A Friend of mine just made this post and it makes CLEAR and PERFECT Sense!!!!! Ive always written a paragraph on it but this pretty much Sums it up in a nut shell.....Hope this helps

**********************************************************

Tuning tips:

1. Motor sputters when running rich.

2. Motor hesitates, bogs, or backfires when running lean.

If rich at idle to 1/4 throttle, go 1 size smaller on pilot jet. If lean at idle to 1/4 throttle, go 1 size larger on pilot. Use adjuster screw to fine tune. If rich at 1/4 to 3/4 throttle, move clip position up 1 groove on needle. If lean at 1/4 to 3/4 throttle, move clip position down 1 groove on needle. If rich at 3/4 to full throttle, go 1 size smaller on main jet. If lean at 3/4 to full throttle, go 1 size larger on main jet.

While tuning it is best to change one item at a time to focus in on variables and fine tune.

      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!

      Hi all - I recently had a shop fix this quad and it hasn't been right since. The jug was resealed as it was leaking, the rings were replaced, and the valve stem seals replaced. Shop said the cylinder walls were great so nothing was done there. The motor still smokes, heavily on startup and all but quits once warmed up. Enough that I can live with it if I can fix what I came to ask about. I mentioned this work because since I've gotten it back it seems like it has power but tops out at a much slower speed than before. It's old so I don't have a speedo but I pulled out my phone at it tops out at 25 mph. I know before the work, I was getting up to 45+ mph... It's so bad, my 10 year old daughter is pulling away and straight leaving me in the dust with her governed Polaris 90.
      Given the work done, what are some thing I could be the cause of such a drastic difference? I immediately thought timing but the marks appear to match up with a youtube video I found... no idea if it's correct though. It sat in another shop for 2 months and they gave me an $800 quote just for the starter... it pull starts fine. 
      FYI: I would take it back to the original shop to figure out but I had some issues that make them a no-go for me.
