i have A 1993 suzuki 250 Quad runner, the other day while pining cattle a cow jumped over the front of it it bent my main steering sector and my right handlebar, but it still runs and drives better than my 2002 honda should i fix it or just leave it the same, how much will it cost, (or can i just streighten it with a torch, if i do i will have to take it off because it is about 3 inches from my gas tank) Also it has began to loose power wat can i do to help it.
I have a 2005 A/C 650V2 that while riding I lost all power. All fuses, cdi, battery are good. I am unable to readily check the ignition switch is it is a sealed unit but does feel good when turning. The unit is low miles and has been taken care of. I'm really ticked that I am having such a problem. Any ideas on what I should try or look at?

I cannot find the location of the spark plug on a 1999 Suzuki 500 Quadrunner. Is it under a cover / in an odd location?

I have a 1991 Polaris Trail Boss 250 that has developed a backfiring problem. When accelerating fairly hard, if you drop the throttle quickly, it will act like the motor has died for a second and then backfire violently. Even if you do not drop the throttle quickly, it will mildly backfire when decelerating.We tried to lean it out, which helped a little, but we can't get it to stop. Any suggestions?

I have a 04 honda recon that I need carburator diagram for to be sure if I hooked the vaccum lines up properly. Sometimes the starter wont spin the engine over like the engine is vapor locked. I think this is carb problem. Thanks

I have a 2005 honda recon es 250, the problem is that i have to hold the throttle open just a little to keep it running when i let off all the way it acts as though it is not getting any gas. It will not even attempt to start or run unless the throttle is open about a quarter of an inch.
