Default Help for sportsman 90 front suspension

The front end of these quads is notorious for squatting after awhile. The springs weaken over time. The only remedy is to crank up the shock adjustments to a stiffer suspension or buy new shocks for the front. Also, these quads are made in China, if I am correct. They are just not the quality of comparable Japanese or American quads. I bought a Chinese quad for my second son when he was little. Biggest mistake. I had tons of trouble keeping the carb. adjusted. I finally sold it to someone who had a mechanic in their household.
