About Morgantown, I have been delivering food here for 3 years to pay for school so I know what you mean. It is actually flat compared to where my parents live and I love snow so I usually deliver when it snows and make huge tips. Just have to avoid steep streets with intersections at the bottom or ...

It was late at night when I filled it up and the only gas I could get was 92 and the manual says to use 93 or higher so I put about 2oz of booster in 4gallons of gas, it may not have even raised the octane but I figured why not.

Nope, the quad was totally stripped a week ago and it ran after that, hopefully something will show up.

The gas is fresh with a little octane boost. I agree i shouldnt have messed with the idle so soon but it started right up 3 days later and i was on the throttle when it bogged and died so that has nothing to do with the idle, but any input helps narrow things down.

Also I have realized the more that I travel the more I love WV, the weather, the mountains and friendly people (many who are extremely well educated). My parents live near Canaan Valley where there are 2 ski resorts and I meet a lot of tourists and they all praise the place most of the houses at the...

I am in Morgantown i go to wvu, they kind of got me on this trip but they have taken pretty good care of me. My quad is at my parents house 1.5 hrs away plus the trip to you (my roommate in the dorm was from Pt Pleasant and it was a fairly long trip) but it would be worth it to get it running. I am ...

About Fed Up

I am a broke engineering student and work nights and weekends to pay for school and I have scrapped together money and bought pa...

I made a quick sketch in paint to help. If I had time I could have used CAD and made it look professional but hopefully the 5year old with a crayon version is good enough to show you what you are curious about. The older head pipe went 2 into 1 sooner and ends about 4inches before the silencer. The ...

I just looked at it frame by frame in a video processing program and it is definately fake, but someone did a good job, if you watch it a normal speed it looks real and that was probably the goal. I saved a frame where you can see the back tire below the bumper but it doesnt show up well.
