Got a really good deal on a 14 model at my local Yamaha dealer who I have been dealing with for many years. bought it out the door for less then a hundred over what was hanging on the handlebar tag. Got a little over 30 miles on it so far breaking it in and had to change up the air filter set up, just an overall bad design from Yamaha on this model and many others all through the years how the filter slides and wedges down in place. I found a custom aluminum intake for an import tuner that I modded down to an exact fit on my belt sander. Now it takes a Uni clamp on Pod filter, filter is slid on around an inch or so and clamped securely. I also went up one pilot jet size from a 17.5 to a 20 and also one up on the main jet from a 132.3 I believe it was to a 135 and put a free’er flowing end cap on it from my old 07 Wolverine, I also did the carb spring modd as well, really crispened up the throttle response. Runs way better then new now, lots of fun to ride and exhaust now has a nice thump to it. Here are a few pics including my custom intake.

Really nice 30WR bumper pull toy hauler. 10’6" separate garage will easily fit an XP1000. Separate bedroom has a new queen mattress. Has fold up couches/beds in the garage and the dinette makes a bed so it sleeps six. Hauler has always been stored under cover and is in great shape. No leaks or damage ever and was recently serviced (new water pump). Had new BF Goodrich commercial LT tires put on last summer before Taylor Park. Also has two spares. Asking 19k. Jeff 817 578 1553.
Questions for you gurus out there. I have a blown Exhaust gasket and am planning on replacing it this weekend. Do you remove the 4 Bolts when the engine id cold or should you warm it up before removing. I know that on the reinstall , you tighten and then warm up the engine and tighten a tad more. Just do not want to strip the aluminum on removal. Thanks in Advance for any input you all have…
I know this is a Rzr Forum but there are a lot of guys that are very knowledgeable on this forum board. I’m thinking about buying a 2nd buggy WildCat Trail XT. You can pick them up 2014 model brand new for 9 grand. I wanted to know if you guys have any buddies that may ride the above model and if so please give me your thoughts.
ok, i have a winch and plow setup on my 500ho, filling the front diff is a real pain. i have to take off the plow mount and unbolt the winch to get to the fill plug. well today i pulled the diff to replace the seals and saw that the vent on the top has a clear tube going up under the pod light. now i fill it with the same size hose and use a brake bleeder to pump it in. why not just use the vent tube. its ease to get to, i know how much to put in it. any thoughts on why not to use it?

Hi, new to the forum, bought an older Honda quad last fall, think its a TRX300 and I don’t know the year. Going to be doing some maintenance work shortly and I was able to download a manual here, thanks so much! Have a tick in the top end, hoping a valve adjustment will take care of it. Found some other useful info as well. Thanks again.
So after a long winter I finally go grab my bike out of storage and start going through it. When I jacked it up I noticed the swing arm sagged down a bit. I moved back tires around and had tons of play up where it was bolted. So figured it just needed some bushings etc I went forth and removed clutches and back plate. Wouldn’t you know it, the bolt fell right out. The previous owner welded all around where the hole used to be.. What can I do here? Weld washers to both sideds to strengthen it? Or.. Anyone ever come across similar problem
