Well it has been a while since I had a good ride.

I was at my father n laws in Ojos Negro Baja Mexico. I took the kids on a tour of about 150 miles of the Baja 500 course. We had a blast and the trooper performed awesome.

I had some recent problems and replaced the drive shaft and some tranny parts along with some clutch parts and figured while I had the motor and tranny out I would replace the skid plate with heavy duty aluminum which is needed for where I ride in the baja with all the rocks.

During the last few weeks I also got to take the T4 to Jacume in Baja Califonia for pre running the CODE race. Again great results also added an Intercomm system which really made things more fun since we could chat the entire time, plus listen to music also.

Looking to do a few more things now finally going to add fender well extenders since I have the bigger tires I ate a lot of dust and small rocks in Jacume.

Amber light is operational for the pre running.

Replacing side mirrors and adding a 17" rear view mirror.

Still need to do shocks.

Recently learned lesson: buy your shocks slightly longer than needed and put limit straps on to hold them back to proper length, If you haven't done anything to your shock yet, you have probably heard the nasty little clunk as the the shock top out, I had to give up some travel to add limit straps to mine, but it got rid of the clunk, for the most part. Went for a ride last yesterday where I usually have lots of clunky and had very little, also made for a smoother ride.

      2016 Hisun 500 runs rough no power
      By CapnWalleye
      Just picked up a Hisun 500 that had shift issues (corroded fan gear) which I fixed. It also didn't seem to be running smoothly then all of a sudden it got worse. It seems to miss on both idle and when pushing the gas pedal to the floor and doesn't seem to be running at full power. I've been working with a local person who is walking me through some steps, but I'd like some input from this group as well. What I've done:
      - drained the fuel tank and replaced it with 93 octane fuel and added heet to help with any water problems.
      - replaced the fuel injector.
      - disconnected the battery (several times) to allow the module to reset.
      - set the valve clearance, both intake and exhaust, within specs ... intake was tight but exhaust seemed fine.
      - replaced the battery.
      - replaced the O2 sensor.
      Nothing has helped. Not sure what the next steps are, but would appreciate any expertise that can be offered here.

      2015 MSU-500 crank - no start
      By Prepper
      I'm working with a 2015 MSU-500.  Basic symptoms are it cranks well, but will not fire.  It has spark, and it has fuel spraying out of the injector (and spraying starting fluid into the throttle body and plug hole makes no difference).  It has compression.  I bought it not running, and no other information was available.  It has 775 miles on it and 127 hours.  It looks to be in very good shape.   Previous owner replaced fuel pump, ECU, coil, plug, and the fuse/relay box that mounts on the firewall, then gave up.
      My questions relate to cam/valve timing, considering the symptoms and diagnostics so far.  My thinking was the woodruff key sheared off and the crank spun, making it out of time.  My question is, by the pictures attached does anyone have an opinion as to the cam/valve timing being correct?  In the crankshaft picture you can see a timing mark visible.  In the camshaft picture I have arrows directed towards what I think are timing marks (which appear to be exactly 180 degrees from one another).  However, the long arrow in what appears to be bolt configuration in line with the piston/rod line.  Here is a puzzling note... in the position you see in the pictures... I have valve lash on both the intake and exhaust.  I think it's at TDC, given the visible crank timing mark and valve lash on both valves. 
      Any thoughts ?  Does this appear to be in proper valve time ?  Have I missed anything simple ?  Thanks in advance for your input.

      Axis 500 parts
      By Bobbers
      My wife accidentally ran the Axis 500 into a fence and tore the front end up (broke her arm too). Just wondering where the best place to get front end parts? I know she busted the knuckle but haven’t jacked it up yet. Thanks guys for any help!

      Axis 500 4x4 turns over but no spark
      By D MAYNARD
      I have an Axis 500 4x4 UTV that I was given.  It looks like an almost new machine with 39 hrs on it however it was apparently under water from the hurricane . I have no spark at the plug. I have replaced the plug, the plug wire, & the stator so far. Can anyone advise me of what i need to check and or replace to get this thing running? Any advise would be greatly appreciated. 
                                    Thank You,
                                  D Maynard
