Hi there,

I have 84 trx 200.It's just a beater machine that I picked for cheap. It runs fine, but there is a lot of play in the front end of the machine. Just wondering if it could be a tie rod maybe? hoping it will be an easy fix? But I have my doubts on that one.? Any leads or suggestions would be be awesome! Thanks and happy 4th! - Dave

It could be a tie rod or a ball joint. Have you raised the front end and shaken the tire to see what's moving? You'll see slap in the tie rod and or ball joint. This video applies to cars but the principle is the same

Check that your tie rod ends are good and the your tie rods are not bent. Also check that your wheels are aligned. Mine felt loose also until I realigned it. It was about 12mm toe out. The specs call for 0-7.5mm toe in.

      Wanted- Honda TRX300 front wheels -2WD

      Looking for two stock front wheels for 92 TRX300 2WD.   I think they are 6 x11" size.

      I recently noticed my Fourtrax 2WD has 4WD wheels installed on the front.  The back spacing is significantly different than 2WD wheels and they are almost touching the strut springs and the tires actually do touch the springs..   So far, no luck locating 2WD wheels to correct this issue.

      1989 Yamaha big bear 350 front brake cylinders
      By Olchap
      Hi, I am new to this forum I am currently working on my 1989 Yamaha front end.  The cv axles were bad so I changed them on both sides with all new wheel bearings. Now I'm looking at the front brakes and the 2 cylinders for the brake shoes on both sides do not work at all. I am also new at working on brakes so its a mystery to me what needs to be done to fix the cylinders.  Can somebody please help me with these brake issues? See the image below.
      Thank you,
      Olchap

      Raptor Pre-ignition?? (Maybe)
      By jordan_ATV
      I got a 2005 350 Raptor Special Edition and I'm dealing with a no start issue; the weirdest thing is when I'm cranking it fires and slows down showing signs of pre firing, smoke shoots out the carburetor every time it sparks. every electrical part (CDI, Rectifier, Stator, Coil) has been swapped out from previous owner, the top end of the engines all new and I cleaned the carb out, anyone got any ideas or similar problems, also is it possible to have a bad spark timing

      2003 Polaris Sportsman 400 - Right front tire will not disengage from AWD
      By wjmedic
      Recently rebuilt front end on this Polaris 400. New axles, bearings, seals, control arm bushings, Hilliard clutch thoroughly cleaned and inspected with no damage noted. 
      Everything put back to together. Placed bike on jack stands all four wheels off the ground, started in 2 WD switched to AWD both front tires spinning, when AWD turned
      off right front wheel will not disengage from AWD. Checked voltage at connectors both left and right connectors have no voltage with AWD switch off, and both have 12.4V
      when AWD switch is turned on. Repeated turning switch on and off several times with no change in condition. I am thinking this must be something mechanical with the 
      Hilliard clutch on the right hub ie. weak spring or stuck rollers on the Hilliard clutch assembly (Is this a logical thought?) any ideas on trouble shooting this before I disassemble the 
      right front hub again
