2009 Grizzly 700 Starter Noise

I have developed a Whirrrr or buzzzzz or bizzzzzzz kind of noise in my starter. I have about 3000 miles on my machine.

It happens mainly just after the starter button is released. the starting action of the starter seems fine and the bike runs normal.

occasionally its makes this buzzing whirring noise as it is starting.

Any ideas what I could be facing?

Thanks a million

kawell led lighting on amazon – STAY AWAY

well, it was my sister’s bday recently… picked her up a pair of KAWELL led cubes….

and while i was at it, i bought a single row version thinking it would work good for a low profile light for my dad’s beartracker…

STAY AWAY FROM THIS BRAND.

they claim the same wattage and similar lumens to some of the proven names… totron… rigid etc… they arent. they arent even as bright as the stock grizzly lights. with just the kawell on, my stock grizzly lights create a shadow in front of her quad with them on.

im hoping to get some sort of a refund.

i feel bad for people who buy these lights thinking that is what led lights have to offer. if they would have spent 2x as much they would have gotten a 10x brighter light.

ive seen others talk highly of their amazon leds. im guessing i just got a particular cheap knock off.

98 kodiak 400 spark

98 kodiak 400 no spark. Anyone have a pic of the pigtail wire ends that go into the cdi box. Worling on one and soneone has pulled the wires out of the plug ends. And i dont know if there right. Stator is new but dont know if its actually good. It doesnt test good on ohms check. Anyone know the actual voltage output for the pickup and exciter coils as well.

Fan switch mod

OK, officially need help. Want to wire aux fan switch for my 2011 Grizzly 700 FI. Want to have ability to switch fan on when slow or waiting in line, but have temp sensor still function normally.

Did this on my 2007 YFZ450 and it was easy, splice two temp sensor wires to a switch, however the Grizzly temp sensor apparently is on the engine, and only activates the idiot light.

Need instruction, and location/color of said wires on bike to tap. Please only post if you have done this and it works, as I cant be down a work machine while I repair fire damage…

Im not an idiot, can solder, splice, etc., just confused on how this system operates, and wire diagram is about to have me open that new bottle of Jack..

Cheers mates !

Cubes vs Bar

I am soon purchasing some LED lighting for my Grizzly. I was dead set on getting a Light Bar, but now I am wondering if I should consider getting 2 (or more) cubes instead.

So that is the question. What is your preference? I would really like answers from people who have (or had) both.

1998 grizzly factory wiring

Hi,, I bought a used Grizzly and in the process of restoring, see 2 wires coming off a wiring harness that are black and pink. its a short pigtail with male and female bullet type connectors and is located at the right front shock. does anybody have a clue to what these may have been connected to??? I have seen a wiring diagram but could not locate a pink wire.
