So a couple rides ago my speedometer cluster went blank on me. The backlight would come on and you could faintly see the "RPMS" letter flickering. I unplugged it and let it sit for a couple days and then it started working again. Well it did it again last night, nothing seemed affected so I rode it home. The backlight will also continue to stay lit even after the key is off. Both times I’d say it was with pretty muddy riding. I know the older sportsmans had issues with the speedometer but couldn’t find anything for the newer ones. Anybody have any idea what could be going on here?

Just bought a used 2016 Grizzly 700 eps from an old guy who bought it to ride with grand kids and never really did. 200 miles and $7000. I have it all torn apart and doing a GNCC style build.
Should be cool. Stay tuned. I’m in the Nashville TN area. Anyone want to ride? Looks like a great group.

Hi everyone. I’m a newbie here,from the UK. I have recently acquired a Yamaha Moto 4 250 quad. It has been layed up for the last two years in a barn. The farmer that owned it,had it for around 15 years. I now have it and was hoping for some help.
I cant read the VIN number as its rusted over and is so faint,can only just make out two numbers.
Anyway,got it running today,after cleaning the carb,but when I turn it off,fuel flows into the air box.
I am hoping somebody can identify the carb from a picture so I can either buy a new carb or get a rebuild kit.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Doing some reasearch, my left rear wheel had a TON more camber to it than all the other wheels. Put it on a jack, and the wheel had at least a quarter inch of wobble in it, way more than the others. Pulled the wheel and the hub, and the bearings and pieces of them fell out. The out shell of the bearings are of course stuck in there, so I have them soaking in liquid wrench and I will have to try to pound them out or cut them out with a Dremel…

In the meantime, I need to get get a new one.

I went through the OEM’s around 700 miles, and I am now around 1200 miles and these are All Balls… Where we ride there is most mud and water and sand, very abrasive stuff.

Rather than order All Ballz, I remember seeing something about a front wheel bearing for a Ford Escort being a crossover part for our rear bearings? The Advance Auto down the street has these in stock, but I want to make sure that it is the right part number before I pick it up.

Anyone know if this one will work?

I bought my step daughter a 2013 Can AM DS 70, which is lightly used… I was curious to see if anyone is familiar with the head light bulb and if there is a better LED replacement bulb out there.

The bulb shows 12v 5 watt and is a single filament that has the flange or washer collar on it. The collar has a small part sticking out to keep the bulb from rotating.

Has anyone ever switched these out with a brighter LED? I’m just wanting the light to be bright and for everyone to see her for safety. Also, the DS70 doesn’t have a rear running / brake light. Has anyone put one on for additional safety?

Here’s a link to the bulb part #:LIGHT V33100DGF000 Can-Am Can-Am V33100DGF000 – Light : Fox Powersports Can-Am Partshouse

Please let me know if you know this single contact single filament bulb so I can get a LED replacement. Also, if you know of an LED replacement that’s nice and bright, please also let me know. Thanks, Joel

"Moderators" please move to an appropriate section if needed. I didn’t see a forum section for "electrical" or Lighting, nor one for smaller DS70’s & DS90’s
