Of the many Chinese manufacturers of ATVs including Stannic, Qinjiang, Long Chang, Shanghai HONWEI International, Jinyun Kayo, Ningbo Longjia, Chongqing YinGang and Chongqing Veli Technology, the most popular 70cc ATV on the market is made by Hangzhou Kun-Town and sold in the US by Yamoto Motors. You can see the factory at http://gendeer.ebigchina.com.
Many sites on the internet advertise 70cc ATVs with no brand name but the name of their site. While they may be great ATVs, where will you find parts if the website where you bought it goes away? A brand name and a recognized model name is a very important feature of an ATV - not just cc`s and a list of product specifications. Many of these unbranded ATVs and dirtbikes come from the very same factories in China and can easily interchange parts but you would never know it. Be sure to find out the name of the real manufacturer of your ATV before you buy it.
70cc ATVs hold up to a 90 pound child and go about 35 mph max. Many come with safety devices like speed limiters and remote control shut-off`s for parents.
