Hmmmm,,,,You said it had an over sized Carb....85-86 lt250's came with a 32mm TM Mikuni flatslide, I believe the 87 and later had a 34TM.....With a Stock motor I wouldnt go much bigger than the 34....Check your reed carge as well...

BTW....dont ever let anyone tell you that Trikes are Dangerous....:wink:

I have an 87 and have a stock bore, stock carb. I have Boysen reeds, Fatty pipe and silencer and a K&N and I am running stock jets in my carb. I have no problems with power or fouling and don't run to lean.

Start with the simple things first....Maybe just a tune up will do the trick....Have you ever checked the spark Plug???? Fouled???? If not,,,Gaped right??? Make sure you know how to read a plug too.... How about the Air Cleaner???? Plugged???? Remember....Fuel, spark and air.....FIRST!!!!!

      Has anyone had a suzuki 230 quad lock the engine up?  Its a well maintained bike, it locked up when my son was riding it. Pulled the plug, it has connected with the piston. I'm thinking the con rod let go.  I don't have a service manual.  Does the engine need to come out to check further?

      As the 2025 ATV Motocross National Championship Series (ATVMX), an AMA National Championship, got underway with back-to-back Florida AMA Pro only events, it was evident that Phoenix Racing Yamaha’s Joel Hetrick picked up where he left off last season.View the full article

      My name says it all. I have a '03 Honda Sporttrax 400EX with a new aftermarket carb on it that seems to be having issues. I can start it but it idles really rough and when I give it throttle it just kills the engine. I have tried adjusting the idle screw but to no avail. I am in the San Diego Ca area. 
      Any advice will be greatly appreciated. I would also like to get an owners manual for the thing too but can't seem to find a downloadable one.

      So I’ve got a 2000 Honda 400ex absolutely love it!! I’ve had it for about a month, I ride with bruteforce 750’s, outlander 850’s and 1000 sxs’s and I was thinking of getting a trx450r carb and a full hmf exhaust. And probably doing the air box mod too, how much power would this give my 400? Just a little different or a big difference? Cuz if it’s not much of a different I’ll just stick with my dg slip on..... thanks!

      I hadn't driven my Kodiak for a two months, and since it was low on fuel, the first thing I did was filled it up to maybe 7/8 full. Getting ready to start it, I rotated the fuel selector switch to "on" and within seconds I smelled and saw fuel dripping onto the floor. I quickly turned it off and the fuel gradually stopped - I can repeat this.
      The fuel is flowing from the hose that is connected to the bottom of the carb, and routes around to the left side toward the wheel well. Any idea what's going on here? It ran fine the last time I had it out.
      Thanks...
