I own a few older quads mix of kinds a couple of  Yamahas, a Honda, can-am  a Kawasaki, they are older quads but in good shape the question of the day is....... what's the best way to polish up the plastic?  I have found that Dollar General mold remover is good to get the black stuff off the plastic works good, but was wondering how you polish up the plastics on yours.

Good morning to all !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Let's see if we can make this a daily event.

Anyone using the AtV/Motorcycle lift from Harbor Freight? I like the idea of having something other than jack stands. Is there another option that I should look into? https://hftools.com/app60536  

It seems that ATV transmissions are moving more toward automatic these days, I would like to hear other members opinions and experiences, what do you like best Automatic or semi automatic in relation to, power , ease of use, and reliability.

Anyone know of places to get ATV chains that don't cost more than my new ATV? Seriously, I can outfit My 74 RC with 34x9 - 15 Swampers with Vbar tire chains for what 1 pair of ATV chains cost. And theyre not a "popular size" tire. The gougy prices at $250 to $350 a pair is . . a LOT GOUGY. If I hurt a suppliers feelings, good, they deserve it because the prices are ludicrous. I've thrown chains on everything from garden tractors to semi trucks for forty years or so. I am

First time working with a Honda-Matic transmission. I didn't even know what I was getting into when I purchased this running beat up farm workhorse quad with black oil. I was thinking I could tear the cases apart and find the bad bearing, causing the random squealing noise when you put it into gear and give it gas. Upon opening the engine covers, I Learned about the Honda Matic automatic transmission and realized there's more than just an electronic shift motor going on in these quads. With my l

I have a Suzuki Quadmaster 500, that I got from a customer.  It has less than 400 miles on it.   I think I put most of the miles on it, so they sold it to me.    I used to drive it a few times a year,  treatinjg the gas or emptying it when I could. I relocated and wanted to get it running again.   It will start with little trouble, then run for 15-20 minutes, then start to chug a bit, then finally stop.  Sometimes I can start it again, but it doesnt continue to run long after that. whe

I just brought home a used 2005 Yamaha Big Bear 400 4x4. It needs front wheel bearings, and a new choke cable. I think i can handle those two items. However, when i went to look at it, it ran good, shifted good, brakes all workds great, but at home when i started it, it would idle nice, but when i gave it gas it seemed like it was flooding out and would die. If i just gave it a little throttle it built up RPMs but any more throttle it began dying out again. any suggestions why it's doing th

I also have a magnum 4x4 that I am working on it is getting a new piston, In the tear down I pulled off the flywheel and found that all the magnets are not attached? why does this happen? there all in good shape so is it possible to reattach them to the flywheel? I can buy a different flywheel, but it looks like around $300 or more and one of them on Ebay looks like the spacing is off a little so it may have the same issue. the stator looks good also 

Ok. Here goes nothing. I have a Franken bike. It's half 99 half 01. Not really a big deal. So the lady I got the bikes from said it jumped time and won't start. One bike is complete and assembled the other is in pieces but there. I have had these for two years.    I immediately did a tear down and rebuild. I went over everything. Well fast forward to now. I found that she only had 4 head bolts in it . That is why it jumped and also why she said the timing chain had to be real tight. I can get it

95 bayou 300 2wheel. This is my first four wheeler. The guy I bought it from showed me slight drip on his floor from a drain plug he recently retapped. I figured I could handle a small leak from a second hand machine. Well after a few times of riding it the bayou seems to be running low on oil. Now maybe this is normal operations as well so I refilled the oil. But the next day I notice my drip on the floor was slightly larger. I wanted to see this drain plug for myself so I took off the skid pla

Anyone in TN still around?

We did a week in New Hampshire to try out their trails. Weather was not the best, but not bad. We rode three of the trail systems there. There are some nice trails and views. Even spotted a moose along the trail one day. Mike    

I WANTED TO UPGRADE THE CARBURATOR ON MY 1992 BIG BEAR 350, SO I ORDERED A NEW CARB FROM EBAY.  ACCORDING TO THE WRITE-UP IT WAS A GOOD FIT FOR BIG BEARS FROM 1988 TO 1996.  WHEN I REMOVED MY ORIGINAL CARB I NOTICED THAT IT WAS DIFFERENT FROM THE NEW CARB MY CARB HAD TWO THROTTLE  CABLES THE NEW CARB ONLY HAD ONE CABLE.  HOW CAN I MAKE THIS CARB WORK ON MY TWO CABLE THROTTLE?
