Hey peeps, so I’m about to change out my steel cable for a synthetic with a smooth aluminum hawse instead of a fair lead. (Did this on my old Canam and liked it a lot better) I know there’s mixed ideas on steel cables vs synthetic, but I’ve had that discussion already. for how I use it the synthetic works best for me.

 

What imma ask about here is are there any tips on switching the cable out on our CF machines? Or is it basically the same as any Warn-type ATV winch? Cuz like CFMOTO uses these Winchy McPullerton brand ones (which really does seem to be the same as any other winch I’ve had,) just haven’t messed with this one much in the way of maintenance yet, so I figured I’d ask about any surprises. I also like that the roller fairlead nuts are captured in the frame. That part was a PITA on my canam cuz they were free, but hardly any room back there to brace them.

 

CFMOTO has done (IMO) a great job on these machines making them a lot like what were already used to in terms of design and common style parts so I anticipate this to not be much different. Just figured I’d ask. Thanks for any input. [emoji1598]

      Hi everyone and thanks for reading. 
      My husband and me are getting ready to host the 2nd Quad Runners event at our nudist campground. The first one (last year) went pretty well with about 20 quads attending and have to say, it was a smaller group, but they made up for their size with the large interest in partying and there was plenty of nudity as the Saturday night went on. 
      We have decided to host another one this summer, but we are looking for some fun (but safe) riding events. Our grounds are almost all flat and remember we are a nudist campground so many of us are bare as* naked so "slow ride" events would be the best. 
      Give us your thoughts and ideas and feel free to ask us anything you would like, and we will answer right here in the thread. 
      Thanks for your help and ride safe. 
      BTW, let us know what "anything goes" means for this thread section.

      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.

      This 2006 ArticCat dvx400 didn't have a reverse cable. I got one and am wondering how it routes? If someone has a dvx400, could post a pic of there reverse cable routing, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

      I have replaced the cracked stator cover on my non-running 2006 LT-F400F that I purchased recently, checked all the shafts vs the service manual and pics and advice here.  I replaced missing gears, bushings and washers, made sure that truth marks were all aligned properly, that the shift cam springs felt like they returned properly, etc.  IAfter installing the new stator cover I checked the transfer lever for proper movement from L-H-R and then cranked it up.  Happily, it runs and changes gears well in L,  but it will not shift into H or R for anything.  I have opened it back up and am going back through it looking for the missing puzzle piece(s) but how can I best check that I have everything right this time before buttoning it back up?

      Does anyone know if they're interchangeable?  I have a 2002 TRX20TE and 2007 TRX250TE, so getting to a set of common engine parts would be ideal.
