Known Issues
|
|
Carburetor Performance:
|
Some riders report lean fueling in stock configuration, which can be addressed with jetting or aftermarket modifications.
|
|
Suspension Softness:
|
The stock suspension can be perceived as soft for aggressive off-road riding, often leading owners to upgrade springs or damping components.
|
|
Clutch Feel:
|
Some users find the clutch lever pull heavy; aftermarket levers or cable adjustments can improve this.
