New atv mechanic mom in training


Recommended Posts

Hi, my names jade 25. Western NC Mom of two young boys. Who wouldn’t have a fourwheeler if I hadn’t picked up learning about what it took to repair a China 110 quad. That lead to a passion of atv repair. 5 months in and I’ve learned quiet a bit and interested in helping and learning how to fix my current Honda 87 250x that’s been through some hands as well as a china 50cc dirt bike that’s been rebuilt on the outside and soon learn how to replace valve stems and piston rings.

Welcome to Quadcrazy @Jade Dockery You will find tons of helpful info here as well as juts some cool posts of members doing some cool stuff. So even after the bikes are ready to roll we love to see pics of everyone having fun. So ask away post as many pics as you need and remember the only stupid question is the question that’s not asked.

I'm a mom of three girls and I just got my daughter an 07 honda trx400ex for her birthday. I've worked on cars and motorcycles but this is my first time doing anything on an atv. So far, I am having a blast. Everything is so easy to access. The only problem I've ran into is finding parts, it's a little frustrating not being able to run down to the nearest auto shop and get what I need.

Patience is not my greatest strength. I literally just got done tearing apart my buell blast to get to the fuel hose on the carb so I could put it on the ATV. All of the auto stores are closed right now and I didn't want to wait until morning to get it, lol. I live in Farmington, Arkansas and I usually go to U Pull It to get parts for my car but I've never seen any motorcycles or atv's there. I need to start calling around and see if I can find a salvage yard that has them.

      What's the best kids atv out there? I've seen everything from the ones released by the major manufacturers to all those knock offs. Kawasaki has a KFX 50 that is pretty nice for under $1800...

      Anyone purchase or check out Rockymtnatv lately? Well I was just browsing over there and they have a pretty cool section called Ten Dollars Or Less. Some interesting things to check out if you are in the market.

      My king quad 700 runs rough when cold then won't start some times but not often when it's hot. And occasionally smoke's a lot when it's cold I'm guessing that's rings but I'm worried unless it's causing the other problems
       
       
       
      All help is appreciated thanks

      Has anyone else had an issue on older king quads where the oil would leak from the top of the head (due to a failed gasket) and drip onto the hot exhaust? Mine got so hot one time it caught fire. Just wondering if this is a common issue, as I've seen the same thing happen on multiple bikes that were the same model.

      My 2014 750 king quad stalls sometimes when I touch or turn the handlebars,the problem has gotten worse,my machine has 475 miles and is only trail ridden,I have a new factory battery and i have 14.2 volts when the quad is running and 13.3 on the battery when not running,also using a multimeter there is no change in volts when turning the bars until it does stall,If I pull the 40 amp power steering fuse it will not stall.......I've been told its the ECU,Hate to buy one if thats not the problem,but its kinda leaning towards that,,,,,need some opinions.
