Flat tire, that's it!
Change the oil, change the plug, clean the filter and the thing will run forever. Just picked up a 450R rear shock off ebay for it. Should really improve handling.

Ozarkmaster, I see by your signature where you say a "Raptor 350 maybe." I hope by your question that you are thinking of a 400EX instead. The 350 Raptor is just a slightly updated Warrior. Same engine, a little different gearing, a few pounds lighter and copycat plastic. The 400EX will b low it away in handling, speed, in every aspect. The 400EX is bullet proof!

on my old 400ex i blew out the rear shock, wrecked the bearing carrier which wrecked the axle while towing back to camp, and for some reason over whoops it would lose its fuel supply and i never found out why. now on the other hand, and old seal in the shock was the culprit, easily fixed. the axle came loose from jumping (always check your axle if you jump a 400EX. the nut does not lock in place). and the fuel problem, probably a rubber seal that flexed when the bike was bouncing through the whoops and eliminated teh vaccum effect needed for proper fuel flow. those bikes are bullet proof, as long as the previous owner took care of it properly.
