hey guys i figured it was time for me to right a review now this will be based on little rides as i have not taken it on a good ride yet

Ok i have been searching cl for at least 6 months for a joyner and then it came a red 06 joyner sand viper.
So i went out to look at it and its in great condition. So i got it for 1500 all it needed was some belows and the canopy top from joyner which glade got me in no time thank you glade. So far from what i can see it rides like a catty. its bulit really tough and it came with a cover and tool kit how cool is that. Another cool thing was it already has a bracket for the whip/flag mount that is soo nice.

I will do a better review when i get some more time on it but for now i love it
and thanks glade your da best

So it looks like you still have the roketa. How abought a comparison. I have been telling people forever that different 250s are like night and day. How does the roketa compare to the joyner.

hahaha it dosent even compare with my joyner its great after the first run i needed to do nothing on the roketa well lots still to do the roketa torque was better because it did not have low but in low the joyner will kill the roketa i cant say much about the ride of either but the joyner seams softer i only got to ride the roketa one time for a good ride it was good i liked it the nicest thing about the roketa is all of the room in it its a beast as i call it now the beast the joyner is a little more cramped but seam to be worth it so far now this is kinda a lean toward the joyner i really dont know how the roketa would have been if i bought it like the joyner i bought the roketa wrecked and the joyner almost in new condition


so yah i agree with ya vanet there is a night and day difference but for me as of now the thing that i really love about the joyner is i can get parts so easily
for the roketa joe @ desertoys and i are alway waiting for the parts form the distributor nope not with the joyner glade got them to me right away
and just to be clear i am not knocking joe he trys his best roketa slows him down
sorry to ramble but i love my new buggy

i only got to ride the roketa one time for a good ride

That is kinda my point Some brands you hardly ever get to ride and some you hardly ever need to fix. The titans need fixed almost every ride and the joyners hardly ever need anything fixed. But people call them all 250s and assume they are all the same. I think the 150s karts where more similar and people got used to 150 being pretty much like any other. But in the 250 catagory even brand names dont help because people like roketa, sunl, and some others made several different designs some of which were pretty good and some of which were garbage. Im glad the Joyner working out I will keep preaching my buy a used Joyner to people it seems to be working out well for several people including me. Very Happy [/quote]

Van I've got to tell ya. I bought this barely used Joyner 250 and about 1 1/2 months ago and it's pretty much clean and lube. I had a problem with the cooling but I just hard wired the fans and problem solved. I still have the thermostat and temp sensor I bought from Glade. I 2 agree Glade is a pleasure to work with.

hey guys i made my first ride on the joyner today it ran great i got everything working like the fans and that kinda stuff i got the top on it and it looks good
i found a little mud and got it all dirty but as soon as i got home i washed it and forgot to take pics sorry
now for more comparison with the roketa this thing ride like a catty amazing i love it and i had my first ride that when i got back i did not need to fix and thin i am so happie about that the only thing that i would say the joyner needs help in is a little more torque in hi gear other than that is sweet
