Hey all, Thanks for having me in the forum. I just purchased my first ATV and am stoked to understand more about it.
The first stupid question will be, what is everyone's maintenance schedule? DO yo follow the recommended intervals or build one yourself based on the machine.
Thanks in advance.

Hey guys iv kinda gotten myself into a pickle here and hopefully someone that really knows about these kodiaks will chim in please. Anyways whats going on is iv got a Kodiak 450 that was stuck in gear when i bought the bike. Stuck in gear meaning that the transmission was locked up. The motor still ran good it just wouldnt move. So i pulled the engine and split the case and found that 3 gears had teeth broken off of them. And might i add, the metal that these gears are made of is complete trash! Well at least the metal that my original gears are made of are but the gear-set that i ordered the metal looks to be made of a completely different material. Not sure if this is the correct word for it but i wanna say "Pot metal" is what im thinking iv heard that be called before it has like air bubbles throughout the whole thing it looks like. Anyways my issue is that the gearset that i ordered looks almost identical all except 2 of the gears the ones that the chain goes on which drives the output shaft that runs the middle drive gear so i found a chain thats supposed to be for a kodiak 400 since those are what gears i bought that didnt come with the chain. I was just assuming that the good chain that i had was going to fit the new gears. Does anyone know anything about the transmissions in these bikes that wouldnt mind helping me out? The 400 chain should be here in the next couple days when i get it ill let yall know if it ended up fitting the gears i have or not

Hello,
Picked up what i thought was a 1997 KQ 300, it is missing all the plastic body fenders and the head light plastics.
Checked the VIN with one of the decoders from this forum and it said my quad was actually a 2002 LTF 300 F
which is fine, just wondering what changes were made from 1997 to 2002, Some service manuals list 1998 to 2002 as the same range/model.
I may check engine number as well to confirm engine year and model
I need correct identification for parts ordering etc.
I noticed some changes from the 1997 to 2000s models with the rear wheel driveshafts.
My rear shafts have an inner joint rubber cover (not sure if they are CVs or UJs), then appear to go to wheel hub without a 2nd flexible joint,
in other words it is most likely rear wheel drives are a single CV joint.
earlier models appear to be 2 UJs, am i correct here ?
Have ordered a cheapo CD service manual that hopefully should clear this up
regards
OZ
