What do you carry in you bag?


Recommended Posts

afternoon Boys, (click on the italic words)

I added some tools to mine that I use a lot. I live out in the sticks and keep the trails clean. I put a Machete on it, we have some strong sticker bushes round here.

It also comes in handy when goin into caves. I figure what ever is in one might not be to friendly, I can't swing it but what ever is in there will have to eat it to get to me..

I also put a stake bed on mine to keep dog from fallin out. And you gotta have a knife handy. A shovel is a must. I had to ad paddin to my rear seat so the lil Wife would stop fallin off. (I hate stopping and pickin her up all the time) Had to make a pouch for the air pump. I also needed a pouch for my cigs.

Yep, I also have a small hand saw but found that the Machete can cut/chop the tree limbs a lil easier and faster. I'm lazy. That's a heavy machete which makes it easier. Do you have them darn black berry bushes up there? We got em every where down here, I hate them critters,,,,

No we don't have them on the trails. We have vines with like big pickers. Man they hurt. I usually come back with a new hole in my jacket. We run to a lot of trees down. Some are dead and we can cut up or just pull out of the way. Others have been there for a while so we stack branches on each side to get more traction.

[EDIT] sorry about misspelling "when" in the title!!

Well, I should be getting a truck soon and will finally be able to do some nice trail riding so my first question is: What do you bring with you?

I already have a nice winch and emergency tool kit, Id bring some water... but what else?

I don't think Id need extra gas, it has a 2.5 gal tank and its only 250cc... also, I am going to buy some straps but What else? what are some good things to have on the trail?

thanks!

      Hi guys. I have a problem where the quad will start and run well for about 5 minutes and then it dies. On inspection the airbox has oil in it (quite a lot). The oil is pumping through the cylinder head breather hose. This problem first happened suddenly. I have since done the top end including, piston, gaskets, rings and valves. I have also done the carb (not that I thought that this was the problem). The compression seems normal. The only thing that I can think of, is that I did not grind the valves well enough. Anyone experienced this? If so, how did you fix it? Any other thoughts?

      I’m looking for a top end kit for a Yamaha. I would like to see how well the engine runs before spending $6-$7 hundred on oem. Niche has complete kits from $1-$2 hundred.  Anyone have experience with Niche or similar Chinese companies?

      Bucking started about a month ago and works ok after 1/2 hour warmup.  Today while working on it i discovered that if i put the ignition switch in LIGHT position it runs fine right from the start.
      I'm stumped!  Any idea why this could be?

      Hey all,
      I need some input on a problem I'm having with my Kodiak 400 that keeps fouling plugs. First off, I've done a lot of work to this thing, most of it all in good fun. Brake work, cv joints, u joints, carb kit, checked valve lash, compression good, changed all fluids, etc... My problem is it keeps fouling plugs very quickly. I can put a new (manual recommended plug) in and it starts right up, runs great, idles great, picks up good. Doesn't stutter at all. I ride it for 1/2 a mile, it cuts off and won't start back up. I let it sit overnight thinking maybe it got to hot. Try to start it the next day, nothing. Put a new plug in, fires right up, runs great for another 1/2 mile or so, dead. The plugs come out and look carbon fouled with dry black soot on them. I don't know if this is a fuel/air mixture problem or a ignition problem. A couple of things that I noticed is I never need to pull the choke out to start it. Also, when it starts it automatically idles high like an automatic choke would do, then it comes back down to a good idle. Also I noticed that the air/fuel mixture needle valve screw does nothing when I adjust it in or out. I can screw it all the way closed and the motor still runs and idles good. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I'm almost leaning to a ignition breaking down the plugs??
      Thanks!
