Hello everyone-
New member to your site, but older guy and have owned lots of Yamaha quads. 3 wolvs, 2 griz 600 and a few warriors. Im a single parent so all of the quads ive had are older ones. just got back from our local boat show in louisville and a part of me wishes i could afford a newer utility but then I look at my 2nd Griz 600, with the scratches liquor dents and numerous mods and realize that this thing is paid for and while its not IRS or 60mph capable, it does everything I need and gets me home.
Just bought my third Warrior off craigslist, I think its a 2002 year. Been dissasembled for at least 5 years, due to the tranny hangin in gear. Frame and suspension is so nice I had to buy a good used engine off ebay, then rebuild the top end with some mild upgrades, Stage 1 cam and Tne ol tried and true Weisco.
Noted the posts on the oil cooler mods here, messin around on ebay and bought the whole big bear adapter assy for 26 bucks. Great friggin idea. While yamaha has some great engineering, they also drop the ball. Why the Warrior never came with an oil cooler and why my Griz 600 has a rear drum brake Ill never understand. Look forward to keepin yall posted on this build. I have some internal parts off the orig 350 as well as a 600 Griz I have been using for parts. Let me know if I can help anyone out with used stuff.
