Hello,

I am new to four wheeling and just purchased a 1998 Honda fourtrax two wheel drive. It is in fairly good condition but has some parts missing. I am a little anal and want to have it look as close to new as possible.

I am looking for some rear fender parts specifically the right side black fender flair that has the plastic rivets that connects to the tan plastic fender and the frame support bar that ties to the fender. I also need both side foot protectors and the plastic cover over the kick starter (tan). I also need to replace the rear brake pads. Are there reputable on-line parts sources that are cheaper then the dealer? Is there anyplace on-line I can go to see how to change the rear pads.

It also bothers me that I do not have the original manual so I don't know things like; what type of motor oil to use and capacity and what other maintenance there is. I cannot find any grease zerks. Are there any? Is there a way to download a copy of the owners manual. What maintenance tends to get overlooked that I should check?

Does anyone have any advice for a first timer.

Thanks

      Hi, I have been around everything with a motor since I was little, and finally purchased more to get my husband, and kids involved. I have 4 quads I will be searching around for information on. I have two 2002 Suzuki LT80K quads, a 1997 Yamaha Timberwolf 250, and a 1996 Kawasaki Bayou 220. I have had different ones throughout the years, and plan on buying another Yamaha Banshee. I plan on trying to learn more about all of them, so I can customize some of them. I know nothing about them besides how to race them, my dad always took care of the rest, but figured it was time for me to learn.

      I recently read an article about restoring or at least improving the looks of faded and discolored plastic body parts. In the article it suggested using a 50/50 mixture of boiled linseed oil and paint thinner. You mix it up and apply it with a brush or rag to rub it in and remove the oxidation. I curious to find out if anyone has had experience with doing this and what was their short/long term results of doing so. I would hate to try it and find out that a few weeks/months down the road my plastic body parts self destruct.

      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!
