Now here’s a special little quad bike for you little Evel Knievel – newly launched for 2024 by Hawkmoto is the Challenger, and this little quad bike packs a punch. The Hawkmoto Challengeris brimmed with parental and child safety features. When looking for a kid’s quad bike surely this is key.
The Hawkmoto Challenger has a remote cut-off fob so you can be sure you are in full control even when stood on the sidelines. We were all amazed here at Hawkmoto when this quad bike arrived it’s solid and chunky and can only be described as a little tank.
With a seat height of 72cm its ideal for kids from 6-16 years old up to 95kg in weight. The 125cc engine is fully restrictable so you can control what max speed is possible and there is a safety tether on the handlebars to wrap around the child’s wrists in the unlikely event that they were to come off it to cut the engine.

YOUR QUAD BIKE WILL COME ASSEMBLED – PLEASE ALLOW 2 WORKING DAYS IN ADDITION TO NORMAL DELIVERY TIMESCALES FOR ASSEMBLEY AND CHECKS.
2 Stroke mini quads and mini bikes mix fuel at 25:1 Ratio using a quality semi synthetic 2 stoke motorcycle oil. DO NOT USE GARDENING OR MOWER 2 STROKE OIL it fouls the plug and causes the bike to misfire, bog out and not start.
4 Stroke 110cc and 125cc use straight unleaded fuel and replace engine oil as below
IMPORTANT! CHAIN ADJUSTMENT
Before First Ride
- Loosen rear axle & adjust chain tension. Find tightest point in chain by spinning rear wheel, there should 15mm up & 15mm down at the longest section of chain with rider sat on bike. Ensure chain runs true & is on top of chain roller if your models has one.
- You can ensure chain runs true by eye then by straightening the front wheels and measuring from wheel rim front to wheel rim rear and repeating on opposite side the measurements should be same both sides. If this measurement is out your axle needs aligning and your chain will come off as its not running true.
When aligning chains its important to loosen off the top and bottom axle bolts before attempting the chain adjusters otherwise you will thread the adjusters as it tries to pull a fixed solid axle. Chain adjusters must be adjusted evenly on both sides to keep the axle square otherwise you risk throwing your chain off and damaging your engine.
Chain tension must be done with the rider on the quad bike as each rider weight will change the chain tension needed.
Nut and Bolt Check
- Working from front to rear, ensure all nuts & bolts are tight. Where no nyloc nuts or spring washers are present, ensure thread-locking compound has been used. If none has been used during factory assembly, remove nut or bolt, apply locking compound & re-tighten. Pay particular attention to the following critical safety areas: Wheel nuts, brake calliper bolts (thread lock), Top & rear engine bolts (frame must be hard tight against the engine, use thread lock), chain tensioners, rear shock bolts, handlebar clamp bolts (yokes), Handlebars, brake/ clutch/throttle, swing-arm, front & rear sprocket, Exhaust Bracket Bolts,
- Check all engine hardware is tight, (including but not exclusive): flywheel, inlet manifold, exhaust bolts,
- Fully ensure nothing is touching the exhaust system including fuel lines are tied away.
- Ensure all cables and pipes & wiring are away from moving components such as the wheels, use cable ties where necessary
- Fuel bike & check for fuel leaks
Fill and Check oil level with quad bike in upright position using dipstick. Top up with Lucus Oil 10W 40 semi synthetic motorcycle oil, if necessary
- Adjust tension for both clutch & throttle cables
- Ensure wheels are tight & wheels run true
- Start engine & warm up (using choke if necessary). Set idle speed so engine ticks over comfortably without stalling or racing
(bearing in mind that the pads will need to bed in prior to optimum performance
1 HOUR SERVICE – EXTREAMLY IMPORTANT
- Remove Transport Oil & replace with Lucus Oil 10w 40 4-stroke engine oil
- Re-Adjust throttle cable & clutch cable if required
- Re-tension chain as this will stretch in the first hours of use. This will need continual monitoring.
- Check wheel bearings for any sign of wear of free-play
- Check Engine Idle Speed and adjust if necessary
- Check brake calliper operation & brake pad wear
- Check tyre pressures 4-6 psi
RIDING TIPS FOR LONG ENGINE LIFE – IMPORTANT
Every 4 hours use.
- Do not use the gears when the bike is in motion.
- Check all nuts & bolts & tighten where necessary as above PDI
- Re-Adjust throttle cable & clutch cable if required
- Re-tension chain as this will stretch in the first hours of use. This will need continual monitoring.
- Check wheel bearings for any sign of wear of free-play
- Check brake calliper operation & brake pad wear
- Check spark plug gap ~0.6mm-0.7mm
- Check tyre pressures 4-6 psi
PROBLEM SOLVING
- No spark – Either poor earth or faulty Rotor Coils/CDI/Coil/Lead/Cap/Plug – use moving coil mustimeter to diagnose
- Fuel leaks from overflow – Floats set incorrectly or blocked by debris or sticking
- Engine runs fine, but then starts to misfire – faulty rotor coils/CDI/Coil/Plu
- Engine will not tick over when warm – readjust the engine idle
- Engine will not return to idle & races – sticking throttle cable or idle incorrectly set on the carb.
STORAGE.
- It is advisable to fully service and lubricate the bike prior to leaving the bike unused/unattended for any length of time.
- It is advisable to fully drain the tank and carb of fuel prior to leaving the bike unused/unattended for any length of time.
BUILT QUAD BIKES
Where quad bikes have been pre-assembled you are still required to
- Nut and bolt check the quad bike before use.
- Check chain tension is suitable for the weight of the rider.
- Follow the 1 hour and 4 Hour service
49cc Mini Dirt Bikes and Mini Quad Bikes
98% of problems are caused by incorrect fuel mixture and incorrect 2 stroke oil used. Mix at 25:1 ratio or debris blockage of the fuel tap.
Use a quality semi synthetic motorcycle 2 stroke oil and not gardening 2 stoke oil as gardening 2 stroke is a completely different compound of oil and clogs the spark plugs up and causes them to be difficult to start
NEVER YANK THE PULL STARTER WITH FORCE – You will snap the pull cord and these are not a warranty item. Small short pulls are all you need as the pull start is spring assisted.
Unfortunately ” it was already frayed when it arrived” is an excuse we hear of everybody who snaps them. We build and start 100s of mini bikes a week and never snap pull starts.
They only snap in frustration normally because the oil mix is wrong and your relentlessly yanking at it.
