Agreed so even more of a reason to order two gaskets and the starter clutch.  Its always better to have then to need! 

I ordered a second gasket and will need to shop around for the one way bearing I think.

Have you priced it ?  Should be no more then $60 bucks and a lot of them come with the gasket. 

The OEM is higher priced so I ordered an aftermarket with bolts for $28. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Starter-Clutch-One-Way-Bearing-Sprag-For-Yamaha-5Lp-15590-00-00/291688226787?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649

I have two gaskets coming so I'm going to put the aftermarket in with the existing gear and see how it goes. If it doesn't last, I'll open it up again and replace with OE and a new gear or get an aftermarket kit. 

I also ordered an OE oil pump chain because I think mine is stretched: https://www.ebay.com/itm/YAMAHA-CHAIN-2002-2008-YFM660-GRIZZLY-2004-2008-YXR660-RHINO-94581-94070-00/273490598260?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649

I didn't have a puller around and ordered this one for $24: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Tusk-Flywheel-Puller-Remover-35mm-YAMAHA-GRIZZLY-350-400-450-550-660-700-rotor/172483117628?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649

@Frank Angerano Thanks for your offer on sending the puller but shiping there and back, it was worth to just get one and have it on hand part of my "collection" 😁

Absolutely welcome brother.  Looks like you ordered the right stuff! I agree with throwing the new gasket on but just spray carburetor cleaner on the one way clutch and clean it good.  I think fresh oil and and you will be good to go. Worst case it acts up and you have the new one on hand.

I haven't even started to put this back together yet. Got shifted to other projects like landscaping....and because walmart hasn't sent me my oil, I now have to run out! I ordered it on April 9th and still delayed...

So I decided to also order it for pick up and will probably run out Friday or Saturday because I need to go to a bunch of other places...was trying to avoid going to the store unless I absolutely had to and they have the best price...with corona its a process...mask, gloves, disinfect everything, shower 15 times...

Hopefully back together this weekend.

Figured I’d replace the bearing now than in the winter if it goes. Replaced the oil pump chain but the old one and new had same amount of play so probably didn’t need to do that.... 

Got the flywheel off and couldn’t find my 6mm allen socket to take off the bearing, so ran to Lowes and bought a metric set. Go it off and went to put the new one on and realized it’s wrong! I must have messed up in my searching on eBay and bought the wrong one. Cleaned the old one and reinstalled. Put it back together and fired up after cranking for a bit after messing with the choke, almost like timing off but then started. Still need to put antifreeze in it, no way to do it without disconnecting coolant hoses. 

I cleaned the bearing and inspected. We’ll see how long it lasts. At first when it wouldn’t start I thought maybe I messed something up. I’ll get back at it tomorrow hopefully.

So didn't last long at all, started doing the same thing. I've been waiting for part from Rocky Mountain for a week. Have to take it all apart again and replace that starter clutch. I also ordered a new battery from batteryclerk.com. Got it in 2 days.

      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.
