Went riding to the dunes a month back. Parked my quad in the garage and it just sat there. Took it out today for a spin. I started it up and started to ride, i fully let go of the clutch( the quad is still moving at least 10 mph) and it just bogged down. Then it would take at least 20 kicks to start it, and same thing happened.... Anyone know what the problem might be??

might be the gas. if it sits there, the gas can break down and gum up the carb. my wheeler does the same thing too when it sits for a long time.

your carb has trash in it somewhere, pull it apart and give it a good cleaning and it should be good as new...but if your gas has already went bad after one month i would find a new place to get fuel, imo

I say carb problems i might even say its the float valve isnt sealing causing it to flood the engine and not starting until it emptys.

Just a thought

i have a 09 electric start and there is a wire switch in the throttle. not sure if urs has that but i no if my swith is not there it will run but as soon as u let teh clutch out it died. i put the switch back in and worked just fine. hope that helps

You can bypass that by splicing the wires together.
