i was wondering whats worked out for those who have a 98 Sport with hotseats pipe and clutch kits? what size pilot jet, main jet, and clip positioning. im having low end bogging from a dead stop and mid to top is awesome! it might of been a dirty air filter but this has been going on since the mods were installed. im running a 250 main and both spacers on the pipe.

i know ive posted already and have gotten great responses and appreciate it. i have not had a chance to go test it out but when i do i want to be well prepaired for whatever jet/needle position/ect i might need and do all the work there so i can get this over with. and enjoy the extra power(and $$$ invested) thanks to all who take the time to learn some of us that are getting into the rush of ATVing!!!

If you ride at a 1/4 to 1/2 steady throttle does it run rough? If so move your needle clip up 1/2 a clip (if your clip is on position 4 move it to 3 and add a half postion washer, if your on 3 move to 2 and add washer)you can get the washer at almost any cycle shop. This should solve your problem. Also check your plug you always want your bike to run as rich as possible without losing power or fouling plugs. Your plug should be a nice rich brown color.

Good luck

i removed the air box lid and was running just w/ a K&N filter. moved the clip up 1 position which lowered the needle(just to avoid confusion) and put in the stock 35 pilot jet. that cleared up the low end bogging and gave me back my low end punch and even cleaned up the middle and it really cranks now!!
im going to try a 260 main jet(currently 250) and see if that makes a differnece. it might be a little too lean according to the plug reading but it was a new plug so ill ride it a while this time to see what it shows.



hey what is the difference from a Sport and a Scrambler?
thanks
