What's someone's thoughts on replacing servo motor and not the whole thing? I've removed servo housing and removed motor but don't want to buy just the motor if its better to replace the whole thing.

Thanks

I would recommend replacing the motor vs the complete assembly. The Yamaha OEM assembly is a quality assembly and unless it's cracked or busted, I would keep it as long as possible. The motor is an easy install and much cheaper than the whole assembly. Once you replace the motor, you'll basically have a new assembly. Here is the link to the motors.

Its a 2006 Kodiak 450

Oleblue, that's what I did. Figured I had it off and apart and that was the cheaper route to go. The atv isn't in the best shape so didn't want to sink a bunch of money in it. I appreciate the input. Thanks

      I was looking to buy a new ATV. 
      I was debating between Polaris sportsman 450 and Honda rancher.
      Polaris it a bit cheaper.
      But can you tell me which one will have more demand on the used market? Which one will keep it's value better?
       
      Let's say 3-5 years from now.

      I have had my new tires for a while, chronic procrastinator, decided it was time to get them mounted up. Against my better judgement i decided to mount them myself.
       

      I got one of these Harbour Freight manual tire mounting machines, mounted it to a half pallet to make it more portable. Very impressed with the quality and amount of tools that came in the kit for a low price point.
       

      The bead breaker worked very well, i wasnt sure it would be able to do it, i think these tires are original to the bike its a 2004, but with enough lube, mothers concentrated car wash straight, it finally broke the bead.
       

      Tire fit very well on the machine and it tightened down good.
       

      The extra long pry bar that came with the kit worked well to get the outer rim of tire off.
       

      Half way there, half way there no issues, then it got serious.
       

      I pulled and i tugged had 3 prybars working this thing and it wouldnt budge no matter what i tried it would not come off, until i got the grinder out and cut it off. Im sure most of you see what the problem was. I didnt notice it until i was too far in to change direction. On this particular rim the tire goes on and off from the back side of the rim, not the front like what i was used to. The back side is the low side. Plus to add to the problem tires were old and not very strechy, i have a greater respect for how well these ATV tires are made with well reinforced sidewalls, even with the grinder it took me a minute or two to cut through it, of couse i was being very careful not to nick the rim. Anyway the HF machine worked well and the tire is off, hopefully the next one wont be this bad. Lot of hard work for an old man, glad i can still do it.
       

      Now for the fun part , cleaning up the old rim, years of stop leak and slime caked on the inside, that stuff dries hard, the little Milwaukee is good for getting into tight spaces, but wasnt quite up to the task.
       

      Needed a few more RPMs.

      Old rattlecan paint just flaked right off. Now time to decide on a new color, tired of the boring gray. More to come!
