Sorry, should have done more progress pics but here it is at this stage.
I have one small trailer I keep at my parents for hauling stuff around there but I wanted one for home so I can retrieve elk, moose, or haul whatever around here. I wanted a small, relatively light trailer not much wider than a quad for squeezing in between trees and narrow trails. I sort of based the size and design off my other trailer which is a modified garden tractor type trailer but I built the frame significantly stronger and the box a little bigger.
Next step is to add an aluminum sheet for the floor and redrill the tent trailer hubs (got for free) to accept Yamaha Grizzly rims (have lots laying around). This spring I’ll be adding sides but for now it’s going to be a flat deck. Deck/box is 2’x4′. Tires are STI 26×11 Mud Trax.
I’ll post pics once I get it rolling with the deck on.
just picked up a 84? TRX 200. came with spare motor/trans. front plastic head light and few other small things.
also buddy got from same guy 84ish 200s atc frame with exhaust, front forks, wheels, tires, 200 motor plastics, spare carb, and a bunch of other spare parts as well.
paid $500 for all of it
started digging into the TRX last night got plastics off carb cleaned, oil checked. got it to fire off of starting fluid.
so at this point thought I was golden, until started to work on the electrical. some one has been into this bike and crossed a few wires nothing really bad like neutral switch was grounded out. some of the wires on the motor look like they have seen better days, but still work. next went to work on the elec start. (that is how I found out about the neutral switch grounded out) hot wires the starter and it just spun. at first thought there was a problem with the starter. put one of the spare starters I got with it and did the same thing. Pulled the cover off the case and was missing the intermedint shaft front the second gear to the crank. this motor is also missing the cover for the spark pickup.
now after finding this I was a little pushed back. looking at my options.
pull motor and put the other one in? (was told it was a runner and complete. from I can see it is all there. Also was stored indoors)
rob parts off of the other motor to try to get this one to run. did get it to fire off starting fluid.
the spare motor elec looks in decent shape. all covers are present. same shaft drive H L R shifter. same exact motor. at this point thinking about motor swap and keep other for parts. was told it runs by guy I got it from.
plan with this TRX is for a kids bike. got two 10yrs that want to start riding. And this would be a good project for them and myself.
Hey guys I just picked up an 84 trx 200. Its got some issues so I thought I would join the forum to get some help and ideas on it. So the first problem is that it wont shift into neutral. When you move the shift lever it will usually pop shift into one gear, but it will only go up or down once. It wont shift into neutral. The shift lever seems to have a lot of play, I tried adjusting the free play and it did not really change the free play i it. I am planning on taking the clutch cover off to see if anything looks broken or worn. So anyone knows some things to look for and check out it would be greatly appreciated. The other issue is with the axle, I noticed a wobble when filling the rear right tire with air. I looked at the axle and it has a little gap in it, really close to where the tire mounts too. I will post some pictures to show what it looks like. I am not really sure what would cause that, maybe the nut just needs to be tightened more to close that gap. Thanks in advance for any help!

I have 2007 650 outlander that has a female thread on the bottom of the muffler. Does a bolt or plug suppose to go in the hole? Just got the wheeler with the hole open its louder then I want. What size of plug or bolt goes in it? Is this hole suppose to be open?
I was on a trip this weekend and had some strange behavior from my Rincon. I have a 2003 Rincon 650. I topped off the coolant to the high mark after warming it up, as well as checked the oil before my trip.
I was at high altitude outside Georgetown, CO, around 11k feet. I got a bit bogged down in some deep snow. I put it in 4wd, and set to manual 1st gear. With some rocking and spinning of the tires I was able to get through the snow. Shortly afterwards I noticed that "sweet" smell that antifreeze gives off.
Some coolant was leaking out, but I was unable to determine where it was coming from, and shortly after my temperature warning light came on. I shut it down for 15 minutes, and let it cool. Thankfully it was 40 degrees out. During this time period my coolant resivoir refilled to the low, but this was at cool temperatures. After I restarted it, I didn’t get any high temperature warnings, but it was definitely warm.
Is it normal to leak coolant as the engine gets hot in situations with low airflow such as being stuck? I’ve inspected my hoses and radiator, and I can’t seem to find any leaks when it’s idling. I’m concerned about being in the middle of nowhere and having a severe leak, especially this time of year.
hey i got a 2009 renegade 800r and im going with a set of 30 backs skinnies all around i do some mud and most trails but i have a spare set on 26 big horns i run when trail ridding im looking for what kinda clutching i can run so my 30 backs my gade will perform just as well as with big horns, i know the full clutch set up but thats real pricey for me
I’m winding if anyone knows where I can get arched A-arms for a gen 1 renegade? And if you could used arched A-arms with a 2" lift without having you axles bind up on you. Thank you!
