True story!

Ouch! That sucks brother. What's your next move? Try to find a case?

@Admin thanks! @MarkinAR i have a new oem harness on the atv and all wiring is solid from top to bottom. I have not found a rev limiter on this machine so far but definitely a good guess. Heres where I'm at; I checked the flywheel and all magnets are solidly in place and have plenty of magnetic power. I have seen where magnets will slide along the inside of the flywheel due to the epoxy holding them in place failing. No such luck, i did however find a spliced wire coming off the stator coil so I'm not taking a chance since i have it all apart im going to throw a new stator and pick up coil in. After that the only thing left is the cdi! I put another one in (aftermarket) but it ran the same. This ones a toughy !!! Going to get it straight though.

Need the video converted. Maybe @Ajmboy or @Admin can help me out.

Ok so update, finally got a little time to play in the shop. Swapped out the regulator and guess what?????? NO CHANGE! FML.... Decided to pull the side cover off and pull the stator and flywheel off. Stay tuned....... IMG_3837.MOV

Yep i see that. We just seen this before but i would doubt that both keyways sheared of. You have the cams in the proper place, ex and int? If you swap them the lobe position should change ?

You could have just gotten a bad run of tires off the line. It happens but the question is how many tires were made before they picked up on a production problem? Have you reached out to the vendor or checked any complaint reviews etc? I feel that one item you should never try to go cheap on (especially street bikes) are the tires. Its what the bike rides on and your life depends on when it comes to traction and stability.

Have you reviewed your work and back tracked to see that your at TDC on a compression stroke and the cams arent just 180 degrees out ?

@bren7176 Thats good news on the cylinder. Make sure you get quality gaskets. It will come back to bite you in the as* of you dont. @Jennifer Schuler we all have our one item that we have bad luck with! Mine is usually pocking up atvs that always wind up needing a stator coil.

Agreed, not bad at all. @MarkinAR smacks it right on the head every time!!! Its not as bad as it seems. If the rings aren't flying up that high then my guess is the rings will settle in fine and be good.

@Hondasher that's a great approach. Definitely keep us posted on the fixes as they happen or if you get stuck.

I looked at the manual and it does not show anything about changing it over. Have you tried to call a dealer and ask ?

Wow its in pretty good shape for a 94. That was a simple atv. Just look under the front end, theres nothing to it. Simple and effective design. Same thing goes for the engine. If your mechanically inclined you should be able to pull the motor and split it open. BUT before all that have you drained the oil and looked for pieces of gear that may have broke off In the drain pan? How does the shifter feel when you shift up? Do some simple checking first before anything crazy and make sure of what's going on. But this all depends on how handy you are.

I would guess regular loosen due to the fact that its not a rotation thing like a shaft. Its more of a motioning up and down in each direction. Try it the right way just go slowly.

Very nice. Some wide open areas !!

Great news brother. Get that puppy up and running and lets see some pics !

Great video @Gunny and great service! Keep em coming! 🇺🇸

Nice work! Keep us posted brother.

That thing does look crushed. Was that o ring part of the same gasket kit?

Hey @Michael France welcome to Quadcrazy. Agreed with @MarkinAR on all points. In addition take a look at the neutral/reverse relay as well. It should have two black wires going into it as well as two others. The two black complete the start circuit. Jump the two black wires and see if you get dash lights, start button etc. Just curious to see if that works and you can rule out that circuit as a problem.

Welcome to Quadcrazy! Post your problem as a new topic and we can help.

Welcome to Quadcrazy! Nice machine.

Are you sure about that code number ?

4x4s in general have the same gear ratio front and back unless specifically designed otherwise. All four wheels have to rotate at the same time with cars and trucks as well. So unless there are specific builds then yes same size tires are required.
