Whats going on. New to atvs. Have always rode my friends but it was time for my own. I purchased a 08 outlaw 525s. I love the quad. Ive noticed the rear caliper has some serious movement in it. Almost like its on a slide. I was told its normal so the caliper can move with the rear and what not. Thats totally believable i just was wondering if anyone who has this model or another atv that has a setup like this and if its all good. Thanks in advance guys

I got an old Kodiak 400 that’s sat for a long time because it wasn’t charging. I got it up and running a little while ago but I didn’t get a chance to take it for a spin until today. There’s a quite noticeable up and down motion or wobble coming from the rear end. This wasn’t there before. I have Mud-lite A/T’s for tire, they’re a softer side wall bias tire. Could they simply be out of from sitting for so long in one position? Anyone every have this happen to them?

Just introducing myself. I’m a long time rider and recently purchased a 2016 Outlander 570xt for my wife. I have thrown my leg over it a few times and love it. She is a very happy camper.

Does anybody in here have any links to a video of removing the rear (final) drive shaft on 2016 Honda Rancher. I tore the cv boot on the rear drive shaft and would like to replace it myself. Probably will happen again !

Ok I need help!
I have a 2006 660 grizzly it was back firing and bogs down when throttle is pressed and back fires. Added oil and run great for 5 minutes and is back to bogging down
Carb is clean and it’s getting a spark.
Could the programmer be making it do this?

anyone have any tips on where to start.. i was riding my four wheeler and it just shut off completely.. i thought i blew it up but has oil, is getting compression so it’s not and it’s only getting spark every once in a while. it was a brand new plug but got a new one anyways and it did the same thing. tried a new ignition coil and again nothing… it’s turning over but won’t start, and suggestions?

1.Since I’ve had the thing it has poured blue smoke that smells like gas from crankcase vent when it gets warmed up.
2.I cut down some branches and pulled them away as soon as I done that it started running like crap it would run fine cold but the hotter it got the worse it got. Crank it up and from idle hit the gas when it is cold it revs up fine, when hot if you hit the gas from idle it chokes down if your riding it it bogs as soon as you hit the next gear but let off of it it will stay running. Cleaned carbs twice and cleaned filter and checked oil

Purchased a fourtrax that was smoking. Previous owner said he sunk it in mud and water.. I took off topend and had it bored to next size. Also replaced timing chain. Clutch slipped after I got it back together. So I replaced clutch discs. This time the motor wouldn’t turn over. Like it was locked up. Took off side cover n I could turn the motor backward almost a whole turn. Then I could turn it forward to the same spot.. I removed cam and then tried. Motor turned perfect so reassembled topend. Motor seems to be fine now… just wondering if anyone has any ideas of what may have caused this… I was thinking a bent valve. But both valves are new…I’m clueless and afraid if I try to start it I may do more damage.

I’ve been working on a 2005 trx250 sportrax. It wouldn’t crank. Now it has a new battery and new starter and cranks just fine. It won’t run though unless I pour gas into the carb and then it idles smooth for about 5 seconds. I drained all of the old fuel out of the tank and carb but the carb leaks a steady stream from the overflow tube due to a bad needle valve I assume. This means I can’t leave the gas on.
I still have it all tore apart from the starter replacement and I can see that it would take very little time to replace the carb completely. Has anyone replaced their carb with a new one? I see a lot of cheap prices on the internet and I am tempted to buy one and try it since the starter I bought off Amazon went in smoothly and works perfectly. Any experience with a new carb replacement?
