Baja ATV – 90cc

by Nick Harris

Baja ATV owners already know this but the Baja 90cc is a fun little all terrain vehicle. I had the pleasure of enjoying a BBQ lunch with my good friend Bill this afternoon and his two sons, age 13 and 14, we’re having a blast motoring around the backyard on two of Baja ATVs. He bought the first quad in 2005 and the other is a 2007 Baja ATV and besides needing to fix one flat tire they have been 100% problem free.

Baja ATVs are manufactured by Baja Motorsports and are currently available from Pep Boys in the US as well as Canadian Tire in Canada. Different models years may vary but in general the Baja ATV has a 4-stroke 89.9cc engine rated at between 6.5 and 7.1 BHP (Base Horsepower). The Baja ATV requires the use of SAE 10W30 oil. In cold weather SEA 10W50 can be used but remember to change the oil back to 10W30 for summer.

Overall, after having watched two teen aged boys ride around on them for over 45 minutes and listened to my friend Bill rave about them, I’d recommend this fun little quad to anyone in the market. Please make sure to keep them well maintained and to follow local age laws and safety laws and they could very well last you for years.

Parts are relatively inexpensive and it has a starting price in the $580.00 range.
