Lighting Mods: Post your pics or builds!

I’m looking into adding some lighting to the front and possibly rear of my 300FW. What ideas can you all toss my way? Post your pics too so we can all see!

Basically I’m looking at adding some basic LED lights that you typically find at Walmart. I assume I can simple wire them directly to the batter with a switch and a fuse no problem?

Carburetor hose.

I took apart the carb on my 96 FourTrax to clean it up after is set for a while, and when I was done, I noticed a hose coming out of the bottom, near the primer pump. I believe it to be the overflow line, but am not sure. I primed the carb before starting and gas came pouring out of the hose. Is it supposed to just dangle there or does it hook up to something somewhere?

I hate to be stupid, but it bothers me to have it just hanging there.

Thanks

Help me.. 91 trx300 4×4

Oky doke,

Have a 91 Trx 300 4×4 not starting with the button.. The start solenoid has 2 posts, one to the battery positive and one to the starter. The solenoid has a two wire pigtail going to the main wiring harness. One yellow with red stripe and one teal with red stripe.
There is 12v at the battery post, and there is 12v at thestart button on the handlebar, when I hit the start button there is 12v at both wires in the pigtail, but nothing at the starter post of the solenoid so no starty for me.. switched solenoids 3 times.. then I thought wheres my ground??

Are both wires in the pigtail supposed to have power or is one a ground? and if so maybe do you know which?

Any help would be awesome…

Strange Honda Recon Carb Pilot Screw

How would i go about adjusting the carb on this honda recon? See the attached picture of the pilot screw. The scew is round and has no splines on the outside. It is completely recessed in the passage.

Do I need to look into a dremel or ez out to remove the screw should I need to adjust the carb?
