i need some help my 500 scramy is not running right. it bogs really bad past 1/5 throttle even on flat ground. it bogs so much it will hit maybe 10 mph. but if u put it in nuetral it revs up just find and sounds alright. the only mods we have done is a exhaust and removed air lid what is the problem

Mine used to do the same thing when I got water in the belt. It usually fixed itself within 20 mins max.

Yup, you need the lid on for starters. It'll run like dodo under load.

Is your air filter clean?

Is it jetted correctly?
