01 Foreman 450es Clutch issue

Hey all. I could use some info to solve my problem.After adjusting valves to specs, I sprayed PB spray on clutch adjuster and came back to loosen. It must have not been broken free and I turned the nut about four turns to loosen before finding that it was not moving separately.After freeing and making adjustment, the machine will not engage.Did my blunder cause any damage to the clutch?I turned the screw until meeting resistance and did the 1/4 turn and still not engaging.

On the hunt for an ATV for my wife.

Hey all,

Wife’s wanting an ATV for general tooling around the yard to start with, who knows where it’ll grow from there. Sport quad, not utility quad. Everyone points to Honda as being the way to go, so I’m going to be in the market for a sub-$1000 ATV to get her rolling around on. I’ve been on the local CL, they are out there. I need to look up more model-specific information first to find out what’s good/bad, what to buy, what to stay away from, and what good deals are.

Going to be looking for something in the 200-300cc range.

Any "hierarchy" chart of the years/models out there?

Hello!!

Hi everybody. New guy here. saw some good info so I thought I’d join. I have a 1986 250r on a 1997 racing frame that has been set up for motocross. I love the quad and recently got my kids into racing also. Got my daughter a 2004 trx90 we are just now starting to build and a 2003 xr50 for my son.

Hello from Toronto

Hello everyone,

I’m a new owner of a used 1993 Honda BigRed 300 4×4 (TRX300). It came with a cottage we recently bought and it needs some tuning to keep it running.

I currently have the tank filled with some Rescue Metal to neutralize some rust in the tank. The fuel filter in the tank looks intact but going to look into getting a extra inline fuel filter for extra filtration.

My next step is to start tuning the atv without having to take apart the carb as it starts, idles then dies out when I give it some throttle.

It’ll be my project and I just downloaded the service/repair manual from this site.

Hope to chat with you all in the near future.

Cheers.

honda fourtrax 300 starter issue

HI, i’m a newbey to this, i’m from Alberta Canada, I have read a lot of these forums for a lot of great information, I do have a problem now that I’m hoping someone has some ideas. Here’s the scoop, I have my sons 94 Honda 300 4×4, I have had it for about 5 years, I have re done a lot of it so far, I have recently replaced the cam shaft chain and tensioner. got it all back together and all it does is spins the starter. I did remove the starter, changed the brushes, battery is all charged, it is spins all the reduction gears. I have just put on a new centrifugal clutch, and one way bearing, as I thought that was the issue,. so could I be looking now at the starter one way clutch? I thought this was odd that it started to do this as it was working perfect before I changed out the chain, any help would be appreciated, need to get this going, my son has a bog to get to…..cheers
