Future of Atv's.


Recommended Posts

Yeah, I'd say with the ITP wheels/tires I have my Brute is over 650 pounds without me on it. The tires (TerraCrosses) do a great job of making it feel a lot lighter, but when it starts to lean, you can really feel it. Gets scary in off-camber situations.

ok so in today's race there were a ton of off camber tight sections....at one point i hit a tree rut, stood my quad up on the grab bar, preceded to fall of the back and have it come crashing down on me...how i don't get more hurt, i don't know, i have like God's protective sheild over me...even though it does hurt like heck, but i couldn't imagine that happening with a utility.

i want a rekluse for my 400ex. someone tell them to make it please. maybe then i wouldnt get arm pump so bad.

:aargh::laugh::biggrin::realmad::wink:

FUTURE of ATVS is the name of this thread. TB was just trying to ask you nicely to stay on topic.It would have been been on topic if yous said Kawasaki needs to lower the Brute force.So please either start a new thread about that topic and respect this thread. I say start a new thread about because some BruteForce riders might agree with you.

TB sorry to hijack your thread, but it looked like nobody else is going to back you up.

Sorry...wasn't trying to be an a-hole or anything. Looking back I see that it was sort of off-topic, but it can all be related back to how I think that some utility quads need to be lighter in the future...which does have to do with the future of quads.

I would like to see a company make a big bore sport quad but with different options. Such as if you are a desert racer comes with some good desert terrain tires and a bigger tank. Someone who rides dunes, comes with lots of weight shed and sand tires all around. They could do the gearing different for each, different shock setup as far as stiffness and all that.

well i would say polaris is half way there.

they got the IRS, S, and a 450. one for trails,one for sand, one for track.

      Hey I have a 1997 big bear 350 4x4
      I replaced the shifter shaft and the shift arm linkage and the rod when I installed them all I was unaware that you had to line the dot on the shifter shaft with the gap on the linkage arm gap put it all back  together and rode it I can't get it to shift in the right gears  I can move the shift cam by hand and goes in different gears but with the shifter shaft in it riding I can't put it in R or N 
      Anyone know how to line up the shifter shaft and the shift cam s

      Hi guys
      My 87 Bear 350 won't start and could use a hand.
      Turn key on and Oil light turns on and then slowly fades out. (I think this is key to this) No start, not even a tick.
      battery and connections good
      A Solenoid post jump turns it over
      Neutral Safety Switch wire attached and seems good
      It has not had a wire/switch on Rear Brake Pedal ever since I had it.
      Any thoughts on some other things to troubleshoot this??

      I am working on a basket case for a friend.  It is a 98 Big Bear (YFM350FWB).  It came with a parts machine which is a 96, which I am coming to find out is VERY different from his machine.
       
      Anyway, first thing is first.  I checked compression, 150psi.  Valves are set correctly, and the engine is in time.  I cleaned the carb, and there was some junk in the passages.  It is a chinese carb, which I figured from the lack of markings or lettering altogether.
       
      The bike runs.  It idles ok, but breaks up badly under acceleration.  Pulling a new spark plug shows it is running lean.  White strap, with no black whatsoever.  So I have the carb adjusted with the mixture screw out way too much (about 5 turns), and the diaphragm needle lifted to the top slot.  It is still not getting enough fuel (or too much air).  It backfires through the carb, and cannot get above idle without carrying on.  The carb boot is in good shape, so it isn't pulling any air there.  I did test this as well by spraying ether around the boot when running, looking for intake leaks.
       
      Anything big I am missing here?  I am starting to believe that this chinese carb is the issue.  This quad came with the original carb, which I would like to rebuild and use, but the mixture screw is totally stuck, and stripped way down in its recess.  
       
      Thanks for any assistance.

      I just want to clarify that i was doing the timing correct. I wanted to adjust the valves, so, I removed the spark plug, I removed that little black plastic cap on the side, then, i turned the engine counterclockwise until the "T" lined up with the small groove on the threads where that black cap screws in. Then i checked the valve clearances.
      So, what is the "F" mark for?
      I hope the "T" was the right mark to use.  lol

      My Yamaha Big Bear shifts through all the gears good, goes into reverse smoothly, but when i go to get out of reverse it takes a lot of effort to get it back to first gear, and even then it does not go very smoothly, have to pull up on the pedal really hard, anyone else ever had this problem. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
