What do I need to adjust to get rid of my bog? I'm guessing it is a carburetor issue. I get a pretty decent bog off the line and any other time at fairly low speeds when I snap the throttle wide open. Jetting is completely stock. Also sometimes my idle is high, I touch the throttle a little bit and it will come back down, it seems like its always different. Cables have plenty of free-play.
 
this is a long shot but did you happen to replace bushings in the secondary lately? check them to make sure the bushing isnt popping out and prying against the jackshaft bearing. took me awhile to figure this one out.

Its been an issue ever since I got the sled. I cleaned the carbs at the start of the season. I haven't messed with the secondary either, 3400 miles. Definitely not a TORS issue, seems like that is everyones "go to" answer lately, damn LOL. I will try messing with the fuel screws again. From what I've read it is the idle circuit (fuel screws/pilot jets) that is most likely causing my problems...?
We'll figure it out sooner or later, hopefully its not just the nature of the beast.
 
before you go messing up your jetting, check your weights and rollers for wear, if they have flat spots, or other wear, it will cause the sled to bog until the rollers get past the worn part of the weight.
