450s split cases, putting back together

I am putting the engine back together after a crank replacement on a 2004 450s.

When I put the cases back together, I verified that nothing in the transmission was bound up. I could turn the main shaft easily by hand and verified that the drive shaft was turning. I did not have to force the case together or anything like that.

The clutches have not been installed.

The manual said to put the transmission in neutral before putting on the shifter linkage. I turned the star wheel to what looks to be neutral but now the main shaft and drive shaft are hard to turn by hand. I am wondering if this is just because I am not quite in neutral or sort of between gears.

Anyone experience similar issues?

Yamaha Windhsield

Hey all,

I have a 2014 Grizzly 700 Limited that came with a factory Yamaha windshield. Although I’ve had the ATV for awhile, I’ve only just recently installed the windshield for some fall/winter riding. I was kinda disappointed to find that the windshield blocked very little wind to my face but was a big improvement to the lower body and hands.

Does anyone know if I can purchase a taller windshield (just the transparent shield itself) to be used with the existing fairing?

See pic below for the model I’m referring to:

02 Snorkel Questions

I big bored my 02 Grizz to a 686 and trying to snorkel at same time. Can get it to run but the exhaust turns cherry red after a few minutes. I have been told its running too lean. Can anyone tell me what jets in the carb to use in both the primary and secondary? #strugglingtorun

1985 Honda Four Trax aftermarket carb?!?!

So I picked up a Fourtrax 250 utility quad for free that was not running. I’m pretty sure it’s a 1985 model.

Anyways, was cleaning the carb bowl and wasn’t paying attention and snapped the brass tube off. Went to look and ebay and cant find a replacement, but there are these after market carbs for $60 OEM plug and play as they say.

Anyone have any experience with these? Are they legit?

Otherwise How do I fix the brass tube I snapped off? It didn’t actually snap all the way off it is hanging on by a thread, almost like a loose tooth. Will fiberglass resin disintegrate with gas? That was my thought to glue it back in…

Or disregard the overflow all together? Anyone do this?

Help 2000 Sportsman 500 HO

I just bought my first ever ATV. Bought a 2000 Sportsman 500 for $400 and it needs a little TLC. I have replaced the key switch and repaired the recoil. Installed a new gel battery since the old battery would not hold a charge. When I turn the key to the "ON" position the green light comes and the cooling fan starts running. I have read on here that is not correct. Also when I push up on the start button the fan goes off and the green light goes out. The starter does not engage either. Does anyone have any idea where I need to start looking for my problems?

Any help for an old fart like me?
