2006 Suzuki z50 help and need new seat

[swensy7]

Hey all new to the forum.... We ended up picking up a 2006 Suzuki z50 quad sport and took it camping this weekend. The guy said had a new top end and just put on a new belt. Seem to work fine for a little bit and then it lost power at the rear wheels. Belt was not in bad shape took a look but it just did not seem to have enough power to get my little guy moving. I pick up the rear end tires would go. Set it down lacked all power.   Any help would be greatly appreciated it did run like a top also.      To add to the bad news on the way home I ended up losing the seat so if anybody has one even if it's in rough shape would love to get it or if you have any ideas open to suggestions......

Lot of variables to work through here.  Make sure fuel is clean and water free, carb is clean, air filter not stopped up, carb jets clean, spark plug clean, then on to transmission slip, brakes partially engaged. 

Happy to help, just need a bit more info to start with.

So it looks like it was an elevation issue, we were at 8500 feet, when back in town worked fine but still a big luggish.  going to look at belt this week.   Still need a Seat, any help there??

None on Ebay, so that sucks.  Can get OEM from Partzilla but they're $300.  That's a tough one if you can't find a parts bike anywhere.  Even if you made the seat pan from fiberglass you'll still need hardware.  Good luck on that one, wish I could help more.  There weren't a ton of the mini quads made so the aftermarket isn't that huge.

I have an LTZ50 2006 model and it performed a lof better when I put the LTZ90 CDI box on it. It allows the RPMs to double thus more MPH and fun for my kids
