So I just bought an 06 bruin 350 4×4 and I’m haveing rear brake problems. Put new shoes on , new parking brake cable because it was pretty wore. Pumped the pedal until it had good grab so I went for a test ride hit the brakes and they went to the floor. No brake! So I adjusted cables the hand lever and foot had good grab , took it out again and lost them again! What’s left to do, any suggestions?

new to forum with timberwolf problems

Hey yall, im new to this forum i just picked up a 92 timberwolf 250 2wd that had a bad stator so i changed it and got her running but then discovered a leak at the bottom of the jug so i put a whole new top end gasket kit on it…… But now i have new issues. I know first gear is usually a short shift but the first 3 gears it seems as soon as i shift into them its already revving high and have to shift again. It doesnt seem to level out until i hit 4th gear. It also feels like some slop in the shift and when coasting to a stop it sounds like i can hear a chain drag somewhere. How do i fix this?? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hello, I am working on a 400 big bear 2wd 99-01 I think, being new to the 4 wheeler scene, I thought I would try to get some advice from some more experienced folks like you. The problem I am having is an oil leak in the cylinder/head area. It only leaks when being driven, not idling or when revving in neutral. I have replaced the head and cylinder gaskets and it still leaks. The oil seems to be being thrown onto the upper frame and onto the front chase area. Any thoughts???

Hello from Minnesota

I have been lurking as a guest while I shopped for an ATV for my wife, learning as much from this site as possible. We ended up getting a 2014 Grizzy 450 EPS in red for her last Monday. She hasn’t ridden before , and in the little bit she has this week she has really begun to enjoy it. It is basically stock, but I added the Yamaha/ Warn winch to it. I was surprised on how natural the EPS on it felt, and I am kind of wishing I had it too!

I have a 2014 Arctic Cat 500 ( I know, not the most popular choice on a Griz forum right?) that I also just bought. I had a Blaster and a Banshee long ago, and have been without ATV’s for about 15 years. We are headed to Utah in June to go mountain biking and riding the atvs for a couple weeks, which will be a ton of fun.

Thanks in advance for everything!!

Howdy from new Grizzly 700 0wner

Hey, Brent here! I’m 53 and new owner of a 2015 Grizzly 700 special edition silver ATV. I’ve been around ATV’s for a long time with my brothers and Dad all having one for 20+ years. I finally have one I call my own. Real excited to get out on the trail. My son has Dirt Bikes and we plan to hit the trails together, good father son time.

I look forward to sharing my experiences here with you and learn from many of you what has worked well for you in your upgrades/improvements as well as your trips and pictures.

Happy to be part of a group of like minded folk.

Sorry for the basic signature. I could not find where to add all the details.

Hi to all the GC members! I decided to register because i will buy a grizzly 700 in november 2015. My dream Grizzly will have 4 mods on it for fast winter trail riding. 4 Elka shocks with relocated and re-welded mounts to make it 3 inch lower. 4 wheels spacers to make it 50 inch wide and a complete ROX steering system.
Members will help me with HP perfomance mods to the motor as i goto the treads in weeks to come. here are 3 pictures of my futur project.

Thanks.
