"What we have here is a failure to communicate". I guess you'll just have to be "reeducated". Pack your stuff, you'll be on your way to one of Biden's many reeducation camps, where you'll learn how to hug trees, love everyone (except white folks), and hate yourself. You'll soon learn how looting and destruction of property is just a peaceful way to express yourself. You'll learn how to live off the government and the true meaning of equity.  All in all, a wonderful way to spend a month, since you aren't permitted to leave the camp.

I dont know why but I have had 2 solenoids and 2 batteries fail in the last two weeks  on three  different ATVs .. must be the heat...or the moon ...   Thanks to Amazon, I am up and running quickly on al 3 

In Lou'sana,,, i bet it's the humidity....

but just think, if you go all electric you can be like a tesla owner and carry a Honda generator in your bed. Or my electrical gremlins hopped over to your machines.

Nahhh, we only get 97.9% humidity here in southeast Texas, so it's a walk in the park compared to Lou'sana humidity.

well damn... now a frickin starter went on a 5 year old Honda RECON ... must be the heat... Honda wanted $385  .. thats insane.. its 4 inches long .... Got one on Amazon.. $39 .. spins the crap out of it. ...I think I might try to find brushes for the OEM , rebuild it and save for another day.. 

Posted

yeah right... well its damn hot here, its ALWAYS damn hot here.. We only have 2 seasons.. We have SUMMER  and then we have JANUARY ...and then SUMMER again ... Right now we have NO GASOLINE .. cant find any anywhere .. I had 25 gallons for my generator but had to use it in my truck.   I just wonder what all those ELECTRIC CAR owners are doing since there been no electricity for 9 days .. Push them maybe?

There's been way too much hype on electric vehicles. Nobody talks about the destruction of the environment caused by the mining of the metals needed for the batteries, nor the cost of replacing those batteries when that time comes. And this whole autonomous vehicle thing is just so far out there. If you don't (or can't) drive, take public transportation. Don't rely on a driverless vehicle to get you where you're going. Some of the technical advances in the automotive world I think are great. This AIN'T one of them. You certainly can't take a long road trip, as the batteries need recharged after a few hunderd miles, at least.

My rant, I'm off the soap box now.

few hundred miles IF you dont need to run A/C or heat.. then its cut in half. and what if theres no where to plug in when you get there ? bring 10 miles of extension cord? and why do people think its cost free ?  the 240V electricity for up to 8 hours for recharge aint free.   Batteries last maybe 4-5 yrs.. cost $10K for new ones!, And then theres the autonomous driving ones that get confused by any flashing light and crash into Fire Trucks, Ambulances, Road Construction signs .. I would never trust my life to a car computer to drive me 70 mph.   This tech is NOT READY FOR PRIME TIME

yeah its a whole unit for charging , .. requires 240V from your electric meter . You dont just plug in an ordinary extension cord .. Chevy is recalling  all their BOLT models due to fires starting in batteries while charging .. This crap is just not ready.. Just like wind and solar. We saw in Texas what happens to Turbines and Solar Farms when IT GETS COLD!  People died .. We are decades away from getting off fossil fuels. Liberals and govt need to accept that .. and NO! the world is not ending in 10 years as that pea brain AOC says .... But I digress... Managed to get 30 gallons of gas at 4AM today.. no line

We dodged a bullet with Nicholas.  The Eye passed about 20 miles south of us, we got about 2" and tropical storm force winds.

'Lousana took the grunt of the rain.......again..

Yeah, we were pretty fortunate. I found it on the ground outside of a motel. We all shared it, my mom and 2 dads and 12 siblings. Just cleaned the hair out of it. Couldn't find any toothpaste, though. They had the lid on the dumpster locked.

      The conversion took about 350lbs. off the vehicle.  It never rode great, but now I feel every  crack in the road.  I have backed off spring compression nut to the point just under where they would move around if suspension was at full extension, but it is still very stiff.  I would like to put some softer coilover springs on it, but I have no idea what the spring rate is with the original springs so I would just be guessing on what to order.  Does anyone have the data for the original spring compression rate?  I am willing to give up a little ground clearance for a softer ride. Right now when sitting still the rear suspension is at or near full extension and the rear tires have several degrees of camber which will cause uneven wear if allowed to continue in this state.

      Okay everyone, need some help here. I got my 2014 Bennche Bighorn 700 from my father inlaw. He has had it since new and as far as I know never had any problems with it until recently. It began with it being hard to start and having to give it some throttle for it to start up. Then it wouldn't stay running once it did start. If you go to start it, it will fire right off and only run for a split second and then die. If you give it some throttle it will start and stay running as long as your foot is on the pedal. While it's running its pretty rough and backfires. Here is a list of everything I've done so far. Initially I checked compression and it was low. I changed the cylinder, piston and rings. Took the head apart cleaned and laped the valves. Checked timing a few times. Adjusted the valves. New spark plug. Checked the air filter, it was fine. New battery. Changed the fuel pump because of a broken fitting. Changed the fuel filter, lines and fuel injector. Dumped the old fuel and put new in. Changed the air idle control, TPS, MAP sensor, Voltage Regulator, ECU and harness. I was getting codes 31, 107, 113 and 122 on the display. Once I changed the ECU no more codes have been displayed but still have the same issues. All fuses look good and as far as I can tell Grounds are good unless there are some I can't find. I'm at a loss here. Not really sure where to go. Compression was better after everything I did but I don't remember the numbers. I'll have to check it again if someone thinks that could be the issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

      Recently I had an overheating issue on my 2022 Coleman Outfitter 550 (Hisun UT550) and to check to make sure it was fixed I took it out for a ride around the block. After a couple cycles on the LED coolant meter, I took it for a couple mile ride and on my way back I heard a loud metallic snap then a grinding noise. It was still able to move under its own power but very slowly. I was about 2 blocks from the truck so 'I limped it home and up onto the trailer. I know I need to tear it apart and look for what broke, but anyone have a guess as to where to start? I'm seriously getting tired of this damn machine! 750 miles on it and already replaced the belt, wet clutch, primary clutch, clutch roller weights among a few other things. Seriously, this friggin machine has spent more time on the lift than on the road. I thought I bought this new because it was from the owner of a tractor supply, but he registered it under the stores name making me the 2nd owner voiding any and all warranties.
      Any Ideas what to look for would be appreciated.
      Thanks

      Hey everyone,
      I recently purchased a CFmoto ATV and I'm looking to add some accessories to enhance its performance and usability.
      I'm curious about what you all consider essential add-ons for a CFmoto.
      Specifically, I'm interested in accessories that improve comfort, storage, and overall ride experience.
      Are there any brands or products that you’ve found to work particularly well with CFmoto models?
      Any tips on where to get the best deals would also be appreciated. Looking forward to your suggestions and advice!
