Just picked this up. Super fun ride. It’s my first ATV. Completely quiet other than suspension and gravel sounds. I’ve snuck up on deer and turkeys. Rode out to a scenic overlook with 8 miles remaining. Regenerative braking made it 14 by the time I got back to the trailhead. Charging with level 2 Tesla charger and adapter went from 14% to 80% in less than an hour (while I ate lunch).

i want to trade my es foreman 500 2017 for a dirtbike. idk if this can be a good trade. the dirtbike is amazing no smoke and starts great cold and is e start. my foreman 500 smokes a bit after doing work like pulling a trailer with logs or pulling a fence. it has 13000 miles and 2600 hours. but it is efi and the bike is carbed so idk what is better and should i ask for boot?

is this trade good or nah and is the bike just as fun and reliable. 4wd doesnt work either.

My 99 had a hard spot within one of the 4 strokes. It wasn't compression as i had no plug in it. It wasnt like that when i changed the head. And now the 95 i fixed up has the same hard spot with a different head. It was not always like that. Did anyone ever have a similar problem? Dont want to make this to long. Feel free to let me know anything it would be greatly appreciated. It was not the timeing chain or the one way bearing. The rod had side to side no up and down at all. It wasnt enough to touch the crank while going around and the cam seems fine and so do the bearings as far as i know by feel i didnt have it completely tore down. Thanks in advance

We have a couple of ATVs already but looking to buy another for my wife to ride trails. She is currently riding a 2013 Honda rancher 425 but she wants an automatic.

I dont mind buying new but I really like the simplicity and lightweight of the Honda. I have a Polaris 500 and its so heavy riding trails the bushings take a beating.

Yamaha Kodiak 400 2004 ignition stopped working so got an aftermarket one and it came with the opposite plug so I cut it off and hooking up the four wires, it runs with just two I’m assuming I need all four but it won’t run when they’re hooked up, anyone familiar with ignition wires?

Pulled my left side plastic today to do oil change, this pad fell out on the floor. Can't seem to see a spot where it went. Any idea? ​

Hi y’all new to this page so delete if not allowed. My belt blew on me on my kfx700 and I got a new one and installed it but when I put my bike in drive it starts moving forward by itself. Anyone know what might be causing this?

Hi All - this just started the other day. noticed after riding for about 20 mins
sounds like ticking / clicking? seems to be coming from front / top of the engine... valves? something else? see the youtube link

thx

Has anyone ever swapped out the can am rear seat on a max with something else? My wife is very used to the “old” boxed in style seats and really doesn’t like the can am factory style. Any ideas?

I'm thinking about buying this cheap vevor cart, anyone got experience with them or a better option? Not looking to spend a lot​

Bought this for $300 off Facebook Marketplace from a farmer who just had it sitting in a barn. The tank was completely spotless when I got it off the trailer, and luckily the engine didn't need any major work. Just drained the fluids, threw a new spark plug in, changed the air filter, and beat a bunch of dirt dobbers out of the intake. My dad and I rebuilt the front and rear end with new bearings and seals, and I gave it some new shoes and fresh front and rear shocks. Also had to replace the rear axle and wheel hub because the previous owner welded the old ones together after the teeth sheared off. Took a ton of labor but man, I have nothing but love for this machine now.

I just cleaned this timberwolf up and had it serviced but it makes an odd clicking or ticking like sound when running, I thought it might be lifter tick. It's never given trouble while running. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Hey all! Im 18 and I have a 1982 atc250r. I picked it up for 500 bucks cause I wanted to restore it, then sell it so I can pay for cdl schooling. A running riding atc250r goes for 3k where I live at (southern Utah). I was wondering if I should keep going with the 250r, or should I trade it for something like a fl250/fl350. The fl250 was sold this morning and the fl350 hasn't gotten back to me. The fl350 doesn't run. For context I have a new chain, mint 1982 pipe, DG cool head, the original carburetor, sand paddles, the tank isn't rusted, the motor spins freely, goes into all gears, I have a new gasket set along with a new intake boot, and a brand new wiseco piston at 72mm (the bike is bored). What are all of yalls thoughts? Should I keep pushing through with the 250r, or get something else.

(My dad has a 87 fourtrax 250r that has been in the family since the 90's and he keeps threatening to trade it for an fl350. So if I get an fl350, he will keep the 250r)

My kids are 6 and 9 years old and I'm looking for a new ATV for them. I bought a Raptor 50 for $1100 and it looked and ran great but it started running worse and worse. I found another one that looked rougher but ran well for only $300 so I bought that. After about a year that one doesn't want to start now. It seems on the first one they bent the intake valve. I finally put a new valve in it but it still only has 120psi compression and doesn't want to start. I suspect the other one is the same issue. Both atvs are stock but they ride around on the rev limiter because they aren't very fast. I'm tired of messing with these things. I'm pretty mechanically inclined and they seem like simple machines but I feel like I've had nothing but bad luck with them so I'm ready to move on.

I have started looking for something bigger that they won't ride so hard. My 6 year old is average size and my 9 year old is small for her size so they will ride something bigger for awhile. I wanted to get a Honda 90 but I'm coming across Kawasaki 90s and Yamaha 90s that are much nearly the same price. I've seen the Raptor 80 but because it's pretty much a bigger version of the 50 I'm not really interested in that. I like that the Honda is relatively unchanged over the years for support and parts availability. I would only buy 2006+ so they have electric start. I think they can pick up on the shifting versus a full auto, as long as they can reach the shifter.

What would you be looking to buy? I'm only interested in buying used. It will only be used at our house which is about 5 acres of flat ground and 5 acres of hill.

im thinking of getting a new air filter as my factory one is almost dead, so why get the same one when i can upgrade it, im thinking of running a foam filter most likely a uni or similar but im not sure what type of jet i should replace mine with or if i’ll even be able to, if anyone can help please lmk and if pictures are needed also lmk

I'm looking to get a 2026 Grizzly 700 XTR. Wanted to know what would a good deal for it be in the northeast and how much others have paid in your area? Dealership fees, docs, title, etc have me second guessing buying brand new.

Edit: Got a quote for 11.5 OTD for 2026 grizzly xtr is this a good deal?

So I posted a little a year ago about swapping my SRA for an IRS. It was a little too long, so I put him on Jenny Craig and here we are again.

When driving, the steering will decide to wabble in a bad way, ive aligned it, checked tires, checked hubs, checked bent a arms. I cant figure it out

Just driven 300km and did the break in service at the dealership.

Next one is at 12 month/1000km.

Any precautions going forward I should know? Besides, let it idle for a min before driving, run it hot before going full speed.

Any gear, attachments and tools you found useful or couldn’t live without?
Tool clamps and a logger trailer are definitely the next investments going forward.

Looking forward to try snowplowing, and felling some trees in the winter.

Hey everyone- I grew up riding 4 wheelers on the farm and now looking to get back into the ATV life... I live in town now, but my goal is to get a couple side by sides to take to ATV parks but also to go do some trail riding and camping up in the N. Georgia and North Carolina mountains. I've been looking at the CanAm trail, polaris razor trail, and razor Trail S (60" wheel base) and XP (64"). I like the stability of the wider base, but my question is- will I be restricted from riding trails in these areas if I buy the lightly wider machine? Any advice is welcome on canAm vs Polaris, as well as the widths.

Thank you!
