Petrol quads

Kids' Petrol Quads for Serious Off-Road Riding

Petrol-powered quads give older, more experienced young riders a genuine step up in power and range compared with battery models, giving them a taste of proper off-road performance while still being scaled and speed-limited for younger users. Whether you're after a starter petrol quad for a first move away from electric ride-ons, a sturdier model for regular use on rougher terrain, or something with a bit more engine capacity for a confident teenager, FastDaddyshop stocks kids' petrol quads to suit a range of ages and riding experience. On our site you can order entry-level 50cc quads with speed limiters restricting output to around 15–20 mph for ages 8–12, and larger 90–110cc models for older, more experienced riders on private land.

Choosing a kids' petrol quad: what our customers ask most

• What age is suitable for a petrol quad? Our consultants often advise starting with a 50cc, speed-limited model from around age 8, moving to larger 90–110cc quads only once a child has genuine off-road experience and adult supervision remains close, typically from age 12 upwards. From the experience of FastDaddyshop's managers, engine size should always be matched to riding experience rather than age alone.
• Where is it legal to ride a kids' petrol quad in the UK? In practice, these quads are intended for private land only, not public roads, pavements or bridleways, so we'd flag an expert caution: always confirm you have explicit permission to ride on the land in question before use, and ensure a properly fitted helmet is worn every time.
• Do petrol quads come with a speed limiter? From experience, most models aimed at younger riders include an adjustable speed limiter that can be set lower while a child builds confidence, then increased gradually as skill develops. Our managers have found this feature particularly reassuring for parents during the first few months of ownership.

Once you've chosen the right petrol quad, it's worth thinking about the wider range of off-road options available. Many of our customers also browse kids' electric quads for a quieter, lower-maintenance alternative, petrol scooters for a different riding style, or kids' petrol dirt bikes for those wanting two wheels instead of four.
