    Any idea??

    Anyone have any idea why my 200X cuts out when I'm hauling butt and hit some decent bumps? It doesn't do it on flat ground. It just kinda sputters a little then is just fine until I hit some more. Thanks.

    Most likely the floats in the carb...

    I had the same problem with the lt-160. My problem was a dirty carburetor and dirty gas tank.

    Make sure you clean the inside of your gas tank, run an in-line fuel filter, replace the fuel lines, and clean/rebuild the carburetor.

    No prob. Had the same problem on a few of my rides. Usually a little cleaning/rebuild does the trick.

    Their is a small plastic splash guard that goes over the main jet in the carb . See if yours is missing or broken .

    mine did that too... run fine, hit a few whoops or jump and just about die. i pulled it apart and found a bunch of sediment in the carb. just get a can of gum-out.. now it runs like a scalded dog.

    hey, if that doesn't do it, check for a bad ground. do not ground anything to the front end.
    one cylinder is not enough!!

    The little splash guard shortline is talking about is a pretty big deal for climbing and wheelies. Could be your problem, if you dont have one you should look into it either way.
