I should have rephrased that it's more the price than being able to find a stock carb.

When I got my quad there was no carb on it. Perhaps I got lucky. The only thing I had to do was adjust the AF mixture.. The search for a stock carb is ongoing. So far no luck. Don't know why but I don't seem to be able to find one. You would think a 2000 Yamaha bear tracker carb would be pretty common.

I put a carb from Caltric on my bear tracker and have not had any problems with it.

Welcome . Where in pa are you from ? I left pa when I retired 12 years ago. Lower bucks county for me.

Just went through this on my bear tracker. It was just what GW said, throttle cable. Easy to replace.

Welcome to a great site. I do love to tinker.

You do very good yourself on here.

I thought this whole thread was a great read and very helpful to anyone with a big bear. Many thanks.

I have been an avid motorcyclist since I was big enough to get on one. Street bikes were my forte. My doctor told me that due to an illness I had last winter that my bike riding days are done. This pretty much crushed me. A friend that was doing some work around the house( He was being paid ) heard me telling my wife how bad I was feeling. My wife said how about a trike ,would that be alright. said yeah anything I don't have to balance. My friend at this point stated he had an aty that was sitting for years and he would trade me for one of my guitars( I have 14 both electric and acoustic ) He stated it need work but I love a challenge so at the age of 78 I have my first quad.. After a carb and battery it started right up. I live on a dirt road so Told the wife to hope on and away we went. After just a short ride I am hooked.

Old thread but still a great read. Thanks to all involved.

G Great . thanks .

I need to replace the brakes on my bear tracker and this company came up after a search with a very good price but as others have stated I will order through Amazon.

Same to you my friend.

Thanks again. Amazon has the part I need. New too.

Oh boy. Many thanks. You will never guess who has the part. I'll give you three guesses.

Need some help. New to atv's. I am looking for a part that I have no idea what it is called. It is the rubber tube, hose, snorkel ? that goes from the carb to the airbox. Can anyone help me out here ? Thanks in advance.

Good morning everyone. Hope you all had a wonderful day. Mery Christmas and have a Happy and safe new year.

Thank you for the welcome. Have fun with your project.

Thank you. Happy to be here.

Thanks. Yep it looks like a wonderful site. No more motorcycles for me. Over the last winter I contracted a thing called Gillian Barre Syndrome that left me paralyzed. I am getting better every day but my balance is still off. Can't even walk right yet, but at least I am walking which is more than I could do 5 months ago so I'm a happy camper.

Hello from southeast Georgia. Was gifted a 2000 Yamaha bear tracker with out a carb or battery and looking like it had seen better days. Was told it had sat for about three years. Explained a lot. Put a carb on and a battery in and it started right up. Surprised the heck out of me Anyhow as stated in my opening I am 78 years old with a very long motorcycle backgground but brand new to atv's. Anyone else out here from Georgia? Would like to meet up with some folks for a ride or two. Looks like a great site. Thanks for having me. Don
