Been a while since i posted as other stuff has taken priority. 

Picked up a 88 Terra Pro the other day, man this thing is rough. Missing gas tank,

carb, all cables locked up or broken, But the bike looks interesting, never seen one. 

All i see listed is 350cc but this one is a 250? Has 5 speed live clutch, PTO, looks kinda cool. 

Who knows when it ran last. Got it from a guy said he got it from a friend years ago like that

so probably hasnt run in 15 yrs or so. Started working on it, the oil was full of gas, drained it 

put fresh oil in it. Pulled the plug which was fouled black, im sure it was flooding. Cleaned the plug

and actually got it to crank with the start button. Got cables, carb, and a gas tank on the way. Hoping

for the best. Az

Very cool, Always wanted one. There is a mower deck that is supposed to go with it. That is what the PTO is for. 

Would have been perfect for the property I had at the time. 

Hope you get it going. Looking back I always kind of figured the mower deck would be underpowered but who knows. Mowing around ponds, side hills that was a great solution.

      Starter not staying engaged while cranking
      By HoldenBoy
      Hi all,
      Looking for some help on a starter/bendix issue. Can Am outlander 450 2017. While cranking to start, the starter spins and engages into the ring gear. After a few seconds the bendix retracts while still spinning and there is no damaged teeth on the drive pulley.

      Quadmaster 500 Carb

      What is the best way to remove the carb on a 2000 quadmaster 500? Does the gas tank need to come off first?

      2003 Kawasaki bayou 250 carb problem
      By dkgg5755
      This thing came with a cheap aftermarket carb on it the problem I'm having is it won't start with choke installed into carburetor it will start and get run without it installed then bogs out after about 2 min run time I've checked timing , compression, checked valves for proper clearance , also did a smoke test for air leaks found none.

      2007 Yamaha Grizzly 350 carb mixture screw
      By Louznmemind
      (Question is at the end if you want to skip my blabbering) I got this unbelievably well taken care of Grizzly 350 in for a carb clean, it belongs to an elderly couple that bought it brand new in '07. Apparently whoever has been doing their oil changes for them never checked the air filter..
      Obviously it got debris in the carb, it would still run but only idle with slight choke. I've taken it apart and cleaned it, have new o rings, gaskets, etc. As far as the mixture screw is concerned, I'm assuming I obviously need to remove the plug. I'm mainly a lawn equipment guy, I've worked on slide carbs in the past but never an unmolested one with the plug still intact. I hate to mess with it as the carb had very little debris but I'm sure the o ring needs to be replaced at minimum. Finally, the question: what's the best way of removing the plug? I DO NOT want to mess up this carb..

      Help with 1987 Yamaha Big Bear YFM350FWT Carb
      By ResQ91
      Hi Guys!

      New member and could really use your advice. I would have to believe this has been an issue for others but a search here came up with nothing......? (Probably me not doing search correctly)
       
      I have an 87 Big Bear 350 YFM350FWT
      The OEM Mikuni BTM carb is shot and would rather replace than rebuild.
      It is no longer made and I have had good luck with NICHE carbs so I ordered a #K-CRB-0006 This was what they said was replacement when ordered. This Carb only uses 1 Throttle cable. The Slide is linked so it uses one. (OEM had 2nd cable coming through top to move slide)
       
      Problem is when I ordered a replacement Cable from NICHE (#C-CBL-0061) the Cable wire is a little short, not allowing Throttle to return all the way down to Idle position. I called NICHE and they are at a loss. Haven't gotten back to me after 2+ weeks.
       
      What would you recommend other than a carb rebuild?
      Can I just use 1 of the OEM cables (It is the right length) and snip/disconnect the other that went to top of Carb for Slide?
      Or ??
       
      Thanks in advance for any advice you have!!
       
      Dave
