does it start back up easy?

good fuel and clean carb?

does it run fine besides this?

any info that might help you narrow it down

starts back up easily, runs fine, fuel is fresh.

is it only related to throttle position, or will it die at any position, might be just a gummed up float needle

like i said. i could sit on the quad, just go to rev it and it cuts and makes a weird kind of poop like i stalled it. it even does it when the quads in gear when im slowing down

sounds carb related...you might want to give your carb a good going over, check all the rubber seals make sure the float isn't hanging up, spray all passages and jets with carb cleaner, and blow out with an air hose

what size pilot jet do you have, and what do you have the A/F screw set to?

Ive found small bits of weed seeds clogging the main jet on MANY a 450R. Drop the bowl carefully to see if anything is floatinga round in there.
