Clutch may be out of adj,or just bad, maybe sticking was it sitting long? I have seen clutch plates sick together after along time sitting.

Dang.. I was talking to him about that after seeing it on Craigslist. He told me I was next in line if it didn't sell to you. I was all over this little gem. Congrats and yes get some pics up stat. :-)
It sounds to me like a clutch issue..

Sick!! Nice grab.. I'm always looking for KX 3 and 4 wheeled coversions. It's a beauty. Treat it well, and if you ever decide to get rid of it, send me a pm.

I'm not a big quad fan, but I have to admit, that is pretty trick.

From what is described I dont think your problem has anything to do with the clutch.. what i see wrong is a 80cc bike in cold weather with no airfilter and its in a quad frame with an adult sitting on top... If you dont have an airfilter or bigger jets to correct the lean condition then try choking off the airbox inlet with duct tape.

3 if it was show room shape i could see or a jimmy white tecate but no 1's looking for this quad so why not use it

As far as I'm concerned you should have let someone that wanted it buy it, and you could have bought something else to beat up. Based on numbers of what you have that would be like buying a Tiger or Cagiva to "drive drunk" and "beat up". Put it on Ebay so someone can keep it around. I'd love to have it for my kids when they get older.
The airbox is stock 85 KX80, buy an air filter for it, moron

What a Shame! I have several quads/trikes I would swap to you that you could get drunk and bang around on.

Geez it's just a cobbled up kx80 quad. Much more common than you think.
You guys are acting like it's the holy Grail of atv's. And besides it's his to do what he wishes. Drunk or sober what atv doesn't get a beating?

Why not "drunk ride" your GSXR, then someone can get a good deal on this little quad at your estate sale...

Well I've seen two just in my lil town and several others online. Anyone with an astro kit and some tecate parts could build one. It's nothing like a tiger or cagiva.
