my 400 dies every time i do a long wheelie, it runs fine , on the flat i can hold it wide open and go thru the gears, but when i do a wheelie and put it back down it bogs and dies. it takes like 5 min. to start it again.

i cleaned the whole carburator,and air filter.


can anyone help me out.

sounds like to me trash in your gas tank bro...take your gas tank off drain all the gas out of it....take your petcock off and clean that screen off good and put it back on and see how it does thats the only thing i can think

and check that vent hose on the bottom of your carb make sure that aint clogged up because if it is....it will load up with gas and flood the motor
