Review : TAO TAO Raptor 200 ATV - Is it worth it?

[@willpuchalsky8900]

I have a 2021 Tao Motor Bull 200. Basically the the same bike was in the video. I ended up blue loctiting all nuts and bolts. Made a huge difference.

[@bryangrim6021]

Good and appreciated review!

[@cannotcostsmorethancan]

thanls for the review and to your followers in the thread here , for the tips . I am purchasing one of these for my baby sister but think i will go with the tao tao 150 as I don't want her taking off too fast and will only be on our four and half acre piece of land .

[@Sparrowhawk187]

Nice review. I 've had mine for a couple of years and have had most of the problems you have had. Add a washer or two where that swing arm axle bolt is so you can crank that bolt down. Also watch the bolts that hold the rear sprocket to the axle. They tend to come loose too. Bought a new chain that was more heavy duty and it seemed to slow down on how often I have to adjust the chain tension, too. Overall, I'm pretty happy with it since I got it for 1400 new in the December before the pandemic started in the USA.

[@johnoswald6192]

Great review. Thanks.

[@Beatdowncaptain1]

I've had this quad for 2 years now going on 3. I haven't had many issues. If there was any issues it was minor. I only have some issues when it comes to parts, I could not get an air filter in town from where the atv was purchased but one location had a different air filter that worked just the same. Some bolts that have come loose and needing re tightening. Biggest issue I have is the gear box oil plug is located right behind the exhaust pipe tube which I cannot get to so I'll have to take it in to get it changed and pay the hourly service fee.

Will be looking at a similar one on Monday, 200cc Hi-bird with plates. Listed for $400 with some work that needs to be done, but it starts and runs

[@user-qz5zd9on8n]

Great video

[@kylelee8439]

I have gad mine for 1 year and 658 miles on it and have not had any problems with it run good starts every time even has to original battery

[@zacmarshall1739]

Good video, thank you

[@carlf8224]

glad to see you back! stop teasing me with the audi!! still trying to source a 6.0L for my 04' A8

[@jonamond]

Lol

[@kenrodriguez9645]

Seems like when you buy one, you just just loosen every bolt, loctite it, and torque them all down. Nice review, some other guys on youtube have experienced the same thing and said "DO NOT BUY, IT'S A PIECE OF JUNK." I guess it depends on your affinity to work on it. As a comparison a Honda TRX250 is $5,000 new. I mean if I had a Tao Tao and once every 3-4 gastanks I had to go tighten a bolt or grab some hardware from the store, and end up saving $4000, then yeah I'm gonna do it.

[@jonamond]

Once you get the bugs worked out, it’s not to bad. Surprised the motor hasn’t blown up honestly.

[@jamesgardner395]

Why do think the motor is going to blow up?

[@texashillcountryadv9197]

I got mine for 1100 on a 50% off sale at camping world definitely worth it at that price

[@meoff1969]

The rubber hose should definitely be taken off because the overflow of the carburetor will go straight to the hot pipe and it does that after shutdown mainly if it happens at all

[@russianbot1779]

Picked this up at rural king for 1k new. It was missing the starter and key, I think they lost it. I think it normally goes for around 3k

[@scottmoujalled]

Hello I bought this same atv about a month ago. The right side daytime led lights went out. Do you know how I can fix that or possibly see if something came unplugged/disconnect? Thanks

[@buildurtruckurway9118]

my sons 150 atv is basically the same unit. we put in lighter rollers and changed the torque spring in the secondary and it turns 22inch mudlites on the rear no problem in reasonable mud and snow. top speed it hits 37 mph with him but once i get on it it drops to about 33ish. it pulls as hard as my old honda trikes did so id assume if you really wanted to beat on them they could make a cheap kids mud bike with some mods.

