I went out riding my warrior today on my circle track and when i turned right the quad started cutting out, but never totally stalled. It felt just like i was running out of gas. This only happened when i turned right, not left. It seemed weird to me. I checked the plug.....ok, air filter.....clean enough, and the gas tank was half full. Something may be up with the carb but i'm not sure. I put a new clutch perch and emergency brake block-off on today too. I took the wires out of the old perch, cut the connecters off and shorted the wires out on the one closest to the bars (twisted them together and electrical taped them) and left the wires on the one farthest away from the handlebars the way they were (not touching) and taped them. So, could my problem be electrical? Can someone tell me what this might be? I don't know where to look next.

 

I would say the electrical is the reason for your problem. What I would do, and I did, is trace the wires all the way through the harness and remove them. This resolves any possibility of those wires causing any problems in the future. My guess is when you are turning right, it is tugging on your wires and slightly pulling apart your wires.

 

Sounds like a problem with the parking brake rev limiter. Take a close look at those wires and you will more than likely find your problem. On my 88 the wires are pluged into each other down by the steering stem, thus eliminating the rev limiter all together.
