  1. the 400ex is a good bike for sure.
  2. your oil leak may be from the O ring of the valve cover, if the shop adjusted your valves.

  5. check the wire leading to the neutral safety switch, mine was broken on my yamaha big bear, and as soon as i fixed it the light was back and it turned over ...
  6. probably a dirty carb, you can try spraying some carb clean into it, but likely will have to take it off and clean it
  7. maybe the neutral safety switch got buggered up some how...
  8. sorry i misread ... check the picture, #1 are the ball joints. they are probably worn out ...
  9. the 4 wheel nuts. put the drum on and maybe get some washers to put on the lugs and tighten them down, if it will tighten down. you'll be able to see right away if its the wrong drums. if you have the front end lifted, try and wiggle the wheel and maybe all the free play might be from tie rods that are bad, or something in the front end steering ...
  10. with the wheels off, put some spacers on the lugs and tighten the wheel nuts up. then see if the drum goes tight and still wobbles ...
  11. marioweldinginc might know about new york events, swampcat07 for pennsylvania. i'm too far away from civalization to know what's going on in the real world ...
  12. wlelcome to quad crazy. there are alot of guys here from those areas that will surely fill you in on some spots to ride !!
  13. not so much old age, just wiser maybe
  14. it looks like if you can identify the wires going into the realy for reverse by the gray/yellow, black/red, green/blue and black. its hard to see but i think thats the color wires ...
  15. i had to change my oil once when i went in a little over my seat, not intentionally mind you, it just dropped off really quick. once i got the bike out, i got it standing on the back wheels and pulled the spark plug and turned it over quite a few times. after i was convinced there was no water in the cylinder or exhaust pipe, i set it back down and started it up for a minute. i shut it down and then checked the oil which was milky. i got a tow back and drained the oil. in between oil changes, (i think i changed it 4 times) i would start the bike up and let it idle for a minute. is that a good idea to do with water in the block to get the good oil distributed?
  16. i know, and mine is so heavy, but if it gets the traction, it's all good
  17. We need a wheelie contest next !!
