It is a great spot. Believe it or not 30 years ago you could go up there and see guys fishing and would have no idea but famous baseball players, actors etc would go. There were NY Mets players fishing there. My uncle used to take me and show me and tell me who was who.

Awesome. I had a buddy that use to ask me for all my deer tails fur for fly making. Rosco has some of the best fly fishing! very cool 👍

Most of them trailers come with the lock washers and nuts which really hold up well. But honestly I like the idea. Heck you have to put it together anyway might as well add a few drops on the bolts along the way! And it’s not like you can’t get it off. Great idea I think. When it’s together let see it !

Oh ok, dam that hurts man. Well good luck with the rebuild and make sure the head or cylinder is not warped from heat when you break it down and post some pics! I love to see pics. You found the right forum to help you out if you need! Good luck brother.

Wow that sucks but hopefully it’s just gaskets and that’s it! Do you know why it over heated ? Reason I’m asking is you don’t want to do all that work and have it over heat again. 😬

I don’t think it matters. I’ve used a few different manufacturers for gaskets. What went wrong on the top end ?

🙏🏻True ! I would like to get out there and see it. Me and my oldest have to get on the road this year! I just picked up a trailer plus I have the pick up. We have been talking about an out of state hunt this year coming and I think it’s a must of a road trip. So when does your hunting season begin and end ? Is it cold during your season. I would love to know some of those things and maybe a little more. I’ve had invites to go to Texas but I’m not a fan of hunting in warm weather. Lol. So we are going to make a move at some point and hunt someplace far from home and enjoy the views and ride.

No worries on the revolution. You set the valves when the engine is set at top dead center. Don’t worry about a compression stroke. Just get it to TDC make sure the T is in the flywheel spot it belongs and the cam sprocket is aligned with the marks on the head and make your adjustment on both valves. That’s it.

That background looks great, I could only imagine riding let alone hunting out there! I think I may dedicate a little time this year to a few road trips !!!!

Well you can wire the lights to both come on, high beams and low together. Thats really not a big deal. But have you ever thought about putting an extra pair of lights maybe LED type ? With a switch or wire them in series with the low beams so you can have the low beams on with the new led’s as well? Bolt on type?

Welcome to Quadcrazy @IDaman great pics!! Nice machine!

You are very welcome!

So let me get this straight. You want the high beams and low beams on at the same time ?

Def get on that. I have a feeling that’s what your problem is. 👍

That’s like the Polaris I had same thing. I always kept up on grease and proper lubricant in the gear case. Have you double checked that ?

It sounds like there is pressure on the drive train when you put the bike in park and it rolls back a hair before the park/drivetrain stops the bike. And when you go to put it in gear there is a lot of pressure on the axles. Try next time to come to a complete stop and lock the parking brake before you take it out of gear. And put it in gear before you take the brake off as well. Maybe ?

I know everyone comes here looking 👀for manuals and gets frustrated with the 10 post minimum 😢 to bad but it’s worth it trust me!!! So after you get your manual and use it here’s a topic To all the people that have worked on many types/models of ATVs and used the repair manuals for the various types of manufacturers etc. I’ve worked on quite a few different brands and have always referred to the manual where I need to. So my question is what manufacturer do you think has the better layout with regard to working on and understanding the manual? For example I have looked at quite a few electrical diagrams/schematics and have found that Kawasaki has the easiest to follow! I looked at Polaris and get completely baffled sometimes and have to decode the dam thing before I can understand it. This also follows suit with working on the engine and drive train. So I’m curious who do you think has the most user friendly repair manual???

Let me know if you have a problem finding it when you hit 10 posts. I looked up the manual and your carb detail but can’t post the pic. I’m having some difficulty posting pics.

Yes they can. And your bike should be on the last page I think in that sub category.

I will take a look and get back to you. Also keep in mind if the bike is sitting even for a short period of time the top of that pin gets a shellack type build up from the fuel sitting up there and could just be that. So don’t necessarily look for a piece of dirt etc. could be just gook!

Yes you are correct. 10 post and you can download. It’s not that hard. Some people post garbage to get that capability but that’s a sucky thing to do. The site has a lot more to offer then just manuals. That recons a good bike! I juts finished up one for my daughter. I like that bike a lot.

Hey nel welcome to Quadcrazy. That leak is an overflow condition caused by the either the float getting stuck, float pin has a piece of dirt stuck up at the top of the pin which is likely or the float has a hole in it ano good full of fuel (not likely) Make sure that the screw on the bottom of the bowl is not loose and leaking and appears to be the over flow hose draining. Take the carb off and pull the bowl off of the carb and remove the pin and clean it out. Inspect the top of the pin for damage. Put the float back in and put a clean hose on the fuel connection of the carb hold it up and blow into the fuel line and lift the float and see if it closes the air flow off. If so you should be good. Also double check the air fuel mixture screw unless the bike is running good and it’s just the fuel leak that’s the problem.

Welcome to Quadcrazy graham! So my guess would be that you kept loosing battery power after a certain time and wound up changing the battery thinking it’s a bad battery. The new battery was working great up until it died as well. It was prob not charging in the first place. So you continually jumped the bike to start it ? If so there is a good chance you killed the stator coil inside the engine. Most stator coils fail from only a few things 1. Someone welded on the bike without disconnecting the stator coil. Not your case I’m sure. 2. Continually jump starting with a larger battery like a car battery or a jumper pack. I’m thinking your rectifier is prob bad causing your battery not to properly charge. The rectorfier is releitivley easy and cheap enough to replace. The stator is a little more involved. You can test both of these items before you buy anything new but I would say my guess is you burnt the stator out with all the jump starting and that has killed the spark. Bad stator equals no spark.

Yep that as well. The etc believe it or not was corroded and had moisture in the control. The rev limiter was a hot mess. Took the controls off and added a rip cord kill switch by passing both and the bike ran great.

@wanrep so that little son of a bi*** etc had me going nuts on one of my older Polaris bike projects. I could not figure it out for the life of me. It was brought to my attention by a member @davefrombc on this site that the etc could be giving me trouble. Backfiring spitting etc. anyway I removed the part all together and that bike ran like a champ. I would have been looking for quite some time before I figured that out. @davefrombc 👍
