Welcome Adam. I joined recently and have found help with my 2004 Suzukin LT80. Lots of good resources.

Thanks @Mech and @Gwbarm. I think that I'll go ahead and give the reeds a try and hopefully post the results in a few weeks.

Thanks Gwbarm. I have the carburetor off right now, replacing the gaskets, and I figured I might as well take advantage. And they aren’t too expensive.

Has anyone used the Boyesen Power Reeds on their LT80? Did they provide more power? Are they worth the money?

Thanks Jim and Gwbarm. Your input backed up my worries about buying aftermarket clutches from amazon or ebay. I typically look at reviewers comments about a product if they're available before buying. It does seem that some of the aftermarket parts on Amazon have free returns, which can be a good thing if the part does not match up. I think I'll stick with OEM for the clutch and transmission if possible. Thanks!

I'm rebuilding a 2004 Suzuki LT80 and am wondering where everyone is buying parts for their carbs, clutch, and transmission. Has anyone had success with Amazon parts or should I stick to OEM parts that can be found on partzilla or suzukipartshouse.com. I found one old thread where people talked about only buying OEM for top end but other locations should work.

I just joined the site and have found a lot of great information for my LT80 rebuild I'm doing for my son.

Thank you @Mech. This is exactly what I was looking for!

Newbie hear, I've done a lot of looking on the site but have not found any specs on the minimum thickness for the clutch pads or minimum inner diameter of the clutch housing of a 2004 Suzuki lt80. Before I started the teardown, the belt was slipping alot at low speeds and I'm wondering if the 20 year old clutch is at the end of its life. I've ordered a new belt, checked the rollers for flat spots and any wear on the primary transmission, all looks good. I'll clean the rollers and re-grease them before reinstalling. Thanks for any help.

SBECK, did you end up finding an LED light for your setup? I'm looking at doing something similar and want to see if you went through with it.
