I’ve got one on the way. It’ll be here either tomorrow or next Friday. Although I rode it today and when it’s warmed up the bog is much better.

No update. I just love this quad. Left some ruts doing power slides in the yard. Oops. Definitely have to let it sit and idle for a good 5-10mins and warm up. Once you do that, the bog is pretty much gone but still there.

Seems the bog off idle with a quick throttle stab is a common thing. I’ve tried the tricks to fix it but no luck. An interesting difference is this zoom zoom carb has the accelerator pump spraying directly down the throat while the OEM carb sprays at the side. But other than the quick throttle...

I dunno. I can’t imagine a stock bike needing a jet kit. I just know it shouldn’t bog like it does. At least I’ve got it to where it’s easier to drive around. I’m going to try and clean the stock carb and see if maybe I can resurrect it and put it back on there.

Fiddled with this thing some more. Did the pen spring thing. Not sure if it did anything. I just sat there and kept spinning the air/fuel screw back and forth and stabbing the throttle and I got it to where it won’t just outright die, but it coughs and keeps going. Idle sounds high though...

@ZOOMZOOMPARTS I’m having trouble with this carb. At idle if I stab it, it dies. Idles fine. Roll into the throttle slowly and it’s fine. But a quick hit and it just dies. It’s a bit of a pain trying to come off the clutch having to feather the throttle. The accelerator pump is working and...

Got to ride it for the first time and I’m glad I didn’t get a bigger bike. This thing is fast and fun. I really gotta fiddle with the carb because that stutter I mentioned earlier is way more pronounced trying to ride it. I think it’s the accelerator pump. Need to do the valve stem cap mod and...

So much better looking. Picking my battery up this afternoon. So close to first ride.

Tires showed up today. Ordered 4 tires and 5 showed up. Only charged for 4. Thanks rockymountain for the spare. And yes, those are the factory dunlop’s it rolled off the showroom floor with in 2003.

Got bored waiting on tires so I upgraded the shifter. Before: After: Tires will be here tomorrow and I should be riding it by the weekend.

We’ll see how they do. I can always change them later if needed.

Went ahead and bought them. Got our first trip planned for the weekend of the 11th and want to get these in sooner so I can drive the bike and make sure it’s running good.

Looking at getting the CST Ambush in 22x10-9 in the rear and the Holeshot XC in 22x7-10 for the front. Most of the riding I do is deer lease with a bit of mud and rocky loose silty stuff. I can get all 4 tires from Rocky Mountain for $311 shipped. Thoughts? I need the ground clearance more than...

For sure. Probably looks worse because it’s been sitting so long. On another note, way to many tire choices for these bikes.

Did an oil change on it today and I’m not sure how old it is but there was definitely some sludge and stuff in the filter. Got the new carb, new filter, new air filter, new spark plug, new clutch cable, new throttle cable, new oil filter, and new oil. Turned the key and she fired right off and...

Waiting on a few parts to come in. Swapped out the clutch and throttle cables with motion pros. Took the carb off and wow. Thing is junked up. Had to pull the needle out with pliers. Glad my zoom zoom carb came in today. Before anyone says anything, I’ve got a zoom zoom on my 125 and my 50 and...

Mechanical timing might be fine but ignition timing might be off. I’m not familiar with the ignition system of this machine but I know there’s a pick up somewhere that triggers the spark. That timing is what sounds like is off.

Check valve lash? Back firing like that is generally a timing thing. This sounds like ignition timing is off.

Sounds like timing to me.

Thanks. The tires are for sure original haha.
