Default New Z400 stalling

Picked up the new quad yesterday (first quad) and it seemed to want to stall all the time.. The stealer (dealer) fired it up and let it idle and is seemed ok... Then when I got home after firing it up if you went to rev the engine it would just stall... Also, after getting it in gear and riding it if I didnt kee pthe revs up it would die... What should I check...

Total noob, I am....

Other than it not running I love it.. :-)

was the dealer in a different area from your home, cuz it could be the elevation and you may need to change your jetting. oh yeah and dont forget to check the choke make sure its not on.

Yes, I would check to make sure the choke is on. You do know how to use a clutch also, dont you?

Ok, just checking because another kid asked this question on here about why his 450 was stalling when he stopped. He wasnt pulling in the clutch.
