New riders

Well the grandkids came over yesterday evening , and the first thing they did was jump on the wheelers and ask if they could ride them.

I showed them how to start and shift them, and told them to go out in the vacant field out back and ride and don’t come back until you are ready to park them. lol
My daughter ask if I showed them where the brakes were at, and I said no, but I did tell them if one of them got killed for the other one to come and tell us. lol

After a while I took the artic cat out and checked on them, The oldest was just sitting there on my new to me old 350 fourtrax. I thought she was haveing trouble, but she said she killed it because it was getting hot and was letting it cool down.
It was not getting hot, but it has an oil leak around the valve cover and when it gets on the exhaust, you can smell it.
It made me proud that a 13 year old girl had enough sense to stop when she thought it was getting hot.
They played for a couple of hours, and were doing pretty good, it won’t be long before they will be ready to take to some trails.
