i dont know why it would be easier .maybe less easy because of the wider stance . if there was a differential on the rear end axel  it would be different

It should make it feel more stable. I would do all 4 wheels the same. Amazon has a few and this one is available n 1.5 or 2"

no way would i ever make the front end wider with spacers. bumpsteer  will snap your wrist . not just alittle , the pain oh the pain of it 

could it be the gas cap is not venting ?

Hi guys new to this had a few mx bikes in the past and always fancied a quad so bought myself a 2004 ltz 400 bored out to a 450 only bought it last week and 1st time on it yesterday 

so everything was running smooth was just getting used to driving it on the road was out for maybe an hour not thrashing it just taking my time then all of a sudden started sort of bogging lost all power and cut out I don’t have a clue what it is tried starting it but nothing the starters going and every couple of seconds get like all I can describe is like a compression stroke  the petcock was set on prime and I didn’t notice whilst riding I don’t no weather I may have flooded the engine 

I have took the spark plug out tested it it sparks great no problem 

I took the carb off nothing give it a quick looking over nothing seems to be wrong with that although when I put the choke on and try start fuel comes out of the over flow  

the air filter was soaking with petrol 

any help would be great please guys my 1st day on the quad has not been good 

are you saying the starter is not rolling the engine over ? 

yep

there should be one going to the petcock

no, not yet . there is one guy that said he wanted to go this year ,he said that last year . now I cant get ahold of him . I most likely will put the trip off till the early fall(labor day)

ran it on a dyno , hit 100+ ltz484

I want to go but cant do it by my self . any one or two, what to share a ride out and back to UT or ID.
most likely this June
some one from Michigan, Ohio ,Indiana works best for me . lets talk

you know its great i know it great . ............just what are the sand virgins afraid of. i honistly feal i should be turning people away because we only have just enough room for TWO and id be happy with one

i recall my brother saying to look out for the high gravity spots. weird how it can suck you right off your ride.

ya makes ya think twice about making them jumps when you cant see the other side of the hill.

the last guy i did see get hurt was with several others ,and i think he was the last and tiring to keep up . some how he lost it on what was really flat sand . he went out to the hospital on a board.

at WV HM i saw two different guys lose it. happenedend that they we the last in the line of a number of riders, tiring to keep up with the pack and because of the dust ,they did not know what they had to avoid. ill tell you ,its along way down on some of them trails.

flying through the air is easy . its that sudden stop that hurts

LOL Broke my wrist last year at the dunes !!

yep , i have seen a number of guys get hurt at SL .thankfully i have not seen any on get them selves dead,but it does happen. last one i did hear of one rider lost it going over a hill and he got run over by the guy he was riding with.

you could get killed doing that . safer to go to the dunes

how nice for you. i have driven past kill pecker many times but have never stopped to see any of it.

any way ,we are still looking for one more person to make this whole trip possible. if it goes anything like it has in the past , the cost per person for gas should be near $400 each . thats rather cheap to go that far and back . food and your quad gas is your responsibility

any one interested in going out west to ride the big sand dunes in idaho ? there are plans to leave the week of labor day from michigan . we would be spliting the gas cost 3 ways ,4 ways would be better but it gets a bit tight with 4 in the cab.

[email protected]

you going to be there ?

its a 10 day trip . i expect it to take 30 hours to get there 30 hours to get home .

hey me and 2 others are making a trip to idaho to ride the big sand. we do have room for 1 more person . leaving michigan on the 25th of May ,any one want to go ?

starter dive gears only turn one way , your problem is deeper

do new rings count? i did a compression test it was at 60 psi ya id say its time for new rings. no not planing any more hp mods . i did how ever put on a big air filter

i swear Leota is designed to hurt ya ,i dont go there much any more and it is soooooooooo dusty.

stock?? who rides stock? the only kawi i have ever seen that was even close to fast was feed to much noss

i then put on a dynatek adiustable cdi and picked up one more hp
