2002 lt80
Things look pretty good on the new machine.
I was thinking of the following. Please tell me if I'm on the right track.
This is for my 9 year old daughter (upgrade from Kazuma Falcon 90). No racing; just trail riding (though she's fairly aggresssive). We're in Denver at 5200 ft. We usually ride at 8000-10000ft.
Injector still works so I was going to leave it? ( I use amsoil synthetic)
Boysen Reeds?
LT80's clutch mod? Would this make it too jerky for trail-riding? Or rap out the engine at trail riding speeds? Or is this a "must-do"?
Jet recommendations for our altitude?
Open style air cleaner to get more air (altitude)? I'd have to research what I could do here.
Reverse the wheels for a little wider track (or spacers?) Would this increase trail feedback quite a bit?
That's it for now. I'm headed to the shop to tighten-up the front brakes.
Thanks guys!

Amsoil makes a injector oil? (just making sure).
Reeds are a good idea.
The rear clutch mod helps eliminate the start out bog. Removal of a roller or 2 will make it less snappy. I consider the stock LT80 jerky at start. The mods help that.
No it's not a have to but as you may have read, everyone seems to like the mods.
The LT80 is not altitude sensitive like other machines. Stock jetting or maybe go down to a 90 main. Watch the plug color.
I'd leave the air filter alone. I can get a LT80 to rev to 13k+ with the stock filter set-up.
Your getting plenty of air.
Wider is allways better.
