What kind of oil do i use for a qlink xf200
-Factory booklet says standard mineral 15w50. remember this Engine is a detuned(smaller Carbie+Cam) Suzuki DR200 Clone in disguise. So, add : 1300ml dry Brand new from the crate:850ml for an oil change, add 950ml for an Oil change+Filter.
-Mine has been using a Syntetic 5W40, for 8years/40k; and starts and runs like new.
Never Neglect the oil level -Specially in Hot weather-, allways check before start -see window in picture-.
-Oil starving is the Only Way to kill this Engine.
Can't figure out how to. Remove the seat on my
The plastic side panels have bolts just below the QLINK printed on the side(s) of the seat; take the 2 bolts out and the seat will slide to the rear and off.
Replace the seat by sliding the 2 "L" shaped holders on the bottom, front of the seat into their sockets and replace the 2 bolts

SOUNDS LIKE INTURNAL TRANS PROBLEMS, HAS IT BEEN JUMPING OUT OF GEAR BEFORE IT FAILED COMPLETELY.
On my way to work my qlink just stopped running?
Very nice bike.
Forgive me for saying, but has it definitely got gas in the tank? Run it on reserve tank if not. Check that the HT lead has not come off the spark plug. Ensure the lights come on with you turn the ignition on.
Shout back if this doesn't help, vote for me if it does :) Thanks.
My battery died. I push started the bike, but the
The bike needs the battery to operate those componants and to have a good ignition. Charging or replacing your battery will correct all systems. Leaving the rhe charging stsrem to be ck'd Good Luck, Ned-
Oil filter
To change your oil filter remove oil drain plug drain oil into an oil pan clean and replace oil drain plug, then remove oil filter, pour a drop of clean oil onto a new oil filter, and lube gasket, then replace the old oil filter with the new oil filter. Finally, add clean oil to the motorcycle until the oil level window shows oil in the middle of the viewing window when the bike is upright. ,,,
Exhaust
The most likely cause is that the motor is running very lean. Make sure that all of the componets for the air intake system are connected and not leaking. This can happen if you have changed to one of the new high flow air cleaners like K&N. This causes the air/fuel mixture to have too much air and not enough fuel (lean). If you can adjust the carb then make it richer.,
Mud stain
depends on what material is stained..
Aluminium stains can be very tricky to get clean if not impossible...some cleaners will also cause a orange/reddish stain wich will not come out unless you use some harsh chemicals to get them out. problem is it's hard to get to those chemicals.
IF you happen to have a truck wash nearby where they wash the big trucks (18 wheelers)take your parts there and tell them to use some brightener on it it's a chemical that really cleans aluminium.it may cost you a little bit of money but that stuff really works and i haven't been able to find that stuff for private sale anywhere.
the number 2 reasons for stains on the bike are :
1) waiting to long to wash the bike some types of sand/mud especially the red dirt we have down south here will stain a bike if you leave it on the bike not only that it dries as hard as concrete and is very difficult to remove , so was your bike ASAP.
2) washing chemicals. Some chemicals / soaps when they are left too long on aluminium will leave stains as it reacts with the aluminium , these stains are almost impossible to get out. ,,,
I'm trying to find a Top end rebuild kit for a 2010 Qlink Front Runner 500 for carb. Everything listed appears to be EFI. HELP please.
The good news is that there are rebuild kits available specifically for carbureted engines.
To ensure compatibility, I recommend checking if there's a rebuild tag on your carburetor. This thin metal tag is often held by one of the small screws that connect the top and bottom halves of the carburetor. It contains essential information about the carburetor model.
If the rebuild tag is missing, you can try looking up the kit using the number stamped into the side of the carb body. Alternatively, provide the make and model details to your parts supplier-they should be able to assist you.
Carburetor Rebuild Kits:
While most listings might focus on EFI, there are still options available for carbureted engines.
Consider searching for a custom carburetor rebuild kit specifically designed for your 2010 Qlink Front Runner 500. These kits include components needed for a top-end rebuild.
One such option is the QLink Front Runner FR 500 UTV 4x4 Custom Carburetor Carb Stage 1-3 Jet Kit available on Amazon. It offers increased performance, faster throttle response, and stops lean exhaust popping.
Remember to double-check the compatibility and specifications before making a purchase.

2008 Q-Link Legacy flashers aren't working
It seems like you're encountering an issue with the flashers on your newly acquired motorcycle. I can provide you with a few suggestions to help you troubleshoot the problem:
1. Check the Fuse: Locate the fuse box for your motorcycle and inspect the flasher-related fuses. Look for any blown fuses and replace them if necessary. It's possible that a blown fuse is causing the lack of response from the flashers.
2. Test the Flasher Relay: Although you mentioned replacing the flasher relay with an OEM part, it's still worth double-checking its functionality. Sometimes, even new parts can be defective. If possible, try swapping the flasher relay with a known working one from another part of the motorcycle, such as the turn signal or hazard light relay, and see if that resolves the issue.
3. Examine the Wiring: Carefully inspect the wiring harness for any signs of damage, loose connections, or corrosion. Focus on the area near the flashers and follow the wires to ensure they are intact and securely connected. Look for any exposed wires, pinched sections, or loose connectors that may be causing a break in the circuit. Repair or replace any damaged wiring as needed.
4. Verify Switch Operation: Check the operation of the left-hand control switch that activates the flashers. Ensure that the switch is functioning correctly and making proper contact. Sometimes, dirt or debris can accumulate within the switch, causing it to malfunction. If necessary, clean the switch or consider replacing it if the issue persists.
5. Consult a Mechanic: If you've exhausted the above steps and still haven't resolved the problem, it may be best to seek assistance from a motorcycle mechanic or an experienced electrician. They will have the expertise and specialized tools to diagnose and fix electrical issues accurately.
Remember to exercise caution when working with electrical components. If you're uncertain or uncomfortable with the troubleshooting process, it's always advisable to seek professional help to avoid any potential risks or further damage.
Tube hanging from bottem of bike
Most likely a drain tube for either battery, or most likely the drain for any spilled fuel when filling the tank. If you overfill the tank the excess fuel should be directed beneath the bike by a drain hose connected to the filler spout.
