Over heating ???

I have a 2014 Grizzly 350 2wd and if I full throttle it for about a mile or so the oil light will come on I live in south alabama.I know it is a air cooled engine. A buddy of mine has honda 350 air cooled but his 350 doesn’t heat up like my grizzly. I want to know what can I do like adding another fan to pull more air through the cooler or add another cooler. Has anybody else had this problem ?

2005 grozzly 660 bogging out after 20mph

I recently bought this grizzly and I rode it up the street the first night fine and then yesterday I went to open up and after the second time opening up it started to boggle down and would try to stall. Even at idle it doesn’t run clean trys to stall out. I checked the spark plug but everything was okay. I’m running seafoam through it now hoping to clean out the carb but I’m wondering if I should just take it to a dealer and have a tune up done it hasn’t been riden too much by the previous owner. Any other advice?

Sunk in sand and sea

I am new here and need some advice. I have a 2007 Grizzly 700 that I used to pull my boat and trailer out of the sea. Unfortunately the Grizzly ended up sunk down in the sand and saltwater until some friends could help me get it out. I am wondering if anyone has any advice for what I should do or check that could have been damaged. I already had to replace the water pump seals as the oil seal may have got saltwater on it and it deteriorated. I am just trying to be proactive and need to know what I should look for that could have been damaged. Thank you for your help.

00 grizzly 600 no spark hot

2000 grizzly 600 .020 over new piston, jetted carb, open k&n filter, cooling fan wired manual
i’ve read through the threads and dont see the issue i have,
i first noticed last winter plowing snow and after some time it would die and not restart until cool "no spark", this last weekend we took my grizz and wife’s polaris to the hills I first took the grizz up to check out the area, come back down got the wife doubled up to show she could do it also, on the way back I turned on the fan was running hot and later the grizz died and had to tow it back would not restart till next morning, just loaded back up and used polaris all weekend.
my issue after runs at a heated temp for a short time i have no spark. could the stator be breaking down hot ? im also thinking adding a 2nd fan blowing on jug for slower trail rides, my grizz runs great other wise on short rides around our 2 acres

Wheel bearings. Kawasaki part #change!

Ok, so we’ve known for a long time that the front bearing of a Kawasaki Teryx works on all 4 corners of our Grizzly’s.

Maybe this has been mentioned recently but the common part number I see for the Kawasaki bearing is 92045-0123. This has now changed!

The new part number is 92045-0800.

Finally have a bit of play in my front bearing after 9000+ hard kms. Local Yamaha dealer wanted about $80 for OEM replacement, or a fraction of that for ALL BALLS. I cut him off as he started saying that name as I’ve never had luck with their parts.

Off to my local Kawasaki I went and they informed me of the part number change. $41.89 tax in for the part. I also checked at local bearing stores and they all knew the bearing right off hand when seeing it, but they only carried Chinese brands for around $25 plus tax because "no one ever wants to pay 80-100 dollars for the Koyo."

I figured for $10 more I would get the Kawasaki OEM over the Chinese stuff. I’m just hoping with the new Kawasaki part number that it’s still a Koyo bearing. Should be here in a few days so I will keep you posted.

Steering issues

Hi There
I was out yesterday on my 2011 Grizzly 550 eps and had a steering issue. After going through a few mud holes with the diff lock engaged the steering would lock up so hard I couldn’t turn the handlebars. I then would have to go forward/reverse a few times and keep trying to turn the bars and finally would hear a click and then could steer again but with great effort. After that I would continue down the trail and every so often the bars would jerk erratically to the left or right on their own. This bike has only 480km on it. Any help as to where to start looking for the problem would be greatly appreciated.
