I'd say all made in China. That by itself really isn't what the problem is in giving the China stuff a bad name. The problem is the inconsistency between manufacturers there. In particular, its the quality of the metal they use. I've seen China four wheelers that last for 1 jump and the shock mount breaks right off. Same thing with the buggies. I've seen some where the metal just won't hold up to the slightest stress and then others that have held up for years. I am a fan of American Sportworks because in our experience the manufactures that they have chosen use good metal. We put all of our Helix machines through quite a bit and they were fantastic machines.

Their carbs are another great example. You'd think that all GY6 carbs were created equal but that statement couldn't be farther from the truth. Our jetting experiences were enough to prove that real quick. One carb likes a 40 main jet the next one wants a 108 with both producing the same result. Just amazing!
