Hello,

I am new to four wheeling and just purchased a 1998 Honda fourtrax two wheel drive. It is in fairly good condition but has some parts missing. I am a little anal and want to have it look as close to new as possible.

I am looking for some rear fender parts specifically the right side black fender flair that has the plastic rivets that connects to the tan plastic fender and the frame support bar that ties to the fender. I also need both side foot protectors and the plastic cover over the kick starter (tan). I also need to replace the rear brake pads. Are there reputable on-line parts sources that are cheaper then the dealer? Is there anyplace on-line I can go to see how to change the rear pads.

It also bothers me that I do not have the original manual so I don't know things like; what type of motor oil to use and capacity and what other maintenance there is. I cannot find any grease zerks. Are there any? Is there a way to download a copy of the owners manual. What maintenance tends to get overlooked that I should check?

Does anyone have any advice for a first timer.

Thanks

      Hello All
      I'm kinda new to ATVs. I just bought a 1987 Suzuki quad runner 230 Dual Range. I'm having a problem finding info on it. It's very clean, only 2.800 miles. The front wheels are only 30 in.center to center. I was thinking about adding wheel spacers to give it more stability. I realize the added stress on ball joints and bearings. I'm wondering if there are any other concerns? Any input is greatly appreciated!

      I’ve got a 2000 400ex with a dg slip on muffler, it came with he stock muffler on it but the previous owner had the dg in a box so I put it on. I’ve been riding it for the past month and a half and every time I let off it backfires, and the other day the backfires got way louder, 2x louder! I’m concerned that I may hurt my motor? Why does is backfire??? Thanks

      My name says it all. I have a '03 Honda Sporttrax 400EX with a new aftermarket carb on it that seems to be having issues. I can start it but it idles really rough and when I give it throttle it just kills the engine. I have tried adjusting the idle screw but to no avail. I am in the San Diego Ca area. 
      Any advice will be greatly appreciated. I would also like to get an owners manual for the thing too but can't seem to find a downloadable one.

      I recently bought a 87 TRX 250 not running of course, the owner had a brand new Key Switch on it.
      I think it is the wrong one or wrong wire colors as the colors dont match up with wiring diagram i downloaded for it. 
      anyone have a pic of their ign switch wires where they connect with the wire colors for that model? I ended up leaving the black/w stripe and
      green wire disconnected in order to hot wire it for other testing but would like to know as the colors dont match diagram.
