  1. Today
  2. I pulled both grease caps. Grease Buddies full. No evidence of water / rust. Had red SK red high temp grease. Tightened one hub lock nut. Painted inside of wheel well. Here in Florida you have to watch as some trailers stored near the ocean will rust fast.
  3. Damn, Mike you are too much!
  4. 2 pin trailer connectors. You will see them on a lot of battery chargers. They usually include the clamps that plug in to the connector. Arctic Cats have two of them, the front one is switched, the rear one is always on power. I connect my battery tender to it when storing the machines. I am sure other brands have the same connectors. I use them for my refrigerators as well. Shown here is my breakout box that I use when camping. It provides power for 12 volt items with the ciggie lighter sockets. I also have USB ports for charging phones and whatever. The back side is those connectors. Two of them are high current (15 amps) two are low current (5 amps)
  5. Social media has taken over the traditional forum boards. A lot of them I used to be on have gone down or are pretty much dead. I think part of it is the "instant gratification" that social media can give a person, but a forum board can't. Look at how videos have changed, nowadays it is all "short" videos. People want that quick fix and their attention span has shortened because of this.
  6. Thats fast, nice cooler.
  7. However, it cools fast...from 78 F to 27 F in less than 30 minutes! And the digital temp display is great.
  8. Yesterday
  9. Welcome! Great little machines light and easy to mauver, good luck with your project.
  10. Welcome to QC from Colorado !!
  11. Smart...especially if loaded...I stop after 2 miles and tighten straps. then again after 45 minutes or so and feel hubs or use my scanner and pee. LOL.
  12. Good idea to check them so you Know what you are dealing with to begin with! FYI: I checked the Wheel Bearings in LA. as well as N.Michigan before heading Home from these trips!
  13. I am going to pull wheels and check bearings. But if Ok i'll leave bearing buddies on.
  14. I've used "Bearing Buddies" on ALL my Trailers for years -Never had a Problem! -I towed my 5'x8' Enclosed Trailer with my Harley Lowrider from Fl, to LA.& back without Any concerns. Same trailer w/ Harley,towed from Daytona to N.Michigan & back to Pt. Charlotte,Fl.-again NO Problems!
  15. Nice looking trailer
  16. I got into quads mostly for trail riding and having something fun to work on. I picked up a couple of Kawasaki Bayou 220s, and used to ride them pretty regularly. They’ve been sitting for a few years, so now I’m working on getting them running again.
  17. Hello everyone. I’m working on getting a couple of older Kawasaki Bayou 220s running again. I’ll mostly be reading and learning, but I’m glad I found a forum with information on these older machines as well as a ton of other info.
  18. It is heavy empty....I did not want to "strain my Milk" as guys say....Whatever that means...LOL
  19. The 53 Qt freezer/ refrigerator has a basket for freezer compartment so I can put empty freezer in car without straining ..its heavy. Then put the basket of frozen food in.
  20. For now just leave it as is. It has "Bearinng Buddies" on it I am not sureI like those.
  21. Last week
  22. Well, If trailer has the SxS on it the tail gate probably wont add any mor air drag than SxS. If empty the gate will lay flat on trailer. You figure?
  23. Depends on the velocity of the umm "air"
  24. NICE,Looks very Good ! Use Thompson's Water Seal on the PT Decking ,works great ! Leave the Ramp as is it'll come in handy! Hope this one does what you want/need! Air Drag would be VERY Minimal !
  25. Gate is huge! pressure washed it working on getting rid of my suntan lines...so deck looks good but need to add some type of finish to it.
  26. It's got a 4 ft gate. I want to maybe cut it in half or eliminate it...air drag on long trips.. You Think?
  27. Nothing wrong with cheap, sounds like a nice rig, steel is good , doesnt break like aluminum, if you have a mishap. I do love aluminum though shiny no rust and pretty.very little maintenance to keep it looking good.

      Hey guys and gals. I've been working on my friends 2007 big bear IRS. Unfortunately after 3 different people got their hands on it and only made things worse every time.  After months of finding just crazy problems everywhere. I'm finally at the point we're its almost 100% !!! But I'm getting a short somewhere between the 4xW switch I believe. I managed to by searching the internet like a  fiend, got my hands on an official Yamaha wire harness for the year and make. But I don't have the numbered component list and to be honest. After hours of going through and making everything so it's  easy to reference. If anyone has a picture of the referenced components. I would be forever in your debt. I've spent hours marking up the blown up diagram so it will be easy, for any possible future repairs. Please and thank you. Here's a picture of what i have so far.  Unsealed it in plastic so oil and crap won't spill or get smudged. This damn things worth it's weight in gold.              Thanks Jeff                2007 Yamaha big bear 400 IRS.       YFM40FBW
