    Question for you guys that have worked on a Kodiak, I was wondering since it has a push button 2x4 to 4x4 does it have a slipping front differential or is it a locking front differential. If it's a slipping diff, has anyone tried to make it power both front tires at the same time? Thanks

    Do you have the fuel gauge that mounts to the gas tank? What about the plastic fuel petcock? Thanks

    My best guess is that you have a 2wd 250 bear tracker, if you look at the front fender for a big bear and a bear tracker they are different. The big bear has 4 vent pockets (2 on each side) right behind the headlights, the bear tracker doesn't have these vents. I believe that the C at the end of the part number on partszilla is for Canada (Km instead of MPH on the speedometer, but I could be wrong.

    With the shifter on the top plastic like that, the design of the front rack and the speedometer pod layout, I would say it's around an '87.

    Well I can add another wheeler to the list. I just picked up a 2000 yamaha kodiak 400 4x4.

    I didn't update the title, I was looking at a 1995 big bear 350 or a 1987 honda 350D. But now I found a 2000 yamaha Kodiak 400. For a little more than the big bear. So I might go that route instead.

    I know on mine it was from pulling things that were way to heavy for it. It was a farm ATV for a long time before I got it.

    Great question, I'm not sure I never had to mess with the idle adjustment on mine. Hope someone else can chime in that has a service manual or has done it before.

    I use partszilla for part numbers and sometimes the parts themselves, but usually ebay is the cheapest.

    Just ask if you need any other help, when I had mine I ended up replacing the Tbap wire harness, the hall effect speed sensor, cleaning the fuel sender unit, CV axles handle bars and a couple of other items. One trick I did learn if you're replacing axles is to use a wood chisel to get between the axle hub and the differential housing it will pop the axle right out. Those axles have a snap ring you need to collapse in order to remove them, the wood chisel trick saved me a ton of time.

    Barrysquad, not sure if you fixed your problem, but check out this topic, maybe this is the problem? 98 Yamaha Warrior 350 Bogs down Mid RPM

    How much free play will this adjustment take out?

    I would get a carb rebuild kit first, before replacing it, you could also look at the classifieds on Craigslist or Facebook I know there are guys in my area that buy broken ATv's and strip them to sell the parts. You might be able to find a good carb, and the front differential for cheap. One of my firends growing up had a '87 big bear 350 and it was a good machine, you really can't go wrong with an older Honda or Yamaha. I'm looking to pick up a '95 big bear 350 with a plow for around $1300, I would say you got a great deal if the plastics aren't broke apart. Can't help with the manuals, sorry.

    I had the splines go out on my 450S, I ended up replacing the main drive shaft and the main drive gear. I could tell it was out by jacking up the back end then putting it in 1st gear and rotating the rear tires, I could spin them with out too much effort. It wasn't too bad of a repair job.

    It sounds like you fixed it awesome. One thing to keep an eye on is if your right leg is getting really warm from the exhaust, the heat wrap really makes a huge difference. Before I put it on if I was wearing shorts my leg would get red, after you couldn't feel any heat. It's awesome stuff and really quite cheap.

    I had a 2006 sportsman 700 EFI, I didn't have any problems with the EFI but I did have problems with the Tbap sensor wires breaking. Not a big deal to replace but annoying since it goes into limp mode and runs like crap. Also the hall effect speed sensor goes out often in them, there is a replacement that uses larger gauge wires to help prevent breaking. If you have any other questions, I replaced a bunch of things on mine when I had it since it was rolled over when I bought it.

    I know when I had my 2005 700 EFI, if it was using it for a long time in low gear pulling a yard drag it would over heat there was not enough air flow through the radiator to effectively cool it down . I found on mine that the engine gets so hot that it would vapor lock the gas tank. You could hear the gas boiling. If you let it cool down it would run great again, I know a lot of guys were switching to a carisle fuel pump to and had a lot of success with that. The exhaust pipe gets very hot also so i ended up wrapping it in header heat wrap all the way from the exhaust manifold to the tail pipe.

    Hey guys and gals new member here from MN. I have owned and worked on a few ATV's so I'll try to contribute where I can. Here's a list of ATV's I've had 199?'s Honda 300 fourtrax 4x4 1998 Honda 450S foreman 4x4 2005 Polaris 700 EFI 4x4 1996 Polaris trailboss 250 2x4 2001 Honda Recon 250 2x4

    I'm looking at both of these ATV's they are both in good condition. I'll mainly be using them to pull around my utility trailer around my yard, as well as moving my boat in and out of my storage shed. With both in the same condition what would make you buy one over the other? Thanks
