I dont know about your bike but a few bikes i have known have had this 4 down gear configuration. I would say it is meant to be like that.

Take the front wheel off , clean out the mud, free all the frozen parts and grease the brake cam shaft going through the brake panel housing. Replace the front brake cable and you should be good to ride. Hint: If the front brake drum is full of mud you need to remove the rear wheel to clean out the mud and grease the brake cam shaft there also.

Yamaha 4 wheelers are notorious for having bad intake manifolds. They often crack or separate causing problems similar to what you are experiencing. If there is a gasket on the manifold replace it and carefully inspect the manifold for cracks and separation from the metal flange. If your machine is equipped with reed valves inspect them for bending , leaking , cracking, bad gaskets, etc.
Just in case part of the problem is electrical , buy a new spark plug cap. NGK makes a replacement for about $5. The resisters in the spark plug caps burn out all the time. The cap simply unscrews off of the end of the wire. It might be all you need.

If it's a 1300 then 3.7 litres at filter change. Smaller bikes, obviously less.

I would try a new plug and spray starting fuid into the carb to start it.

Your existing kill switch, when applied, completes a circuit to ground. The tether does the same when the tether is pulled. You can tap it into the kill switch.

Gday,
I have just finished restoring a 1981 model XT250.
The best advice I can offer is to take your digital camera and record as much info as you can about the way all the cables are fed through the bike also pay close attention to the way the wiring harness lays.
You will find all kinds of diagrams but photos are much more reliable for me.Photograph every thing even if it seems obscure it will help!!
Find heaps of containers for all the bolts bearings and odds and ends.Keep a roll off masking tape close buy and write info ontO the tape and attach it to the containers or the parts.
This will help when you try to screw the mirrors on and find out that one is a left hand thread.
When dismantling the wheels put the axle back through the wheel and all the components and put that nut back on secure.
Its little things like keeping the bolts in there right place that will help when reassembling.
If you can screw the bolt back into its original hole after removing a component do so .
The most used tool I can recommend would be a decent wire wheel on a bench grinder(a grinder that is bolted to the bench)
You can bring almost any bolt that looks like rusted **** back to new and it will take off paint and scale no trouble.
Very fine steel wool for your chrome .
Get a manual .The digital ones are ok up to a point but you should buy one form Clymer
hope this helps.
Davo.
Good luck

it is most likely the spring on the kickstart shaft. have had this problem with more than one bike. pull the cover and check 'er out

Sounds like a battery that will not hold a charge. When the battery is low all the juice goes to the starter. Not enough left for a good spark. Kick it and the juice is there for the spark. Once running for a short bit the battery gets recharged so the key works all day. Then the battery dissapates the charge overnight.

Befor you spen $50 or so on a battery, look to see if there is water covering the top of the battery plates. If so then the current battery needs to be replaced. If not, add water to cover the top of the plates and ride it for a day. See if it holds a charge now. Battery may still be bad but it was worth a shot.

Please rate this answer. Thanks jnsocia!

hello, you should be able to go to yamaha.com they also have a atv forum, and a motorcycle forum, you can put your serial numbers in and it will show you this info very quickly. friend of mine bought a 2001 atv, come to find out it was a 2000 model. he went to their site and fond this info out...

i would take it to the nearest motorcycle shop. its good to get a check up on your bike every 2 months..

probably, alot of these sprockets are almost the same size so often when they are checking for compatability, they often mistake since they are close. If you bought it from a dealer, take it back with your old one and make them put a caliper on it to measure it properly.

hi, U can a chart or diagram for this specific motorbike at yamaha authorised workshop or dealer or manufacture located in your area or just log on to yamaha offical website that might help out much.

This is a highly ill - eagle act to do. In the old days we would put an electric drill on the drive cable, but now they make them tamper proof so they only go one way. The bezels are crimped on so you can't get inside them. I expect modern one may be electronic. How will your insurance company know what mileage you have done? I have never known an insurance cancel or fine due to mileage. You should have just disconnected it when you got close to the limit. Buy a used one and use them for 6 months in turns.

Make sure the fuel is getting to the valve and passing through it. Possible blockage in fuel line or in the tank.
