pilot screw install

This is why it’s important to install the screw with carb on it’s side or standing up. He couldn’t get it to run right and gave up, quad sat for a long time because of a simple mistake.

Lower ball joints assembly

Can anyone explain how to remove and
Assemble my lower front ball joints on a
Scrambler 500? And i have little to no
Mechanical skills.. Would I be able to figure
This thing out on my own or should I look
Into a person with mechanical experience
to do the job? Thanks

Hi all I am new to form,new to atv world never even road one.I have been on this earth for approx 60 years and time to ride one.I have good mechanical skills,but no electronics experiance,I have been checking Honda repair manuals and it seems all trouble shooting is electrical this is a problem for me. I have acquired a 2007 Honda Rancher eps two wheel drive ,I was told it ran ok but may have trans problems,it has sat out in the rain and snow and has not been started for over a year.I have cleaned,fuel tank,fuel strainer and valve and filled with fresh fuel it took me two days to get the engine to turn over I figured out that you have to hold the brake handle in to turn the motor over,I told you I was new.It turns over great and will run if I squirt gas in the throdle body but will not run on its own.When I turn the key on I can hear the fuel pump run for a second to build fuel pressure but won’t start ,is there something I am missing,need to push on some other brake or something? Please help PS the model number is TRX420TE7

How often do you do something stupid on your bike?

Took a turn to fast on my recon and over she went. I like to fishtail, bald rear tires, did about a 180, seat was to slick to keep lean into the curve. I was able to hop off as she tipped, engine kept running, pushed it back over and away we went (love Hondas). Only damage was to the rider…nothing a few Advil won’t fix….not 18 anymore.

Wanted to try the poll option, thought this a good one to start with. So far I am about every third ride guilty of doing something I shouldn’t have….
