86 trx 350 fourtrax pricing

Hello folks. I have followed this forum for a while now and gained allot of useful information in rebuilding my four trax. I am now looking to sell it, but, im not sure where to start pricing it. It is an 86 fourtrax 4×4 trx 350. I have rebuilt the top end with new wiseco piston and rings, checked and adjusted valve tappets, checked cam wear,cleaned carb, replaced timing chain, fuel pump, oil cooler, grips, front brake master cyclinder, knuckle bearings, and both one way bearings. Front brakes have been converted to disc brakes and has over sized aftermarket tires and wheels. Seat has been recovered with camo cover and Plastics are in decent condition. Starts with one touch of the button and runs like a beast. I don;t want to undersell myself but don’t want to be ridiculous in pricing. Please help? What would be a fair price to ask? Thanks.

2016 Outlander XMR 1000 Inboard Fan

Hey guys , after seen all the different threads and talking to a few guys with XMR’s and Max’s I have decided to add a inboard cooling fan for low speed riding .
Figure none of the outlanders with inboard fans are having the heat problems we are with melting plastics and fires .
I took some measurements over the weekend and found a water/dust proof 12" electric fan to mount up where the inboard radiator would mount .
The fan just came in , I just ordered up some aluminum stock to machine up some brackets to mount the fan .
I will get some pic’s up once I get the brackets mocked up , there is a lot of room in the front plus mount holes so it should be a easy mod .

Slop at top a-arm mount

When I prepped my 850 XP last time I noticed play (1/4") at the top a-arm connection point on the rear. Is this normal? It almost like the hole in the frame that the bolt passes through is wallowed out as I don’t see how a new bushing would solve the problem. Thoughts? Long time since I posted, hello my friends!

Piston & cylinder kit for Grizzly 80

Hello all, my sons 2007 Grizzly 80 swallowed the choke valve screw and bent both valves and damaged the piston. In searching for parts I’ve noticed piston/cylinder kits online from Amazon, eBay, and a bunch of private sellers. Prices are all over the place too. Are these kits worth a darn? Does anyone have any first hand experience with them? My son doesn’t ride hard (yet) so I don’t think spending the extra money for a Wiseco piston would be money well spent. I will be going to my local Yamaha dealer for the valves and gaskets.

Carburetor for Polaris outlaw 500

Hello all,

I was wondering if it was possible to get a complete carburetor for a Polaris outlaw 500 2006 instead of having to get all the inner pieces and rebuilt it myself because that is way out of my scope of ability. If so does anybody know where about I could get one. Im located in Trenton, Ontario Canada if that helps. As well if anybody knows how I could get the part number for such a thing that would be great as well.

Cheers…

1999 Honda 400ex

Hello everybody. I an in need of some possible pointers of a problem with my 400ex. The bike has been great, yesterday I changed the spark plug. I removed all plastics and moved fuel tank over but did not disconnect. Changes plug that was really burnt, reinstalled gas tank and noticed a rubber hose off carb didn’t see where it was conncected thought it might be a breather line? started quad before assembling the rest of plastics ran ok. Replaced all plastics and took for a short ride cam back an idle was super high, so I turned quad off and restarted adjusted left hand side screw thinking it was carb screw but not sure what it is for? but then turned idle screw on carb and quad shut off and would not fire like it was to lean popping out of exhaust then smelled alot of fuel like it was flooded? This morning tried starting but would only kinda run with choke all the way on but would only stay running with me giving it throttle then shut off. I have no idea what is going on? please help.
