I just picked up this 4 wheeler yesterday, got it off a local website for the state I live in anyways. It looks great for its age and runs good, just a few questions.
First: what is the new ones considered, I was looking up parts and it asked if it was a recon or this or whatever, what would it be equal to with the newer models?
second: I am haveing probs with the throttle cable. sometimes if you turn left the cable gets pulled on and it makes it give it more thorttle, I turn the adjustment at the throttle but its acting funky.
Do they make a twist thorttle for this bike??
Thrid: it has 5 gears and but when you give it gas it moves, how does it work, I mean is it just a cenferiacal cluth in it?
Will it hurt it if you leave it in 3rd gear or 2nd and start off? or is this okay, or should you always start in 2nd and shift up? This is going to be used to pull stuff around the yard and I cant see ever needing to get faster then 3rd gear.
Like I said just got it yesterday so been playing with it, It has the kick starter and but I tried to kick it a minute ago and it acted like it sliped and didnt catch , is this postible? or maybe I just didnt have it all the way in Nutral?
I am having to get used to not having a clutch as I own a 300EX.
that little plug on the side of the handle bars, I looked up online says it is a 12Volt power soruce. is it supposed to have a cover over it to protect the conectors?
Sorry for so many questions. I havent posted in forever my 300ex is runing great and I hardly ride anymore.
what is that round black thing on the side of the carb? is it a choke or something? it has choke up on the handle bar but not sure it works.
Thanks
