Just brought a quad 50cc meercat for my Grandaughter, she is now 7 and her dad loves of roading etc, ive got it to run (blocked jets in carb) but when its sat on all 4 wheels the front near side (UK) is just touching the ground, if i sit on the seat its a little higher, when running it seems to not want to turn left even when the wheels are turned left, it turns right very easy, its like the front near side wheel is lifting, it is off the ground by about 2mm when its sat on, is the chassie twisted? has it had a bump? can it be brought back square by twisting the frame back with a large metal bar? thank you.

hard to tell, but almost looks and sounds like that crossmember for the front tires may have gotten bent. i would try and take some measurements with a tape and you may find the problem quickly. could even be a slight tweak on the frame at the midway point (motor/seat area) closest to the ground.

      Hi, I have been around everything with a motor since I was little, and finally purchased more to get my husband, and kids involved. I have 4 quads I will be searching around for information on. I have two 2002 Suzuki LT80K quads, a 1997 Yamaha Timberwolf 250, and a 1996 Kawasaki Bayou 220. I have had different ones throughout the years, and plan on buying another Yamaha Banshee. I plan on trying to learn more about all of them, so I can customize some of them. I know nothing about them besides how to race them, my dad always took care of the rest, but figured it was time for me to learn.

      I am new to this site. I have a 1987 Suzuki LT230S Quadsport I think. Is there a difference between quadsport and quadrunner?

      Hello All
      I'm kinda new to ATVs. I just bought a 1987 Suzuki quad runner 230 Dual Range. I'm having a problem finding info on it. It's very clean, only 2.800 miles. The front wheels are only 30 in.center to center. I was thinking about adding wheel spacers to give it more stability. I realize the added stress on ball joints and bearings. I'm wondering if there are any other concerns? Any input is greatly appreciated!

      I Crashed My Quad
      Well the Way I Ride, some of you knew it was Inevitable.
      Below are Three Videos.

      Second one is Normal Speed, and what happens after the Accident.
      Third one Follows more of what happens after .

      I Was Riding By Myself. I was going through a Mud HOLE Either there was a log or a rock, or A Dip but just as I was almost through it, Machine, Rolled over on my right side, as soon as I contacted the ground, I Heard A SNAP! I got up, flipped the Quad back over. I had the wind knocked out of me.

      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.
