New guy, used quad

Hey guys, new guy here. Just picked up my new to me 2004 Sportsman 700 twin. Had some time to rip up my backyard, lawn is in rough shape lol. Here are a couple photos, lemme know what you think. Picked it up for a pretty good price, however when I was driving it around the yard and getting the revs up higher, it almost seemed like it would sputter, any ideas on why?

As far as I can tell, air filter is bran-new, and plugs and all fluids (other than gas) have been changed/replaced.

I will have to look into it more. Today was my Sunday, it's back to work tomorrow for another week, probably wont have too much time during the week to tinker. I gotta say, that thing is fun, even just ripping around in the yard. I'm gonna have a couple quick videos my wife took earlier i am working on uploading. Stay tuned...
