baha 400 4x4 throttle killing engine?
Bought a baha 400 4x4 last fall from canadian tire. Has about 225 km's on it.
Took It out for the first time tonight. While I was ripping down a trail the engine suddenly lost all power. I took my thumb off the throttle and the quad idoled just fine. As soon as I hit the throttle the engine dies?
Fianlly I messed with the choke a little bit and was able to get moving with the choke fully out. Barely moved but was able to limp back to the garage.
Anyone ever had this problem that can help me?

check the compression with a gauge and not your thumb.
verify you're getting an adequate fuel supply.
may need to clean the carb/jets/float assembly.
make sure the fuel tank is vented. either by a vented cap or a hose that's on the fuel cap. either way, we want to rule out the tank experienced a vacuum lock.
replace the fuel filter
make sure the petcock valve is not partially plugged up.
