The floats in your carburators are not ajusted properly which is causing your rappy to cut when you do a wheely. ( not enough fuel in the carb bowls ).

You could check to make sure that there set up correctly
Mine did the same thing when I did a wheely or when i climbed a big hill
Now that i ajusted them it no longer cuts out .

I wish there were an easy way to do that.... It sure is a pain taking all that stuff off ... but it's worth it for a good wheely....... It makes sense though that it would be the float.. It didn't do it before I put my jet kit in so I thought it may be a needle or jet issue..

If this problem only started after you rejetted, the problem is more likely to be the needle position if you adjusted it more than 1 noch up then it my be so rich at 1/8-3/4 throttle that it is just to much fuel when the quad is on an incline or during a wheele.

I put in a dynajet set up that came with new needles /// i set those up on the 4th clip just like the mikuni needles... The kit called for a 144 in the primary and a 148 in the secondary but when I tested it ,my spark plug was real white., so I bumped it up to a 148 primary and a 150 secondary and the plug looks better, it screams but the wheely thing is goin on now...

i had the same problem with mine. i had the dynojet kit in it and had all types of problems with cutting out and getting it to run just right. i replaced the dynojets back to stock and have never had a problem since with wheelies. i personally think it runs better overall too.

Mine is doing the same thing, when jumping or riding wheelies. I have mine jetted. So just move the needles down 1 notch.

yup

but I thought it was tooo much fuel

Do you smell gas when you get near your bike???? Is their fuel draining from your overflow tubes????