[@dannivilladsen8008]

How heavy spring and rollers did you put in it? :) cherrs

[@beatrizbanuelos5390]

We just bought ours from someone with only 10miles on it. Supposedly it hasn’t been ran for 2yrs “because grand kids outgrew it”. We are trying to get it to stay ON, unfortunately until after purchasing it did I look into it and see that it’s a common issue in these :( any ideas what to do? We’ve already replaced some common things that may be a problem but no luck yet.

[@Theyluvv3ddyyyy]

Hey how do u take off the air intake for it?

[@759ThanielSheridan]

What muffler do u have ?

[@ylesser6096]

An installation video

[@konnerdezarn2468]

Is it a clutch

[@NSG_ELi]

Mine doesn’t have a problem

[@eddydominguez1]

How much was it?

[@jrock609]

Should be good for a 13 yr old right ?

[@sonnyc3826]

i think the problem with most chinese thing slike this for example is that theyd come assembled cheaply like loose nuts and such as Chinese arent reeally know for their quality and they are probably mass proiduce don a line assembly or soemthing but wiht soem tightening and adjustments might not be too bad..for someone who doesnt know how to fix or do such things theyd say theyre junk or itd be a hassle but for soemone who does itd be a bargian and save tonne sof money buying a cheaper chinese one..i had a tao tao e-bike and i beat the hell out of the thing and it still worked fine maybe luck of the draw. so i really have little complaints about stuff i bought form China...the big things anyway

[@AliAbdullah-oi3wc]

(2) questions. Is this comfortable for a 200lb 6ft person? Also, can myself and my cousin who is 5ft (small) fit on here both easily or will we be scrunched?

[@user-xv2iz7ix5o]

You will fit on the back where the seat is higher that is the passenger seat

[@ylesser6096]

Love the raptor got one Where can I buy that wench?

[@fatallucid8254]

How’s it doing

[@ylesser6096]

@@fatallucid8254 it's great but I find someone times the rpm stay hi when I start it up for like 3 minutes

[@fatallucid8254]

@@ylesser6096 have you messed with the carb that’s prob why

[@ylesser6096]

I never changed anything from when I got it

[@jonamond]

Not sure where to get the winch. It was already installed when I got it. Also, the high rpm I believe is the Automatic choke, I’m sure it’s normal, mine does the same thing

[@audiomonster303]

Your exhaust was cracked at the engine. quick welding job would fix it

[@Happyviews82]

I mean if you go over the whole frame and tighten everything with lock tight before you start riding it you won’t have any of those problems 🥲

[@JSmith-of5ox]

What winch did you mount?

[@jonamond]

Not sure. It a was installed before I got the quad

[@kingaxk88]

Can you drive it on public road?

[@Theyluvv3ddyyyy]

No but u can ride it in the public road if there isn’t any cars and if u d y get caught

[@Gabriel-rm6bt]

Does it do pretty good with hills ?

It dose alright

so basically its more of a full time hobby fixing it than riding it lol

[@rapermini3467]

Depends of a country you living . In Third World its cheaper to fix it in home than earn money for good ATV

[@AndrewAudio]

I had a Tao Tao 150. It is CRAP

[@deanking8492]

Yeah they're kinda dodgy I've noticed the 144cc in some brands is actually 119cc if you read it right, but one company in my country actually listed as 120cc. So that's good for my consumer point of view giving confidence in the retailer.

[@Country-tv9rk]

Thx a lot but I think I'ma pass on this four wheeler 👍🏿

[@ronniemashburn1347]

Yes I bought Coleman 200 same thing n yeah wish I was held out for better one but for dam sure the not worth the omost 3000 dollar cost for one these new

[@Fab-ec8os]

It's amazing how everyone Chinese Quad is a basic ride once and throw it away. Having that many issues in a year and your really not riding it hard how we do! Thing won't make it one ride the way we ride!

Why in the world would someone think a Tao Tao would be a good investment. Chinese junk!!!!

Funny that we have in the family a kazuma 110 panda that is 18 years old and it is still going strong.

I have 2 Chinese quads for 7 years now. Kids love them. Sure, they need minor repairs once 8n a while, but parts are really cheap
