Sounds like a clutch slipping whether it has a wet plate clutch or a cvt system.

If it shifts into each gear ok,but won't move,then sounds like either a clutch system or final drive problem whether it's chain driven or shaft driven.

2 things to check into. Not sure if yours has a cable operated clutch on the bar but make sure that is not adjusted to tight, should be some slight play in the cable. If its auto their may be another place to tighten up the clutch if its slipping. Also any idea what kind of oil may be in it? May not be clutch safe oil. Had a old kingquad that someone had just tossed in what ever they had. Slipped like crazy did a few oil changes on it and it was much better. Still slipped slightly but was rideable

There is no hand clutch only a foot gear lever I think the persons who had it before did make some adjustments the first week I had it it was working great kicking *** now that I think about a few times it was hard kicking it down to neutral and Rev from 1st

I will try the oil witch one is the best though? I know the gas is going thru it's just when I kick it up to 1st to take off the Rev noise it's just to loud than before and it's moving slow worse for second and third after it feels the motor warms up a bit
