2003 Traxter Shift problem

I am helping a friend work on his Traxter he bought at an auction
Its runs and drives but will not shift out of 2nd gear
I have read some of the forum posts saying there is a tool for emergency shifting, what does the tool look like and how is this done?

Spark Plugs for 2000 Traxter 500

When I went to change the plugs in the Traxter 500 I inherited from my father in law, it had two different spark plugs – a NGK DR8EA and a NGK DR7EA.

The parts store sold me 2 DR8EAs – Is it better to run the two different types of plugs?
Thank you for any advice you can give.

2000 TRAXTER 500 cooling questions

Hey guys, I just picked up a Traxter 500 the other day in need of some TLC. Got the axle situation figured out. Got it shifting and driving. Now I was told that the fan dosent turn on. I am not sure if it is an issue or not. I know my temp light is on all the time at idle. From start to shut off. As soon as I give it any gas. the light disappears. Any help is great!

power loss, trouble shooting

Had family over this weekend, and really worked my 02 Quest 650 hard giving rides. I also think that they may have gone for a long ride in low drive. They parked it only when they thought it ran out of gas. But I filled it up and took it for a spin and it could barley get me up a small hill. I tried both high and low gears and they react the same.

Any trouble-shooting ideas? I am going to powerwash it tomorrow in-case it is something as simple as stuck mud stuck somewhere.
