[redrider69]

well when i got on it today after not riding for a couple weeks but just driving back and forth thru the yard to the truck i got on it today and when i got in 2nd and gunned it trying to get the front end up it bogged down and slowed really quick im wondering what could i do to fix or what could it be ???????

[crap-banshee32]

maybe a fouled plug?

jsut a possibility

[400EXrider77]

was the same gas sitting in it for those couple of weeks? a fouled plug is a possibility also

[redrider69]

yes it is the same gas so do i need to get it out and put new gas in or what

did you leave your choke on?

[LilGuyOn400ex]

check the air filter... this has happened to me and my filter was dirty and it wasnt gettin enough air so it bogged out

[cals400ex]

make sure the bike is up to FULL temp or it may not run to its potential.

Did your mainjet fall out? Are your floats adjusted to the right height?

Check your mainjet, it could be clogged. While it's running try tapping on the side of your floatboal with the handle of a screwdriver. You could also try this, with the motor running and the airfilter off, rev up the motor to about 1/4 throttle or so and the cover the carb intake with your hand. Right when the motor is about to die from no air, take your hand off and rev it up. Sometimes that will get trash out of your main jet. Your main jet controls upper mid to full throttle and if its clogged that may be why it bogs when you "stomp" on it. Good Luck.
