I am looking for a set of handle bar mounted gun racks for my Honda Fourtrax 300 like the set in the below video. I have searched ebay and other places without much luck. I had a set on the fourtrax I had in my youth and would like another set for the one I am restoring now. please check out the youtube video below to see the racks. They are at the beginning.
To make a long story short , I went camping this week with the new rubicon and once I got it off the trailer it died and would only restart if I started it as soon as I turned the key but would die within 5 seconds due to loosing spark. If I waited for the check engine light to go off before starting like your supposed to it wouldn’t start at all. So here is the good info. I took it to the dealer , they found a bad bank angle sensor after diagnosis and honda tech line help. This sensor is basically a tip or roll over sensor. Tech line I guess said they have seen some go bad and requested the serial number off the old sensor and off the oxygen sensor, so I can only assume they are having issues with both sensors. They did say that if I encounter this again that I can unplug the bank angle sensor while the machine is running and it will not die. So if you run into this problem the sensor is located on the left side of the steering shaft just below the bars and under the top plastics, it’s held on with 2 bolts and has a black connector. The advisor and I did some research and found that injected foremans back to 2012 and 420 injected ranchers use the same sensor so the unplugging trick should work on those machines as well.
Took my 16 foot fishing rig up to my buddy’s place for May long weekend, there aren’t any good spots near by that you can launch with a truck so we used my Foreman 400… Actually handled it pretty well.
Ended up having a hard time pulling it out in the sand so we hooked the 500 up to the 400 and pulled it out in tandem!
Finally got around to editing the video of the whole charade…. Feel it may be entertaining and informative, take a look…
Hi! I am new to the forum but I am hoping to find some helpful information!
I have a fourtrax that I was given. It originally had no spark. I replaced the CDI and the Fuel Pump Relay. I expected it to work and it did not. I do not know what to do at this point. But I do have some leads!
I checked the pulse coil that sends a signal to the CDI. The resistance was .29kohms, so 290ohm. I was told it should be 300 ohms about, so thats good.
I know of an excitation coil, but I cant find it. I do not know how to test it but according to the wiring diagram it could be the problem. Also, could somebody tell me what that does?
Could somebody give me some pointers in the right direction? I know the coil is not getting voltage, and I know that the new parts are good. Any help?
So I am looking for some different brush guards in front of the axles on my fourtrax. It has the stock ones on there right now and I was thinking of getting diamond plated maybe? Does anyone know a good place/website to get them?
Got my fourtrax out yesterday after sitting for 3 weeks. Was running a little rough when I loaded it, but only had it on for 30 seconds and didn’t let it warm up. Shortly into the ride, started sputtering at higher rpms. Kept them low and kept moving. Soon started sputtering at all rpms. Then wouldn’t even move with a person on it. Will not idle. Walking beside it, at full throttle in 1st gear, it will crawl. Haven’t cleaned the carb in a year, so that will probably be my first try. Any other ideas?

Got a 92 fortrax 300. Won’t run past half throttle idles ok but not good. Backfires and black smoke at wot
What I have checked. Oil and neutral light work. Tried new coil and plug. Carb kit but was spotless when i took it apart. New cdi. Stator ohm good charging 13.7vdc running. New battery, pulse coil didn’t pass ohm test replaced it. Checked valves were tight but the timing chain is toast but didn’t jump time. Compression is 150 psi cold. It has a decent spark when cranking it over but I’m lost I cannot get it figured out!
I have 1989 300 and the rear end is catching when shifting in first and hiting the gas it pops and sometimes it won’t go at all is it the bearings r the gears in the diff r both any help plz thanks
