ELKA Stage 4 Installed on 2016 Grizzly !

Here is a video of the new shocks I just installed on the Grizz.
I have only rode it around the yard , but it feels like I am driving on Memory foam, Its weird, but AWESOME !
Less bouncing around , and more sag when I sit on it. They custom build their shocks to the weight of the rider , and the style riding you do. I am lighter , and I can tell these shocks are built for me ! Here is a link if you want to check them out.

500 HO WOT issue

Long time listener first time caller here. I have searched but still havent found someone with an issue exaxtly like mine and I’m loosing my mind. I’m working with 2 500 ho’s, a 2011 and a 2012. Both have around the same hours on them, the problem bike 110 hours, my personal bike 130. The machine starts and idles perfect, but when you go wide open on the throttle it pops and sputters. I have not only been through the carb myself twice, but I swapped carbs with the 2012 and it still does it. Thought it might be a fuel pump issue, so I swapped fuel pumps and no change. I’m going nuts here!!

Bleeding brakes

I seem to have a problem ,when I was servicing my bike I noticed that I had no brakes ,so I decided to bleed the brakes and top them up,but I ran into an issue with the front right caliper I couldn’t bleed it I took the screw out and cleaned it ,but still to no avail it didn’t help the problem ,I’m just looking for some advice on what I should look at next.
