connecticut. Nice place!

Nice looking machine! 8) It looks like you have the same rear axle as the Gio Beast; take a look at this post on rear axle service: http://www.chinariders.net/modules.p...wtopic&t=10680

I'll have to keep the axle write up in mind. That looks to be exactly what I have. Thanks! |
