Hey you all I just thought I would share my nightmare with GPR.

1) It took me 3 months to finally receive after multiple back orders

2) When i received it, the very first sentence in the install instructions was, may need to buy a new steering stem. (Not indicated when buying)

Sure enough, my nice chrome Lonestar Racing steering stem only has a spread of 2 and half inches. The GPR requires a 4 inch spread. So after a long discussion by my neighbor (owns a shop i orer parts through) with the distributor, they would not take the $500 GPR back. So now i have to buy a new Roll Design Steering stem just so i can use the GPR. Also anyone with a banshee, there will be a nice lsr steering stem for sale in the next month.

I asked GPR if they made a adapter plate where the steering stem can bolt onto along with the GPR. Only problem would be ensuring the plated is thin enough for the bolts. On top of that something stainless or billet so it wont rust. My neighbor submitted paperwork to roll design for dealership so i will get the new one at about 50% of cost. So I will just do that I think to ensure everything goes flawless and just sell the old one that is still practically brand new. Thank you for the offer! Tim

      Hi All.  I introduced myself some weeks ago with my 2006 LT-F400F that needed a list of repairs including replacing the cracked generator cover.  It is back together as of last night and cranks up, idles and revs high pretty well.  Needs some fine tuning and stop backfiring at stop.
      The big issue is it will not go into gear.  I reassembled the insides with help from y’all’s posts.  The transfer selector moves from H-L-R, and the foot shifter moves thru the gears and finds neutral easily enough.  Before I tear it back open, the  transfer selector on top does not move as far as the repair manual says.  The diagram shows the shaft moving something like 40 degrees between L and H and 50+ degrees between L and R but it doesn’t move that far even though it finds the indent areas and moves well.  
      Could this be the problem.  I aligned all the dots on the shifter gears inside and it appeared to not be binding anywhere.  I do hear the gears touching when I shift like they are trying to engage, but zero movement from the ARV
      It was somewhat difficult to tell whether all the parts are installed on each shaft.
      Are there better/bigger photos somewhere that would allow me to be confident I included all the washers and bushings, etc?  If I had any doubt on parts that were laying inside after the cover broke then I purchased replacements from online stores.
      TIA for any input or feedback!!  Pics are from when I first took the generator cover off.

      In search of my first ATV? What are good older 4x4 models?

      So I decided to pick up a small trailer if I could get one for the right price.  I found this one for a few hundred bucks on Craig’s list.  It is  a galvanized trailer which is exactly what I was looking for. The wood was shot and needed some minor repairs which I could care less about as long as the chassis was good. 
      I striped it down and put a new deck on. I had some vinyl realtree graphics that I had laying around so I added them to the fenders which I think worked out well. Very happy with this little guy.  
      I'm having the iron workers at my jobmake me up a few lightweight side rails that will have a 22 degree bend in them to accommodate the tires that slightly hang over the edge and will incorporate some tie down points as well.

      I rebuilt the top end on my 2007 Honda Trx500fe. It ran fine right after the rebuilt. But now when I try to crank it it blows Bach through the carburetor. I held my hand over the opening for the intake air and it blew gas back on my hand. Can figure out what happened all of a sudden. It was cranking and was able to ride it running through all the gears. Now can get it to crank just blowing gas back to the air filter. Need help again. Starting to think I should have walked away from this one.
