You are going to have a blast plowing snow, Ed!!! At least the first time. Hahaha!

Be glad you both got to ride. I haven't done anything except buzz around the yard this year... Got a Hatfield McCoy trail pass for my birthday and didn't even get to use it.

I like the yellow

Hmm.... that quad looks familiar, lol

Balljoints. They are part of the arm, and are a high-wear item. Replacing the whole a-arm is the only way to replace them. Best to install aftermarket arms then to spend the money on new OEM, or piss money away with used.

Yep, those are the symptoms of a lean main circuit. You are basically getting a big gulp of air when you jamb to throttle to WOT, or when you gradually reach WOT. Not enough fuel to keep the engine from falling flat on it's face.

Could be if he were stabbing the throttle quickly. He never said. So, OP, are you having this problem when you stab the throttle quickly? Or, is it when you begin to reach WOT gradually???

You never answered my questions about exhaust, air filter, and any other performance mods. Stock main jet is only a 145 (iIrc), and a 150 is only two sizes larger. I'm assuming you don't have a stock exhaust, and in that case, a 150 main is not always big enough. Every engine is different and...

I've done a bit of work on the 660 Griz. It'll definitely haul ass. While I'm not a fan of belt driven transmissions, the Yamahas seem to do very well. It has a big storage compartment under the seat. Has diff lock and selectable 4wd. Has two means of starting the engine, too. It really is...

The 350 Rancher moves out nicely. Better then the Fourtrax 300. Tops out at probably fifty. The 300 tops out at 47 mph. You can still get a front end disconnect for the older Hondas. Just type in WARN 424 in the ebay search engine. A company called Switchout now makes the WARN 424. It...

Does it have an aftermarket exhaust? Higher flowing air filter? What is the largest main jet you have tried? What notch is your jet needle clip on?

Thank you, Ed. Happy New Year!

People either move on from the Warrior, or, the "fun of the forum" has just worn off of them. Three-four years ago, this place was loaded with activity. There were so many people on here, that just replying to a thread(s) was list instant messaging. That's how busy it was, and how quickly...

The clutch lever pulls a lot more "weight" then you may thing. Ever try moving the clutch release shaft on the engine my hand? Try and you'll understand. Lever is derived from the word "leverage" for a reason, lol. I have an ASV on my ATC350X. Ya never know when you may flip a 3wheeler.

You cannot go wrong with a Honda TRX300FW Fourtrax. THE most durable 4x4 ever made. It's the perfect size, has plenty of pep, is fairly nimble, requires the bare minimum of maintenance, and you can still get aftermarket parts for it. Have two in the family. I've calculated the mileage on my...
