New Owner / New Member: 2004 Trail Boss 330
I’ve already jury rigged some from rack supports and cleaned the fuel system (tank, replaced fuel lines, fuel pump and carb). It’s running well enough for yesterday’s romp on the power line stretch close to my house.
Next up:
- Front a-arm bushings
- New chain
- Oil/Filter change
- Find out why the rear brake doesn’t work
I’ve benefited from reading some posts here already and figured I’d join up and make an intro. Hopefully, I’ll be able to contribute a bit eventually.

Can you help me identify my quad model?
I have recently bought a quad project for my kids as a step up from the mini 49cc quad. Its a midi sized quad that needs some tidying and a few new parts least of all a muffler because it only has the header pipe and is frickin loud.
Trouble is I don’t know what model it is nor can I find any VIN to identify it.
All I was told was that it was a 90CC engine, it has Honda stamped on it.
What is left of the fairings has been sprayed flat black, it looks like it might have been red at some point which also makes me suspect it might be a Honda. On doing a little research it seems a bit like the TRX90 but I cannot be 100% sure. Can anyone help by looking at the pics below?
Many thanks in advance
Simon.
Hello forum members
in 2002 my dad and I bought identical rancher es models.
my dad has upgraded to a new foreman and gave me his old rancher so now I have twins.. lol
I’ll be going through the forums for some troubleshooting and maintenance on these old girls..
looking forward to the fun and learning….:smile:
Bought a 570, do okay?
4×4, 500+ C.C.
Craigslist was empty.
Then I saw an add for a 2014 Polaris 570 EFI pop up.
190 Miles 30ish hours.
$5,100
Went and checked it out.
Quad looked pristine to me.
Seller said that it had been sitting for ~18 months.
Had stabil in gas tank.
Had been taken to the desert a few times.
Tires still had the little nubs on them.
Has a rear rack extender, and rear bumper.
Took a quick spin and forked down $4,650
Seller was kind enough to throw in a cover, replacement belt, and seat cover.
So did I do okay?

Need Help Deciding on a Quad KFX400, 400EX 450R
The three ATV’s I’m looking at are:
2006 KFX 400:$1700 HMF exhaust, K&N, full skid plates, two sets of wheels and tires, rock nerf bars, tag bar, original owner with title, in great shape.
2001 Honda 400 EX: $1100 All stock wore down tires, original owner with title,
2007 Honda 450R: $1800 has exhaust, all stock, no title bill of sale, just had carb clean at dealer.
So I’m going to be riding mostly trails and doing some light cross country racing with my son. He has a 250EX that we are throwing some 400EX a arms on. I’ve been told that the 2005+ Kawis are fine, they fixed all the frame issues and everything, I know that the 400 EX are great, but I know that parts don’t interchange with the 250ex and the 450R might be too much quad for me, since I’m still kinda new to riding.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
2013 500 Starter issue
A search on this forum yeilded nothing with similar symptoms.
Maybe a rebuild kit with mew brushes? Or something more sinister?
Any help would be appreciated.
