    Curious to see if you guys change your jets on your atv for winter?
    If so are you noticing a big difference?
    I used to re-jet my sled on those warm days, but have never tried my atv.

    I did on my old sportsman 400….worked wonders. No lack of power on the bottom end and never fouled plugs. Granted, that was a two stroke motor, 4-stroke you shouldnt have to.

    Technically it would make a difference, in particular if it was not efi. That said, it isn’t typically worth the effort of changing em twice or more a year on utility quads. Never known anyone to do it. A racing quad run on the ice, those may be getting adjusted weekly, but again the jets are far more accessible as well. Just ride it and enjoy not having the extra fuss of thinking about it.

    Thanks for the replies.
    Ya that confirms what I was thinking too.
    It’s a four strke 500.
    You got to crank it over a little more than I would like on those cold mornings out on the lake.
