Default Honda bogging down

I have a 2007 Honda 500 Foreman. I just finshed snorkeling it and running hoses from all the necessary points. It drives fine when im just crusing along but when i give it full throttle in any gear it starts bogging down like its running out of gas or something. It is doing this in every gear 1-5.

Please Help

uhhh....all i really know to tell you is un-snorkle it. 07 is too new to have engine problems. try it the factory way, then add one snorkle at a time till you find the one making it bog down then make it larger. if this doesent work, just leave it un snorkled is all i know to say.

I would guess the snorkle isn't flowing enough air, and it gets rich and loads up at higher throttle? Does taking the air box lid off cure it?

Anyway, welcome to the forum.

try Jeffin's suggestion first...typically the problem with snorkels is restricted airflow

a nother guy on her had the same issue and the best thing to do is your main jet is to big so id try going down a couple of sizes on it so then it get lass gas and it will lean it down so it will get the right air and fuel mix again
