so my 02 will not run right it takes a good 30min to get warm and stop stalling then another 20 for it to stop bogging A TON. i think its jetted to a cobra full system but i dont know cause the guy i got it from was dumb as hell. i think its the jetting but once its all the way warm it runs 95%. im gona rejet it this weekend but i was wondering if it could be anything other than the jetting. also does anyone know how much a battery is mine wont hold a charge

i dont think its ya battery because you can ride with a dead battery, is there old gas in the quad, or is it fresh, you can have a clogged fuel filter also.

he dosent think the battery is making it run bad the prob hes having with the batt is it dosent keep a charge

ooh, well you should take the battery off the bike, and try trickle charging it. once it is fully charged check the volts, come back in a couple hours, and if the battery has less voltage than when starting out with, then it usually is a dead cell. most atv batteries will die easily, the best thing to do is keep a battery maintainer on it every so often to keep it charged. once a battery is drained down to the limit, and charged back up again, then it looses approx 5-10% of its life.
