Thanks everybody. Actually had some trouble on my first ride. Started bogging and smoking. Oil looked foamy and airbox had alot of oil in it. Pushed it up on the trailer and took it back to the dealer. After a long night of research, and finding quite a few similar happenings, I think somehow it got overfilled with oil, and saturated the air filter/intake. Dealer changed the oil and cleaned the filter/intake tract - (while I watched, I do not trust my local dealer) - we ran it around the lot some, and then I ran it 30-40 mins more once home (pouring rain/freezing cold) and it has not repeated. The only thing that's still got me confused is that the original oil was very green. I'm pretty sure it's not coolant as I've not lost any, and it didn't have the smell. Dealer suggests that Kawi could be using a different oil. Oil looks fine since the change. I plan on calling Kawi to ask about this and to make them aware of what happened. Anybody else heard of this sort of thing? Thanks again.

I don't plan any sort of performance mods, this thing has way more power than what I need! I will upgrade the tires when they're shot for sure. They might as well be slicks! Kawi gipped us on the tires no doubt. Other than that just a winch (got the $69.00 deal) and upgrading the skid plates. Oh and some sort of luggage.

      I'm trying to help a buddy out with his bike (he's not really on the internet or familiar with these forums) and I'll admit that I am not super familiar with the transmission and clutches in these bikes. I owned a Brute a few years ago, but never had an issue like this that I had to troubleshoot.
      So basically my buddy bought a group lot of 650's to build one good bike out of. He got it all put together and has it running but when he pushes on the throttle the clutch doesn't engage till the RPM's are quite high and even when its moving it doesn't really speed up, almost seems like its in "limp mode". He's tried 2 different transmissions so I don't think that's the problem. 
      Is there any adjustment on the clutch engagement? Anything else I can tell him to look at? Let me know if you need anymore information if you think you can help.

      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!

      I like to ride in wooded and grassy areas. It takes my mind off the everyday routines and helps me deal with my father's cancer. Also gives me a reason to get involved with forums like this one.

      First post here need some help/advice. I bought a 2001 king quad 300, vin number JSAAK43A212111871. I have been trying to do some basic maintenance as it runs but doesn't idle all that well . I want to take out and clean/repair the  carb but when looking for parts it ask for model X Y K1 K2. How do I know which model I have? I have tried some vin decoders but they haven't told me. If anyone could recommend a carb rebuild kit for my quad Id appreciate it. Also any tips on tracking down an owners manual?
