  No Modify button next to the quote button. There used to be a while ago, but I haven't seen one in a long time. That goes for my slow outdated work computer and my slow out dated laptop at home.

• The first reply to this thread had awesome questions all of which I have. I just purchased my first lt500r and its my first experience with a Suzuki 4 wheeler since I was 8 and had an lt80. It's an 87, I've owned blasters, banshees, 400exs, and a Kawasaki 400 so I'm not new to race/sport quads but it has Ben year since I've owned or worked on a two stroke. I have heard the lt500r is very different from pretty much every other two stroke race quad so a little insight would be helpful. Thanks!
