Did not thoroughly read what the others said, but you had best be careful, very careful on that thing, well until you get used to it. From what I recall, takes a mile to turn, and when you screw up you get tossed, hint... taking a turn too fast, you get my drift ?
I'll be willing to bet though, and as much as I'd prefer the type of the 4 wheel variety, give er some time, you might get comfortable on it once you get the feel of it. I never did, say about 18 years ago, after returning to the yard where the guy I worked for kept the trucks and equipment, they was a foolin with one of those, so bright me gets on it and( mind you 2 or 3 friends had these, was no stranger too em) but for the life of me I could just not get the hang of riding the darned thing. I did have a great time getting tossed, catching my feet, turnin over, LOL, they are different that is for sure.
Oil in the crankcase has to be under a small cover, side of engine, should use a filter element, if it's like most 2 stroke atv engines, chain drive ? Not sure about the rear end.
Looks like the front has a little suspension, but the rear ??? You will want to adjust the air pressure in those tires to your liking, and you will figure out that over-inflating them will drastically change how it performs.
I have a little Suzuki LT 125 quad for getting in and around tight places, kind of small but it is about the handiest little thing to get around the place, I can get through unbroken, (no trail) brush and woods like threading a needle, get it stuck, can pick the thing up easily, deep mud and water is about the only place I won't take it. Has those type of tires and no suspension, but will climb over obstacles and rarely gets hung up, lot of times, you do a small wheely, get the front end up and light, back end will follow over a 12" log. Very handy to pack a chainsaw and tools to work on anything around the property lines, sips the gas, probably run a real long time.
Link below, should be able to get most anything for it, although it looks like it was never ridden much, it's in really nice shape. This site should have a complete parts diagram posted for it if you need to look up something and don't have the book for it.

Today's Featured Article - Tuning-Up Your Tractor: Plugs & Compression Testing - by Curtis Von Fange. The engine seems to run rough. In the exhaust you can hear an occasion 'poofing' sound like somethings not firing on all cylinders. Under loaded conditions the tractor seems to lack power and it belches black smoke out of the exhaust. For some reason it just doesn't want to start up without cranking and cranking the starter. All these conditions can be signals that your unit is in need of a tune up. Ok, so what is involved in a tune up? You say, swap plugs and file the points....now tha
