    My wife's grandpa just gave me his 94 4x4 timberwolf. It's sat outside the last 17 years. Took me 20 minutes and had that bad boy running. Very surprised. And really like it.

    Bro I just picked up 2 of these!!! A 4x4 and a 2x4. Gonna build for my son and his friends to ride. Coolest small bikes I've ever seen. Thanks for the videos.

      Used to have a '92 Timberwolf 2x4 (videos on my channel) and now have an '02 Bear Tracker which is nearly identical. They're amazing tough little machines. They're the Billy goats of the ATV world and honesty if you just need something basic to roll around on They're really hard to beat.

    Thank you so much for the level of detail! You have saved me having to troubleshoot several little things I want to fix on my Timberwolf!
    For one I could not find the Choke and honestly thought it did not have one.
    You also helped me figure out which brakes I need to adjust!
    So far its a solid ATV and cant wait to button up the little issues with your help!

    You have the shift pattern sticker right there on the front left plastics it should be a five-speed with reverse and a semi-automatic transmission. Not too dissimilar to a bear tracker 250 which replaced the timberwolf. Great machines. I love my 2002 bear tracker.

    • @MidNebraskaMotorsports
      @MidNebraskaMotorsports  Před 3 měsíci

      Heck yea. Fun to ride and enough power to pull my weight. If you need more helpful tips, check out: czcams.com/video/X0AdFxkJiOg/video.html and if you need parts: www.ebay.com/str/midnebraskamotorsports. thanks for watching and the comment.

    You can start it in any gear if you squeeze the parking brake while pressing the starter

    Lightest 4x4 atv ever made?

    • @MidNebraskaMotorsports
      @MidNebraskaMotorsports  Před 3 měsíci

      Don’t near the smallest chassis size for sure. I’ll let others weigh in on if it is the lightest. Thanks for watching and for the comment. Let us know if you need anything. Check out midnebraskamotorsports.com

    I bought a yamaha timberwolf 4x4 does not have pull start just electric start it’s a greenish color and there is not grinding marks where the vin should be but i can’t see the vin and it’s been spray painted how can i tell what year?

  • @drewfox5575
    @drewfox5575 Před 2 měsíci

    Love the videos, thank you! However my 94 Timberwolf will only pull start and run no lights even when running?! If I put a battery in I get no lights, no electric start, and no neutral or reverse lights. Any ideas?

    Ppdras mostrar donde viene el número de niv o serie del chasis por que no encuentro el mio

  • @lesfrost169
    @lesfrost169 Před rokem

    Thanks for your thorough video. Just bought a '94 and will be bringing it home tomorrow. Now I know what to look for as I sort it out. Are you able to suggest what brands you consider "good" when a Regulator Rectifier is needed? I am guessing a genuine Yamaha is the most expensive.

  • @ericmccormac6102
    @ericmccormac6102 Před 3 měsíci +1

    I just bought a used Timber Wolf 250? Is a 94 2x4, but the odd part is that the engine is labeled 1500CM3. Wouldn't that make it a 150? Newb question I'm sure. Also, front shocks are done for, all spring. Has anyone swichted out the shocks for the eye to eye style? I'm thinking I might as well upgrade the A-arms and everything, they also have knuckle adapter. Anyone done this?

    • @MidNebraskaMotorsports
      @MidNebraskaMotorsports  Před 3 měsíci

      You’ve got a project on your hands. Send me a picture of this ATV. I’m curious what you are working with. Normally the 1500 would mean 150cc but Yamaha also uses number/letter combinations to identify parts. I’m wondering if you are seeing these.

  • @kennyjenkins4656
    @kennyjenkins4656 Před rokem +1

    I bought one of these for my gf awhile back and the brakes are not that great. Is there a disc brake conversion I could get for a 98 4x4 or anything that will cross onto this quad?

    • @dellstudio10
      @dellstudio10 Před rokem

      May just need new shoes or adjusting. I find the drum brakes work just fine when they are in good shape. But if they are worn or out of adjustment they are practically useless.

  • @DeltaThreeOne
    @DeltaThreeOne Před 11 měsíci

    I’ve seen models without a pull start. Can u just plop a pull start on one that doesnt have one?

  • @doncapps5777
    @doncapps5777 Před 8 měsíci

    I cannot find the VIN where you listed it. Not sure if it is a 96, 97, or 98? are they all the same place?

  • @JohannFranz-wy2ff
    @JohannFranz-wy2ff Před 4 měsíci +1

    Mine only runs with choke, any ideas?

    • @MidNebraskaMotorsports
      @MidNebraskaMotorsports  Před 3 měsíci

      Pilot jet issues for sure. Also you might check the air/fuel screw. But I’d start with the pilot jet. All of that should be covered in this video. Thanks for the comment! Let us know if there is anything we can help with. Check out: czcams.com/video/X0AdFxkJiOg/video.html for more tips. And: www.ebay.com/str/midnebraskamotorsports for all your parts.

      Yes, this model is all time 4x4. Thanks for the comment! Let us know if there is anything we can help with. Check out: czcams.com/video/X0AdFxkJiOg/video.html for more tips. And: www.ebay.com/str/midnebraskamotorsports for all your parts.

    I wonder if you could tell me why my timberwolf runs forward without revning it.

    • @96yamahatimberwolf250

      Your idle is probably too high lower that down and it should be good same thing happened to me

      Throttle cable could be in a bind the way it's routed isn't great if you give it slack or take cap off carb n see what's going on in slide

    How fast do you expect these to go and what can be done to make them a bit faster?

    • @MidNebraskaMotorsports
      @MidNebraskaMotorsports  Před rokem

      Just a rough guess, but 32mph. Anyone else have an answer? You could always repipe, and rejet. You won't find much for performance parts on the timberwolf. Thanks for watching! Let us know if you need anything: www.ebay.com/str/midnebraskamotorsports

    • @tommyconner1467
      @tommyconner1467 Před 10 měsíci

      ​@@MidNebraskaMotorsportsthey was rated to run exactly 50 mph when they was new, so id guess somewhere around 42 mph, at least that's what mine will run, Even when it was new, it would max at 42 mph on flat ground and down hill it would push 50 mph, it still runs 42 mph

  • @danielanaya7813
    @danielanaya7813 Před rokem

    There is a oil plug by the side output shaft behind shifter that has a brass and maybe a wire connection , do you know what that is ?

    • @senditshop4032
      @senditshop4032 Před rokem +1

      My guess is the wire is for the neutral/reverse light. And the plug maybe the trans fluid. Just a guess.
