What brand/model/year is it? Any mods? Any damage? If it is in good shape and only a year or two old, you might get 70% of what you paid. 150's aren't really in high demand though, and if it looks abused at all the worth falls right off quick.

atvmike, if you added the airfilter without rejetting that's probably the problem, you need to change both the main and pilot jet. as far as valve you shouldn't have paid more than $1100 max for it, even ater 2 years of riding and sell it haft price $550, you're still better off than some one who purchased a name brand and took a hit of appox 30-40% off what they paid.

anytime you increase airflow will require rejetting, have you pull the spark plug and look at it after you installed the uni? i'm betting it's running lean,

you need to install a new plug, and do a coulple high speed runs , then let it cool a little ( never want to remove a spark plug while the engine is hot, the head is aluminum and spark plug is steel , aluminum expands more than steel you could end up removing the threads with the spark plug) so let it cool down first, thats for checking the main jet, , the buggy people with the same engines and same aircleaner changes are using a 120 main with a #40 pilot, stock comes with a 113main and a 38 pilot

If I sold my quad in about a year, how much would I be able to get out of it? Thanks for any
replies.

Its a 2005 brand from vegas called thormax. Right now it has an air filter and probably
a roller weight soon. It just needs a carb adjustment or an air filter cleaning to (hopefully)
get it idling again. Then it will be running perfect. Because in about a year I think ill outgrow
it.

I thought that was k&n only w/ the filters that you have to rejet?
