iight so i was riding today and i rode around for only bout an hour in the woods by my house and i turn off my quad for a minute to talk to my friend. i turn it back on and all the sudden my quad starts moving all by itself at like 10mph. idk how or wat i did, and i was wondering if u guys kno how to fix it. thnx in advance.

 

o yea and one more thing.... wen i was riding it it made a big pop sound coming from my pipe. last time i heard that sound from my pipe it was because a wire was touching the pipe and wen it got hot the wire got hot and it blew afuse and made a big popping noise. anyways... it made the same sound today as the time with the wire. i hope that helps sumhow.

 

any answers please?

 

come on guys! nobody knows wats wrong?! i wanna go riding tomorrow and i dont want the gas to get jammed and have me fly into a tree or sumthing, lol.

 

My only guess would be the idle speed is too high. You must have left it in gear, and got off?
The centrifical clutch starts to engage at about 1600 rpm, so the idle must be higher than that.

 

man you stumped me on that one

It could be a million things wrong, just isn't enough info there to do much with. Sounds like you need to do some digging before that thing leaves you stranded or worse

 

ill get my dad to check it out kuz he used to be a mechanic. thnx for the help guys and wish me luck!

 

Pretty simple. Check your choke.....make sure it wasnt on part way.......the fast idle with the choke part way on will cause your quad to move when you start it in gear.

 

dude... i was thinkin bout that too today during school and was gunna ask u guys if its possible that my choke is still on. thnx for the reply. ill check it out right now to c if mabe that was the problem kuz i did use the choke before i went riding to warm it up and mabe by accident i didnt turn it off all the way.

 

omg, i cant beleive this. wat a stupid mistake! i just went itno my garage to check it out and my choke was not fully off. wow, wat a stupid thing to do, haha. well.... thnx for the help guys, but i have one more question..... i rode it with the choke on for bout 10 minutes kuz i had to get home and i didnt notice that it moved by itself untill i got onto my driveway. did i damagae anything by doing that?
