Hey, i have 2011 700, just wondering how bad is some play in the crank. I just picked up parts for top end, but not sure if its worth going all the way. Crank assembly is expensive.

Where is the mark on the crankshaft? I looked in the timing window but there are no marks

Its South Korean for a start

This is terrible information

I have to ask, What was you doing when the engine blew? Racing or just riding hard?

Yamaha doesn't build any junk. Thats not going to happen often.

Lot of work putting a motot in a sxs..lol good job

Hell yeah!

Serious OCD man but very fun to watch. Your customers are fortunate. Thanks for sharing your expertise in such a professional manner.

Great video. That is a rancher 400 fourtrax at. Not a foreman. I have the same bike.

this is a wicked video mate, couldn't really find much else about them, apparently it's really common for them to gunk up due to neglect (cheap bikes). ive currently got an '06 carby 250 gtr and it's struggling to start in the morning. starter and relay are good. would a full carby tear down and clean be the best place to start or should I replace the vacuum fuel pumps?

I guess what I wanted to say is name brand scooters initial costs is hard for parents to swallow and they hate to spend that much money if their son or daughter are going to lose interest rather quickly. Since you are unable to sit on and look at the scooter in person that is something else that goes against purchase, because like I said they want you to sign on the line before they will order one for you. They say if they order one and you do not buy, they will be stuck with it. And there are cases of dealers having a three or four year old scooter that never got sold. Where I live you must be 16 have a car license and your scooter must be registered and be insured and pass an annual safety inspection which gets a sticker on the left front fork. Anything larger than a 50cc requires a motorcycle endorsement. Yes I understand exactly what you are saying but I think the thinking is I will go with a cheap scooter for their first one, and if they continue to show interest then I will buy him or her a better quality scooter. You just cannot find used name brand scooters everywhere unless they are popular in the first place. In areas of the US that does not require registration of a 50cc maybe you can. Laws vary state to state in the US. 50cc scooters are known as drunk cycles in states that do not require registration or insurance. If you get a DUI and lose your license, then you get a 50ccscooter to get to the bar or to work.

Unless you live in an area where scooters are somewhat popular, you will not find used ones for sale. Where I live in the northeast of the US, you will for the most part be in Harley land. Seems you rarely see anything else on the roads around here. Name brand bike shops survive on ATV, side by side, and dirtbike sales and repair to survive. Yes, you occasionally see a dualsport on the road but that is it. Most major brand bike dealers do not stock scooters and will not order one unless you commit to purchase. So, if you do see a scooter on the road, you can almost bet a paycheck it will be Chinese.

Great video with an easy to follow design. What was your compression after installing the new piston and rings?

Just amazing. Thank you..

If you had now shown how much fat belongs in there

Awesome you did this. Fyi you can pull entire engine and transaxle as an assembly. Country cat has the service manuals for free on line. Page 30 is where it starts. You were not far off for winging it so be proud of that. These engines are very strong and easy to 350hp. This engine 2020 and later are all turbo ready. The sidewinder turbo sled uses the same exact engine. Pre 2020 the internals and head parts are different. Not sure why AC doesnt offer the turbo from the factory. They really messed up trying to mess over speed on some measly commisions. Imagine if AC still had speed involved and they didnt stop production during covid. That is a ceo that should never again be a ceo of any company.

You crazy fuck lol you pull the entire rear cradle man the entire rear including engine and all pops right out, best built UTV available today. Textron needs to FIRE their city boys who were placed in charge at Arctic Cat, get some real life long riders with decades of experience, their machines would then get back ontop. Sad to see the beat maker go from the top to a joke

Thank you for this! I'd always assumed there was far more residual fuel in the hose from the previous use. Clearly not.

Crazy to think all that destruction was from some bad gas, and that the cylinder wasn’t damaged

I thought babie wheels didnt need balencing

Pirelli diablo

WHAT’S THE NEW TYRE YOU INSTALLED ?

I have a 2020 XX with this engine. I now have over 7,000mile but it is important to check oil always and change it around 600-700 miles because it will start consuming it when it gets dirty.

I’m surprised you didn’t just pull the engine cradle and then swap the engine over. Takes a million times less time. Manual explains it easily
