My friend SRX seem to have a big problem. We have checked and cleaned all the carburator, changed intake gasket, the engine is freshly rebuilded, new plugs.... The problem is : at idle, everytings is good, but the acceleration is poor and over 5-6k rpm, there some big back fire (I can see the fire out of the 3 carburators) and big backfire out of the exhauts... Forget to say, new gasoline was used !
Any Ideas ?

I know this is going to sound goofy, but check the secondary clutch. My kids have a Polaris that we were just having the same problem with. We Cleaned the carbs, checked compression, electrical, and everything we could think of. Come to find out it was the secondary clutch!

Is your throttle cable to tight?When you say you cleaned the carbs what did you do explain.It could be the tps

Does the moter sound like a honda on the rev limiter when on the gas?

The engine sound like he want to get out of the cab lol, no rev limited, just BIG backfire with fire out of the carbs !
I am guessing you are flooding it due to sticking or inproperly adjusted floats or sticking starter jets. Too much fuel getting into the engine.

WHENEVER YOU HAVE A BACKFIRE OR A EXPLOSION SORTA -A SPEAK, THATS A PROBLEM WITH SPARK, A COIL, A CDI, A STATOR, SOMETHING IN YOUR INGINTION. CARBS ARE WORKING FINE, THATS FUEL GETTING OVER BURNED OR A INTIMIT,IN SPARK CAUSEING A KICK BACK. 3:16 (yammie tony)

X2,
when my sled wasnt firing on the middle cylinder, I'd always get a buildup of raw fuel and a backfire... Could definately be electrical dont rule that out... You might want to check the condition of your reeds to after having the backfires
