Just bought a low use 2017 Artic cat Alterra 500 TRV for my house in PA.  Never owned a quad before but had a blast on the roads and minor trails today in NEPA.  Back on Long Island where I live normally,  is not a place to have one of these.  After today I have a feeling I might be shopping for a second one for the wife!

Long island is tough to find riding. I was born on LI and have family there but now live up in Putnam county, which is also a bit tough but better for riding. Where in PA? Welcome to QC!

I keep it at a community called Masthope in Lackawaxen PA.  We are allowed to drive the streets and they have trails in spring and summer (in winter they are for cross country skiing.

Thats interesting in my state you can register it with a title they will take your money but you still can't ride it on the road legally. They said to be road worthy had to have DOT approved tires and seat belt so asked why do I not need a seat belt on my motorcycle he said because it has 2 wheels if it has 4 it needs a seat belt that's crazy. I think they make stuff up as they go along.

NY is the same.  In PA I can not ride it on state or county roads,  but the community is all private roads so if it is insured and titled to me,  I am allowed to use it on the roads in the community.

      98 arctic cat 300 2x4 hi rev choke when started
      By Its-always-something
      Have a 1998 AC 300 2x4, Just installed a new carburetor. Engine starts easy but the choke RPMs are very hi and take along time (5-10 mins when cold out). After engine has warmed up choke releases and it idles and runs fine., It does no have an electric choke. The choke lever is never used and it seems like an auto choke? Long story short, how can I lower the choke rpm levels?
       
      Also, carb came with a spare145 jet, not 100% sure what is installed. Could this impact choke RPMs?
       
       
      Any help and information greatly appreciated.

      Anyone use Niche parts?
      By Charlesbrown
      I’m looking for a top end kit for a Yamaha. I would like to see how well the engine runs before spending $6-$7 hundred on oem. Niche has complete kits from $1-$2 hundred.  Anyone have experience with Niche or similar Chinese companies?

      1990 Suzuki King Quad 300cc Kicks and bucks when accelerating unless ignition switch is in LIGHT position.
      By Tuzz
      Bucking started about a month ago and works ok after 1/2 hour warmup.  Today while working on it i discovered that if i put the ignition switch in LIGHT position it runs fine right from the start.
      I'm stumped!  Any idea why this could be?
