Big Bear 350 - minimum servicing

[Nigel Bourn]

Hi All

So far the parts I have to give this ATV some love are:

Oil and air filter
Spark Plug
Diff oil
Engine oil
Crush washer for the diff
New plug and O ring for the engine drain
New o rings for the oil pump housing

Anything else I should get?

 

Cheers

No sir, that about covers it, nice work. That will add a lot of extra years to a bike.  

Ride safe !

I hope so, the oil doesn't smell burned, but it's pretty black. It rides pretty well, so hopefully I havent bought a lemon!

 

Cheers

If it runs well your good to go. Some people just don’t change oil and it gets black. I would change it a few more times using a cheaper oil at first and then go to a better oil on the last change that’s going to be your running oil.  And from there just stay on top of it over time.

Ok cool I will run a few changes through it, thanks!
