Hi people, just bought a Suzuki LT185 that has a disc brake rear end and need a rebuild kit for the master cylinder but cant find any parts lists that show a disc brake for these bikes, they only list a drum brake, does anyone know what year they came out with a disc on the back? Any info appreciated!

Thought Id give you my thoughts for what it's worth, I'd say you probably have an aftermarket upgrade on your LT185 - it's from the mid 80's correct?  My '86 Kawasaki Bayou has 4 wheel DRUM brakes, as does my friend's 1993 Suzuki Quadrunner.  I'm suprised they'd use a disc brake on the rear end, atv's didn't get around to using disc brakes until the late 90's.  What do you have in the front, drum brakes?  Can't find anything in parts catalogs either, you're saying the rear is hydraulic as well?  All other rear brakes I've seen are cable operated.  Sorry I couldn't help more, just an idea....:o)  Cheers!~  Bellarmine

      Hello All
      I'm kinda new to ATVs. I just bought a 1987 Suzuki quad runner 230 Dual Range. I'm having a problem finding info on it. It's very clean, only 2.800 miles. The front wheels are only 30 in.center to center. I was thinking about adding wheel spacers to give it more stability. I realize the added stress on ball joints and bearings. I'm wondering if there are any other concerns? Any input is greatly appreciated!

      I like to ride in wooded and grassy areas. It takes my mind off the everyday routines and helps me deal with my father's cancer. Also gives me a reason to get involved with forums like this one.

      I’m brand new to 4 wheelers and just bought a 1987 Yamaha Moto 4 350. It has good compression and fuel, but no spark. I’ve looked high and low trying to find how to test all the components of the ignition system, but can’t find anything. This has a new CDI box on it, but I suspect it might be the stator. How do I test the stator on this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

      i just picked this up. was told ran fine but overheating issues led to replacing head gasket and head. has not ran since. he is not a mechanic but helped someone else who he could not get back to finish job, got aggravated and put up for sale. i was thinking timing issues. i have 110-120psi on all 3 cylinders so i think valves are correct. dont know about distributor yet. however i have no spark. i have no power going to ignition coil. tried to follow white wire but gets lost in wire harness. does anyone have a wiring diagram? can anyone tell me what conditions have to be met before starting. motor turns over so i would think all safeties are met but you never know.
