Congrats, Jake! I have 5 granddaughters and 2 grandsons riding right now. It's funny how we're even more excited about it, than they are! Little ones just look so adorable, peeking out through a full-faced helmet.

Is that a real bike with motor and all?

How cool!

Make sure she has all the protection she can hold, if it is a real bike. She's too precious to get hurt. Because, you know, she trusts you. Remember that.

Hey RonK

It is a real bike. Its a 49cc 2 stroke.
She wears all the gear and I got a pink jacket with armour coming.
She is a bit skittish right now but we are taking it really slow going at her comfort pace. I would never force it on her but she does want to do everything PaPa does.

Hey Arch

I have know idea who its made by. I assume its Chinese. I bought it from a guy off the side of the road for $100. It was all rust and crome so I took it down and rebuilt it. I put another $85 in it in materials. The helmet cost more than the bike.
Just saw your second post and yes it is an automatic. It has a torque converter. It is also electric start with a pull start backup.
