New to the quad family... Worked a deal where I bought my old neighbors 1989 yamaha moto-4- 100cc 4 stroke engine. A nice quad for my first quad... Anyway I picked it up for

$120 bucks... I then installed a new coil for the $35 bucks or so ... i am into the thing for right around $150 or so... I just can not see paying 2-3-4- grad for one.... I did work a couple deals and added a pocket quad 2 cycle 49 cc for $200 and a sunl 90cc quad that I traded a Nintendo Wii {$250} and pocket bike {I had $50 into it} for the sunl.

opps i also most forgot the HONCHO quad that I have from early 80's that i picked up for $200 that has a 8hp Kolher engine on it...

so for my 4 quads I have $950 into them...

and all of them run... the Honcho needs to be taken more apart and finished restored...

:)

So I am learning on the Moto-4 and eyeing a yamaha raptor ....

More to come...

i am located in MA in East Bridgewater anyone from down in this area?

Looking for places {dare I say it } local to ride....

      Howdy ya'll. I am working ona 2000 Yamaha Breeze 125. It was in rought shape when I received it and I am working through issues as they pop up. The quad had been sitting for years. I was able to get her running again, but I need your help with the following issue:
      I don't trust the transmission yet and I don't want to make problems any worse. So, I haven't pushed things hard at all. Low rpms, less than 5mph in reverse.

      Nuetral: Runs as expected
      Reverse: She seems to be driving fine at slow speeds. Going into reverse at idle is fine, coming out of reverse back into neutral won't work (the shifter is just stuck). As soon as I turn off the quad, I am able to shift around without any issue.
      Forward: It slips. It seems to only transfer power to the wheels on a smooth surface and going slightly downhill. When shifting into forward at idle, there is a clacking sounds during the transition. Shifting back to nuetral works just fine.

      Other Notable Symptoms: There was old oil in the vbelt and when I was tuning the carb, it starting blowing out of the CVT cooling vent at the front of the quad. Made quite a mess. There is positive crankcase pressure due to piston blowby, that I have not decided whether or not I am going to fix (customer budget dependant).  Since the oil was old, much darker than the new oil that is in the crankcase, I am thinking it seeped past a bad seal while it was sitting for years. The oil that was in it when I first got it had gas in it.

      Thoughts: I am thinking maybe there is an issue with the clutch. I worry about the old oil intermingling with the dry centrifugal clutch. I was thinking my next step would be to take the cover off of the clutch and inspect it.

      Let me know what you all think. Any advice and ideas is greatly appreciated. This is only the 3rd quad I have worked on and I have a lot to learn.

      Hi guys, I have a 2004 big bear 400. Last winter while plowing the driveway, I heard a loud pop from the left side of the engine. It continued to run as I looked for leaky fluid, but then died shortly after backing it up and won’t start now. The oil light comes on when I try to start it, no noise or anything else. 
      No blown fuses that I can find.
