looking at 05 brute force 750

[gdhillon]

Ooh okay now im pickin up what your puttin down lol

Iirc to correct the problem the bus needs to be cut out and the wires all just need to be spliced together?

What is the purpose of the Buss?

Dunno.... Engineering feet of not awsome lol

 

[gdhillon]

Lol i like your logic.

I found a 650 Two 4x4 quads for sale!! | ATVs | St. Albert | Kijiji.

Seems like a good one, is there a big power difference between the 750 and 650?

 

[tex78]

Yes it has got more


Also ride different, 650 is solid axle rear fir the most of them

750i Brute Force | ATVs | Grande Prairie | Kijiji

Alright, I think I'll go with this one then. And just cut out that buss right away and splice everything together....only thing that kind of concerns me would be the water pump and timing chain needed attention with such few kms

 

[tex78]

Do oil changes lots and chains stay good

My brute had 7000 hard km, had a choke plunger stick before a poker rally, road it and didn't change the oil after... Next ride first 5 min has ticking noise from behind the pull cord

Loose chain from bad oil

O I see, how did the choke affect the oil ?

 

[tex78]

Didn't burn all the gas , it thins the oil out...

Oh I see.

So besides sra in a 650 and the power difference what else is different between the 650 and 750? Is the 650 still susceptible to wiring issues?

 

[tex78]

Oh I see.

Yes same issues


Rear axle is about it

 

[gdhillon]

Okay, coming for a 2stroke poo 400 I think the 650 will be sufficient enough for me.

I'll let you know what I decide to go with,thanks for all the help

 

[gdhillon]

Okay found a 09 canam outlander 800, it has stl clutches primary and secondary updated clutch cover new ball joints and bushings. Has 1748 miles.

Any issues you guys know of with these? I googled it but didn't really see much besides it being the first year canam introduced power steering

 

[doorfx]

Bent twisted frames

 

[gdhillon]

Is that b/c the single beam thing they have going on for the frame? Any fixes besides cutting and welding?

 

[doorfx]

There are frame stiffeners out there

 

[tex78]

Or a solid tube that u hammer inside the tube there

 

[gdhillon]

alright thanks guys, how are they to work on compared to brutes and king quads?

 

[tex78]

All about the same for most


Belt is way harder, brute is the easiest

no idea on king quad never had to replace one! seems like dj is all over the map on quads, they will all have there problems, you are going to be rolling the dice on any used quad. overall condition is a good indicator, as is looking at the seller. i would say your best bet is a yamaha 700 or a king quad 700, as they are not usually purchased by the performance crowd. any and all quads can be swamped, and made to look good. a newer quad from any of the manufactures will work fine, go take anything you are interested in out for a ride, note anything that just doesn't feel right or has weird noises. have it inspected at a shop for overall condition. you will have to do some repairs, what when and how much is the question. kinda sounds like you are more concerned with price than overall condition, that is usually a recipe for disaster.
