If you're using a click n go 2 plow system how do you like them? Just installed one on a 500 King Quad along with a set of Commander XTR tracks and I'm lovin it

Looks like a a great project - And I see a fellow stogie man 😎 Any particular favs? 

with the right growing environment my 95 KingQuad blossomed into this fine looking 2010 KingQuad 500 AXI. (really!) Patience pays off. Now to grow a set of tracks ;)

I certainly didn't say it was pretty but here it is. It works well for me I hope this only comes up with one picture for some reason every time I try and post it add to another picture dammit

I gotta get me some of thide extenders for the air fuel adjust - nice

I don't know what I was doing but after I tightened the slack on the shift cable all is well I'm a shiften in comfort

Runs good if there's a back pressure problem drill another hole very quiet now

well here it is. I tacked it in 4 places and a quick paint job. Sounds great

That is exactly what I'm going to do to my muffler. Will look good flat black. Good idea.

it's quite snug on there but going to tack it with the mig. Drilled some concentric holes and it sounds nice

Haven't got a service manual for this yet so I'm flying by the seat of my pants I made myself a shifter extension to go up by the gas tank took my foot shifter off to weld it and now when I put it back on I don't seem to be able to find neutral. Is there some asinine reason that you have to do something internally when you change or remove the foot shifter? It was a simple take off weld put back on and dog bite my pecker it's not working. I hope this is something simple I've done and that's something I need brain surgery for. Cheers fellas I know y'all will have the right answers

Custom by Campbell, outstanding roadside chili and when you're done you can use the can LOL. Seriously though I'm looking for a muffler as well so I'm interested in following this post closely

ok still not perfect  but the exhaust is not great for starters -  it's idling reasonably well as can be heard here.And yes as you can see I left it running in first

yea i'm just under2 turns. I gotta remove sh** to get back at it now

still got a slight popping at the carb and a miss at low rpm - stalling on idle. Air fuel mixture??

1.5  / 1.75 turns approximately. Took it for a boot yesterday and it is very responsive to the throttle and idles about 800(by ear) so I think I'm good ? I'll do a little vid today.

Well I think this is idle-pic attached. It now runs fine.

That's the problem, the idle cam isn't touching the adjustment screw but it's revving to high...

Adjusting the carburetor won’t be difficult. It’s just a matter finesse.  What did you set the fuel air mixture screw at ? It should be in the range of 1-3/4 turns out from a snug tight position as a starting point. Then slowly turn the fuel air mixture screw out until the engine starts to rev up. Keep going until the rev starts to break up a bit or reach its best point  then turn the screw back Just a hair. 

If the bike is revving high lower the idle screw to a happy spot and see how it runs. 

 

 

used a electricians tri tap to gradually learn it's threads -it's all good. I put it on this morning and the blue smoke is gone but the carbs popping (lean?) and reving too high with the idle adjuster not even touching the cam. This is where I ask for help. Attached a small clip of her purring. Off to town but going to bring back some refreshments and work on it this afternoon. Hopefully one of you fine gentlemen will have a solution for me..Cheers

So nice to see pride of workmanship when working on a used bike for the first time....Anyways rebuild is done will install in the morning

very informative- tx

as the topic says I'm interested in brands of mufflers ur using. I want a quiet (drive up on moose quiet) but performance type. Whos got what? Mines seen better days

Now I need some settings and maybe the "what not to do for Gods sake" before I start dis-assembling. Anything guys. I see there is an idle adjust cable Is there any other settings on this carb? My drain screw appears well used

if you replace the valve seals, I would recommend new valves as well as the old ones sometimes have a hard time re-setting into the head.  Also, I have had two bikes with aftermarket carbs and am satisfied with how they perform.  I say they are worth a shot at least, but @Frank Angerano and@06kfx440 have much more experience than i do.

oood points Jacob Tx

I'll try that Frank - I use the soap test for so many things. A 50/50 mix with water in a sprayer knocks down hornets, wasps etc . Not just a mechanics tool

Good idea by rebuilding.   Nothing like the real deal. If you need any help let us know.  Take a compression reading and see how that goes.   Maybe just valve seals might be in order.   

gotta get the proper adapter for my compression tester - the universals got dry rot . Its been over 30 years since I used it.. I got an 'All Balls ' rebuild kit directly from the Suzuki dealer. Now I got to wait to find a manual to get the settings.

I would say for your best bet, buy oem. You can't go wrong. Off shore carbs work but you'll never truly dial it in.

Well I went to the dealer and he suggested the All Balls rebuild kit so I picked one up
