Hunting with Quad


Recommended Posts

So got my Quad and in a matter of four weeks it's proved a game changer in my hunting prep. I used it to haul all the material to build a suspension bridge across the creek in the back of my property. That creek is a ankle deep trickle mostly except when it rains and then its up to my waist or higher. Kinda limits access during rain. Secondly iI hauled all my stands, climbing sticks and equipment out using the quad. So nice to have the mechanical muscle now.

Not yet but I'll post some once I get it back together. Been replacing parts on the old girl. Got all the lights working and replacing cables, adjusting clutch and idle, etc. It sat unused in a barn for a good three years so needs some TLC. Still I gotta say it's paid for itself just hauling all my hunting stuff out to my stand sites. Also used it to haul all the stuff to build a suspension bridge across the creek to access my hunting land. Hauling the stuff for the bridge by hand would've taken a week.

Best thing I ever did was get a set of off road dedicated wheels for hunting. I've used both quads and UTVs, wouldn't go back to trashing a much more expensive pickup (especially now) nor packing everything in. Definitely get yourself a plug/patch kit with a 12v compressor and a spare tire/wheel if you can swing it, losing a tire 5 miles out from my pickup was all I needed to convince me it was worth the extra investment!

      Starting this build thread to keep up with everything on my build and hope to motivate someone!
       
      I picked up this 2008 Yamaha Big Bear 250 2 weeks ago. A guy that I hunt with parked it at the hunt club for a year or so before I asked him if he wanted to sell. He said " fill my feeder and throw some batteries in my cameras, and you can have it". Sounds like a deal to me! 
      I have attached some pictures of how it sat under a tarp in the woods and when I got it home and cleaned up a little.

      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.
