I have a 1985 Suzuki lt230ge with electric start. It has a keyed ignition. The key, once inserted will move to two positions. There is a button on the left handlebar to engage the starter... so what do the two key positions do. Anyone know???? I am looking forward to getting to enjoy this machine but I can't find a lot of info online about such a classic ATV. Thanks in advance for any advice!!

I have recently acquired a 1985 Suzuki lt230ge quadrunner. It has an automatic clutch. How do you ride it. do I select a gear and then give it gas and it will go? What about downshifting? I don't want to jump on it and go and risk busting something on this old rig. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!!!

I have a 86 LT quadrunner 230 GE I had a post about high idle i couldnt fix well it was the boot so now its fixed but im bogging out on full throtle I think it may be throtle cable as i had to make adjustments to it because it was getting high revs when turning handle bars but now may have to much slack though it seems like its going up and down good on carb . Do you guys think its a carb issue or a throtle cable ? Idles perfectly but I will say i did put a carb on i had in shop OEM for this quad but i honestly dont know how clean it is I do have a chineese carb thats brand new i dont know why i just didnt use it but thats neither here or there Thanks in advance its been a few weeks of hell with this quad and its so close to being a beast again

Hello, Does anyone have a service manual for a 1986 Suzuki lt230s quadrunner? I have replaced the top end and cannot get it to run which i am having a major problem with timing.

Well, I seem to have picked up the Quadrunner bug. I bought a second one, a much older and physically smaller 230. 2WD, semi-auto, pull button reverse. The fellow got it to run, but certainly the carb is blocked up as it only ran on full choke. Controls are much different, and I'll have to look into the clutch/transmission as I can't seem to get it in neutral, though the previous owner was able to while loading??? I may be missing something. Does anybody know if the early Quadrunners were still "5 gears up" with neutral at the bottom? I should be able to knock it into neutral without the motor running, correct? Expect lots of questions, as this one needs a ton of work, lol.
