Hi bought a 2012 kingquad ASI last year a great machine which is a delight to ride, but I find sometimes it doesn’t go into top gear just revs high at about 42mph. Any idea ???

Great pic!  Looks like a Suzuki commercial or advertising pic. 
Just curious, are you on the throttle while shifting or off the throttle? 
Does the shifter not even come up or hard to come up? 
Reason I'm asking is it may just be a clutch adjustment or maybe the belt ?

Oh its full automatic.  No shifter, ok got it. Not really up to speed on Suzuki bikes yet.  I just picked up my first Suzuki this year and boy that one was a pain in the as* to fix. So far not a fan mechanically.  As far as design they look great.  I assume it goes into the top gear for the most part and other times it just gets stuck?

Yea it’s only happened maybe twice but still worrying. It’s a lovely bike to ride and a real work horse too I know you guys tend to have the bigger quads out there but this is great for its size.

      I was looking to buy a new ATV. 
      I was debating between Polaris sportsman 450 and Honda rancher.
      Polaris it a bit cheaper.
      But can you tell me which one will have more demand on the used market? Which one will keep it's value better?
       
      Let's say 3-5 years from now.

      I have a 2007 kingquad 450 fuel injection. I try to start it with the hand crank and almost flip over the quad. I have taken the hand crank off and cleaned it but this did not fix the problem. I believe there is a decompression valve that is supposed to engage when pulling it over by hand. How can I check this?

      I wanted to share a successful workaround for a "no-spark" issue on a 2009 LT-A400.
      This is specifically for cases where the CDI has been diagnosed as faulty, but the age or condition of the machine makes the cost of a brand-new OEM unit hard to justify.
      Note: This modification compromises the factory “no-start” circuits.
      On some malfunctioning CDI units the internally damaged circuitry is only partial.
      Feeding full time power to the Parking Brake pin, the unit is triggered to bypass the internal fault and produce a healthy consistent output to the Ignition coil.
      The Modification
      See the second diagram attached below for the wiring specifics.
      The Result:
      The machine has clocked over 1,000km since this repair and is still running strong with no ignition dropouts.
      ⚠️ IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNING ⚠️
      Please be aware that this modification compromises the factory safety "no-start" circuits.
      The machine will now start in gear. The safety interlock involving the handbrake is no longer functional. The machine can move unexpectedly if the starter is pressed while in gear. Proceed at your own risk. If you sell the machine or let others ride it, ensure they are fully aware that these factory safety buffers have been removed.

      Okay so I bought this 1997 sazuki king quad from a guy and he had it for a few years. 
      He had it registered and on the trails last year but he said it bogged and backfired when he would try to drive it. so it sat for a year. 
      I bought it for 800 bucks and got it running that night and it ran great for a few days 
      But I parked it the other night and went to start it again and it was really hard to fire up and when I did it was bogging and idling high then low again.
      So I took the carb out and cleaned it (ended up doing it twice because it was still doing the same thing) 
      Now today I have it running slightly better, but it is still like 20% 
      I have been looking it up and trying to figure it out but I can't find the issue, has anyone else had this problem? I'll attach a video of it running and giving some throttle
