If you work on a 454, 400, or 500 and it needs shocks, the front Fox shocks and springs off a 1998 ZR snowmobile will bolt right up. It is amazing how much it improves the handling.

@kountryquads9475 Год назад

Lol I’m gonna have to try that if I get ahold of one

@tanaman2000 Год назад

@@kountryquads9475 I was a test rider at Cat when these were made. As soon as I found out they fit I put them on 2 of my 500 4x4's. You could slide them into a corner and they had very little body roll and were even fun to get air with. As soon as I can find another one this will be the first thing I do to it.

Dude stick a magnet on the back of your compression tester so u can just stick that bad boy where ever u want. U use it so much, it would make it way easier to position it for the camera. Also your a beast. Love the videos man. Cheers dude.

@@connerb1954 I just bought an used cfmoto and then researched all of the different atv-s for a whole year. My choices would've been: 1. Honda (not so powerful but extremely reliable) 2. Can-am (most powerful, reliable but costs the most to repair and maintain) 3-4: Yamaha or Kawasaki. (also powerful and they seem to be reliable, didn't research much further because they are not really widely sold here) 5. Cfmoto, the one i got. (Reliable, cheap to buy and maintain, winches and everything included in the price. Power is less than equivelant yamaha, kawasaki, can-am. More powerful than Hondas though) This time the 2022 model. I have seen every cfmoto video out there and literally almost everyone in our country rides them. Some torture them like crazy and they don't really break. Except for the differentials or axels WHEN you use diff-lock and smash your wheels to the ground at high speed, which breaks every atv-s diffs or axels anyways.

Cool video. I have a '98 400 2x4. Looks just like yours. I bought it new. Had to put a new carb. on it a couple yrs. ago. Just changed the oil and am putting a new petcock and fuel lines + time for a new battery. It's been a great machine. Got new tires on it and a while back I replaced all the rubber bushings in the shocks. What a diff. that made too.

I am a big believer in Marvel Mystery Oil. I use this in my gas so the more I ride the better it runs because the oil really cleans the internal workings of the carb which in some cases won’t have to pull the carb.

Could even turn into a job. KEEP UP THE AWESOME VIDS!!!!

@sandmanbub Год назад

Since you ride through the woods and fields of tall grass and other growth, you might find releasing nematodes (to kill ticks and other pests) very helpful. When I moved into my current house, I had to spray, our yard and the woods behind us, poison to kill 'em off. That was a lot of work. My son found nematodes online and released them twice, at different times during the same year and we haven't seen a single tick since and that was 4 years ago. There are different types of nematodes, so you'll have to choose the correct ones. I have the link to the site that my son purchased them, but I can't post it here. Easy enough to find with a quick Google search though.

@PaulHigginbothamSr 6 месяцев назад

These people that ya'll buy from are their own worst enemy. Screwing up the wiring this bad takes a knack. Thank God there is someone like you to straighten it back out. When ya'll get a new one you never know what you've got till it produces symptoms and on this one it had nuts in the exhaust till they finally blew out releasing the engine to finally run right. Ya'll thought the brakes were on for a while it was dragging so bad. That rear brake may still be dragging but ol Joe will get it sussed out.

Quick question I've noticed you pre lube some of the cylinders on your projects up with a lil bottle with extended nozzle of 2 stroke oil so it's safe to use this on the 4 stroke engines from what I'm watching on your channel. Just wanted to verify not to pour in as the oil supply but to lube a lil through the spark plug hole?

@owensbama1923 Год назад

Yes it is.

@garymallard4699 Год назад

you can use any lube or oil like that..it is just a small amount to oil the rings cylinder walls as those are dry from sitting... you don't fill it up ...then when it starts up it burns off ( so smokes abit )... best to spin the piston a few times before spark plug goes back in...and then you can fire it up... 2 stroke oil is ok in a 4 stroke in this manner...use proper oil in the engine oil gearbox
