    Hiya guys,

    I hope this is the right place to be asking this. I got my son a python 50 cc quad for Xmas but I can't get it started. I know there's a killswitch on it and I'm hoping that this is causing the problem. I tried looking around for information about it but couldn't find any. There's power in the battery but it's just not starting. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    If the link above is no good for you then bang an email off to this crowd in Germany and they may provide you with an English PDF manual.

    If it's a manual you may have to pull the clutch in to start it, even in neutral. If it's an auto then pull the front brake while starting. It won't be the sidestand switch anyway ;) very dodgy to buy any vehicle you haven't seen running and preferably started from cold first go.

    Quads are much more dangerous than offroad bikes imho.

    Scrap the cap!
