Thanks everybody. Actually had some trouble on my first ride. Started bogging and smoking. Oil looked foamy and airbox had alot of oil in it. Pushed it up on the trailer and took it back to the dealer. After a long night of research, and finding quite a few similar happenings, I think somehow it got overfilled with oil, and saturated the air filter/intake. Dealer changed the oil and cleaned the filter/intake tract - (while I watched, I do not trust my local dealer) - we ran it around the lot some, and then I ran it 30-40 mins more once home (pouring rain/freezing cold) and it has not repeated. The only thing that's still got me confused is that the original oil was very green. I'm pretty sure it's not coolant as I've not lost any, and it didn't have the smell. Dealer suggests that Kawi could be using a different oil. Oil looks fine since the change. I plan on calling Kawi to ask about this and to make them aware of what happened. Anybody else heard of this sort of thing? Thanks again.

I don't plan any sort of performance mods, this thing has way more power than what I need! I will upgrade the tires when they're shot for sure. They might as well be slicks! Kawi gipped us on the tires no doubt. Other than that just a winch (got the $69.00 deal) and upgrading the skid plates. Oh and some sort of luggage.

      I did a compression test on my 2005 Bombardier Traxter 650 CVT and it's 75 PSI.  service manual only talks about leak down test.  No specification for engine compression the manual.  What does 75 PSI tell me?  Thank in advance.
       
      A little history of this machine.  640 miles.  Picked it up about 2 years ago, not running. Probably the computer.  Tested all circuits and confirm it was the computer.  Long story short, I watched a Youtube video and fixed the computer. ATV now started and runs.  BUT, it tops out 20 MPH.  I cleaned the carb 3 times also using a Mikuni carb kit after the second time.  Slide in carb is going up and down.  Only adjustment for fuel is at 1.5 turns out.  NGK Sparkplug had soot on main part but brown on the electrode.  Champion sparkplug is brown.  I check CVT clutches and they both appear to engage like they suppose to.  Checked valve clearance it's 0.00, I can't get any feeler gauges in-between.  I check timing chain I believe it's in the correct position and hasn't skipped.  I removed muffler plug and drilled into muffler to try and make sure it wasn't plugged.

      My friends KQ 300 starts fine and runs, as soon as you put it in gear and try to accelerate its bucks and farts like crazy, not moving... I cleaned carb and it worked good for 1 day... now back to same problem.... could it be such as a bent valve????

      Howdy y'all, I'm trying to fix a neighbors 2015 Brute Force 300. Came in with hard to start and won't idle except on choke issue. I pulled the carb and found the pilot jet as well as the emulsion tube partially clogged. Cleaned up everything, put it back together, still having issues...  It will start right up on choke and will also start off choke if you give it just a touch of throttle but it absolutely will not idle unless it's choked just a touch. Also, excuse my ignorance but I'm assuming the "dial" thingy attached to the carb that turns in and out is for setting idle??

      I have been exploring all the options available, so many, its hard to choose. I have kind of narrowed it down to the Honda Pilot, Subaru Outback, and Kind of looking at the Outlander, although its a little small,  the new one is nice looking. Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations or gripes with any of these rides. I have driven Jeeps for the past 25  years and they have been great, but their price point has gotten to high. Expieriences good or bad would be helpful. Thanks!
