Does anyone know where you can get a clutch cable for a Giovanni 250cc. I tried the place where I bought the bike but they say they don't have them. I have been looking for over 2 months now.

Hi,

Two weeks ago, I got my new Giovannie 250cc. I rode it for 3 hours, and everything was fine. I covered 75% of it with a tarp, and then didn't ride it for 2 weeks because I'm storring it at a small campsite I own up north. When I went to start it, I needed to hook it up to my pick up truck cause the battery losts it's juice. That didn't seem to be a problem because I had to do that 2 weeks ago too. Once it started ( two weeks ago ) I took the jumpers off my truck and the alternater was strong enough to charge the batterie. Anyways, when I got the ATV going, the engine sounded like crap. It was loud, and smacked out blue smoke, and I coulnd' t keep it going. It wouldn't stay started. I gave up trying to keep the thing going because I was worried I was wrecking something. I thought I'd ask you guys first if this is what happened to you? Two weeks ago, it started up, purred like a kitten, and this week, it was sooo loud and obnoxious, I had to turn it off because I was worried I was wrecking the engine. Any comments would be great.

I purchased my 250 geo quad in Aug of /o8. The engine and frame bolts were all tight but the body bolts and rack all needed tightening. I had a problem starting when cold as the choke was mis-ajusted and would not close fully. Once ajusted the quad started fine. For the stiff throttle,I unhooked the top of the throttle cable and shot a lot of WD40 inside, this helped alot. After 4 months of riding the rear suspension is finally softer, but the front shocks & springs are still stiff. I run with about 5 lbs of air in the tires which helps.

To tighten the chain, use a 15mm and 19mm open end wrenches.

Loosen the 3 rearend bolts, One each side (beside the shock mounts) and one on the center sway arm, just infront of the rearend.

Use the 19mm on the 2 ajusting nuts that are facing rearward, this will slide the whole rearend and axles back. ( turn each bolt the same amount clockwise. eg 1/2 turn each.) until the chain has about 1/2 to 3/4 of a inch movement up and down.
Retighten the 3 rearend bolts 15mm and 19mm.

Make sure you have spark first.
If after trying to start, pull the plug, is it wet with gas or dry. Gives you a starting point on were to look.

There is a link above on BigDaddyTX post on "How to adjust a Chinese Quad Carb". This helped me out.
If that doesn't work try contacting this outstanding and helpful member ( 2manytoys ).
He may be able to help.
