Hello everyone this is my first post. I'm diving head first into karting with zero experience (after pressure from my in-laws to buy my 9 and 7 yr old boys an ATV, I chose the buggy route instead for safety concerns). Just received my 2015 150cc TaoTao Targa 150 in factory packaging and embarking upon assembly today. Luckily the retailer I bought from has pretty thorough assembly instructions on YouTube. I'm not a mechanic by any means but handy enough (with lots of help from YouTube) to do this right and introduce myself and my boys to maintaining a vehicle like this.

OP thank you for starting this thread! There seems to be very little on the web / YouTube about this particular buggy (probably because its a new model). Your documenting your experiences will be hugely helpful to me and others I'm sure.

How to spend it?
OP, have you upgraded your air intake yet? If so would you be willing to share details on components?

I'm also planning to install a clear fuel filter. Other than that, with proper break-in and oil changing, eventually a new battery and air intake, can anyone give a total buggy noob like me any other recommendations for basic / cheap / up-front upgrades?

Thanks!
