Put it in low gear, be on pavement or cement stand up get going 3-5 mph and stab the gas while sitting down and pull back on the handle bars. BE READY THE FRONT END WILL COME UP if your not careful you will be wearing it on your face..... belive me i know from experience.

Your over heating light is blinking? If it's that new, have you checked to make sure the fluid levels are correct? Also, have you already tried it in mud and got mud caked over the radiator grill? Is your fan coming on?

Kodi

With the Quad being that new overheating is a very bad thing...there are several different theories on breaking in a quad...they all revolve around one major principle...dont overheat your quad before it has had a chance to break in and properly seat. If you are riding it that hard i would probably error on the side of caution and wait until i got a few more miles/time on it or shut it down periodically after good romps....if you are not riding it aggressive ... then yes, get the fluids/radiator checked or have the dealer give it a quick run through

Wheeling...have it on a terrain that you dont lose alot of traction because off spin...believe it or not grass works alright and like mentioned before pavement. Put in low and give it a little throttle and let off...as it winds down stab it again and lean back...first time she will scare you as she jumps right up...after that you get your timing down and can pull it up at will practically.

Man i feel sorry for you guys your bikes are hard to wheeli. I put my bike in high gear lean forward ( while still sitting ) punch it move back to ragular ridding positin, and she come back so fast ill be flipped over beffor i hit 7 mph. For me the best place to do wheelies is on Grass and hard wet dirt, cause i dont ruen my tires at all and its safer than asphalt. Okay this is going to make your jaw drop. I can keep my bike on a wheelie till 42 mph. Not cause i run out out of throttle, its more like i run out of bal$$. Serously i dont like looking at ONLY my front racks for 10 seconds going 40 mph .
Best off all I stll have to jet my quad cuase im too lean then i have some real power.
I can still get my front wheels up if im going 15mph and if i use alot of body english. I CANT WAIT TILL I GET MY 700

Why do yu guys need to put it in low? I never ever have to. High range for me all the time. I can wheelie mine fort as long as i want to. Even when it was stock. Later
