2000 Honda 450 Foreman Help

Hello everyone first post and need some help. Recently put a brand new battery in my 4-wheeler and a week later it was dead. So, I’ve been told it’s the stator or regulator rectifier. The 4-wheeler will idle fine but when you give it throttle it goes dead immediately. Will a bad stator or rectifier cause this? I know you can test the stator and regulator but I’m not real electrical savvy. This 4-wheeler is stock and never had any problems. Carb and gas tank is clean with fresh fuel. Any help is appreciated.

07 Honda Foreman TRX500 FM

I ordered a new air filter. In the manual in says pour some inside the filter and work around until completely covered. The NEW filter had oil inside of it already, do I still need to pour some inside? I ordered from babbits, and its suppose to be oem. Thanks for reading…

Welding on your swing arm???

Hey all. New to this forum just to ask this question;
I snapped a bracket off my swing arm that holds the skid plate on (1987 trx250r) I was wondering if it would weaken the structural integrity of the swing arm if i welded a bolt to it and then drilled a hole in my new skid plate. Will this weld create a fracture point? I put her through a lot of abuse on the trails. Any info is appreciated, happy trails

Rod knock??? 03 grizzly 660

Hey guys, kinda being puzzled on what’s going on with my motor. The other day I was riding down the road and was cruising about 45mph then the quad power went flat, still running but no power. About 10 seconds after going flat out picked back up had plenty of power but unfortunately had a nasty tick in the motor. ? had plenty of oil, 93 octane does have high hrs about 600 and 1600 miles.

I tore the top end apart and found a blue mark on the crank and a scored piston. I just want to know if these 660 cranks from factory have the blue mark on the crank and maybe get some opinions on what might have happened.

Thanks guys.

Securing your Grizzly when you walk away?

When camping or at the trails and I leave my Grizzly, I wish I had a more secure way to leave it then just take the key. Knowing someone could roll it easily into the back of a pickup or trailer, I also know thieves can steal anything if they want it badly enough but I would like to make it a little more difficult. Is there any kind of special lock I can buy or do I just chain it to a tree?

Scrambler 1K and Deep Water

So I know the Scrambler is not a submarine so I try to avoid deeper water holes.
Having said that, in western PA and WV where we most commonly find ourselves riding there is the occasional water hole you must travel through to continue on the trails.
Has anyone been successful in properly sealing the Scrambler from taking in water?
I know the whole snorkel thing, but I am talking more along the lines of clutch housing etc…
Is it as simple as just removing the clutch housing and placing a bead of silicone on it?
Is there anything else that should be sealed?
