throttle sticky?

[ks04limited]

just picked up an 04 limited edition banshee to upgrade from my old blaster. im really impressed except that it bogs a little in first, and the throttle is really hard to push. is there a spring i can replace to fix the throttle issue? or should i just switch to a twist throttle and hope i dont loop out when i hit the jumps? also, any ideas why it might be bogging? i dont know jack about banshees. and only know enough about 2 strokes to keep the blaster running decent. (for those who dont know, blasters can be really picky sometimes. have to change the jetting for every temp change more than = or - 10 degrees. stock ones might run better, but mine had some work and years on it.) anyway. tough throttle? bogging? thanks.

Clean and lube throttle and cable. Clean carbs.

get an extended throtle lever, or in time you'll get used to it. don't go with a twist throttle the suck on a quad! check plugs ,clean carbs, clean air filter, check jetting.
