I hate :evil: the dealer in Concord (where I bought my quad along with a bunch of other stuff). I have now gone to the Dixon dealer (way hot chick behind the cou...

Update!

Well I was wrong! The throtle cable was the problem. It looks like one of the kids has messed with the freeplay adjustment on the cable. I know it wasnt like this when I shut it off a few weeks ago. But it is running a little on the rich side. How should I go about leaning it out a little bit? I am ...

So it sounds like I will have to remove the carb from the bike to be able to drill it. I will check out the throtle cable but I doubt that changed.

Carb. adjustments on Sportsman 700? Attn CHADD!!

I have a 2002 Sportsman 700 with ~1900mi in it. All I have done is regular oil changes and greaseing. On the last trip I noticed it would hesitate on full throttle hill climbs. So I decided it was time for a tune up to see of that would help. I put in a new air filter, fule filter, cleaned the breat...

It only takes one asshole on a quad and instantly we are all assholes regaurdless of how 99% of us act. I do my best to respect the right of way of everyone else just so as to not piss anyone off. BC This is how I felt, I had no intention of rideing on PCT that day. And the last thing I want to do ...

Absolutely!!! Look at the bluryness around the edges of the bike. It is a chop but it was obviously done to show what it takes to get a Honda over any obstical that requires anything more than 2 wheel drive.

We were a good 5 miles from the nearest pavement and just exploreing. We had not crossed any fences or gone off trail. We had only climbed a berm at the begining of t...

(brakes are for pussys) I have yet to burn up a belt, so I dont see a problem there. Other than the changes that they have alr...
