@@wild_goose_0285 In my experience, first of all what size of wheel, and tires where on the machine when you got it ? If the machine was run in a lot of water, mud, and sand the wheel bearings will. Honda wheel bearings tend to need replaced after so many miles anyways, that’s one of the reasons I avoid, water, sand, and mud. I also advise not putting oversized tires, or heavy wheels and tires as they will wear them out quicker. I means it’s 23yrs old, that’s not really that bad, that’s normal to replace bearings. I would buy Honda Genuine OEM though, not the cheap stuff. I usually get my parts from partszilla. Yes, adjust the valves. I have a video on my channel about adjusting the valves on my 300, it’s lengthy though, and get you a service manual as it explains it all to you, along with some TH-cam videos you should get a well rounded idea of how, if you don’t already. Make sure you do a compression check, so you get the Honda spec compression. 5,424 miles isn’t much on the engine. Ball joints also wear too over time, but those are all typical wear components that will need replaced on ATVS, the engine should last well over 100,000 miles, though if properly serviced regularly as the owners schedule maintenance manual recommends. It sounds like it may have been rode a little rough, but as long as the engine oil was changed frequently enough, you shouldn’t have any real issues. Suspension, bearings, ball joints, etc that’s normal on Machines that old, and that many miles, but all serviceable. Just a little wrench time.

I’m looking to replace the neutral switch sensor probably this coming weekend, I uploaded a video explaining it. I know the battery, relay, starter, starter relay cable, fuses, kill switch, lights, reverse switch sensor, reverse light indicator, oil temperature switch sensor, all work. If it’s not the sensor I will look at replacing the sub wiring harness for those sensors. The sensors cost $19.00 from Partzilla, and like $12.00 from places like EBay. I would rather order Honda OEM though personally.

Even if I requested that my government do that, that would not hear my voice. Why do you not request that your government stop the Cartels from smuggling illegal drugs, and people across the established border that now is ? Why do you not request that your government go after it’s own corruption that has plagued it for so long, under which the Mexican people have had to suffer so much oppression, and violence that they seek to flee the country to a safe territory. Your government is not helping its own citizens, but making things worse for them. They have had 50yrs to stop the Cartels, and have not succeeded, but have worked with them out of greed. The Mexican people have had to suffer as a result of such corruption, and other countries do not want to invest in trade with your country due to the corruption, and an untrustworthy, and reliable government to work with. They are not helping you. They have lost too much credibility to be given anymore territory, they can’t even keep what territory they do have under control. If they can’t control what they already have, why would a country that has a stable government, and stable society over which it has dominion over such territory give it to a government that would abuse it ? That makes no proper sense.

Yeah I just used that packaging band, or whatever it was from the smartwool socks to slide right over the mitt to address that issue, as well as adjusting the extension on my release to conform more to my trigger finger when I draw back, now I need to address the grip of the trigger finger, but I may already have found a solution to that problem.

I’m pretty sure you can. You can go to Tiffany Bottoms Wisconsin DNR website, and the place it provides for a camping permit should give you the contact information for the DNR management of Tiffany Bottoms the number is 608-418-0259, and the email is Mark.A.Rasmussen @wisconsin.gov

I used a air mattress from Walmart, with a portable battery powered pump. With the engine running all night, with the heat on worked fine. It didn’t consume anywhere near as much fuel as people seemed to think. People were like “ How much gas did it use ? “ thinking it would be a lot, but it probably didn’t consume $10.00 worth a night. Do the math that’s like $10.00 a night $70.00 for 7 days, way cheaper than any hotel per night. It used way less fuel than I expected. I kept checking the fuel gauge to check, and never dropped below 3 quarters of a tank for several days. I had the heat on high , and at its hottest setting.

@@TiffanyBottomsHunter It's a good set up. Your home away from home.

@@auaiao9 Yeah it actually worked out better than I expected

@@TiffanyBottomsHunter I used to have a black leather couch that I loved to sleep on. The leather was soft and the cushions were thick and soft and it felt so good to lay on it especially face down. I wish I still had it but I wore it out.

It’s a old rail track, it’s 13 miles long from where I enter to the other end of Tiffany Bottoms. Unless you have a Kayak, or canoe walking in is your only other option.

Thanks, yeah I’m going to try for this Halloween too. I didn’t see hardly any people their last year from November 7th-14th, their wasn’t really much deer movement or activity based on other people and myself. They are in there, but they seemed to be mainly nocturnal during the time I was there. There maybe more people in there the last week of October than in early November, but I only hunted there last year for the first time

Cool! Well, maybe I’ll run into you at a trailhead or something. Good luck, hopefully we’ll both put a Buck on the ground (and a few does too)!

@@ShaneOMackgreen yeah I have 4 tags this year

Yeah it’s worked really well for me

Yeah I think what I am going to do with that foot pedal is pry that bushing off, clean up that metal peg, clean inside that bushing, put some lithium grease between the bushing and peg, put new seals on it . I order new seals, o-ring, new cover and seal, and a new bearing for the backplate, I will just clean it up, and put it all back together, with some HondaPro sealant. I don’t know if JB weld would be the best to use, or is even necessary. I mean at least for now. I got the parts ordered so they should be here by next weekend.

I got them off, but yeah they were stuck. I here knocker loose is good, I actually was going to order some, but it was going to take a while getting here, and all they had locally was Liquid Wrench. Liquid Wrench is really good compared to other stuff, but I think knocker loose may be better, and kroil penetrating oil, but I don’t have experience with either. Liquid Wrench beats, WD-40, PB Blaster, and some others I know, but I have not compared it to knocker loose, knocker loose was my first choice, but it wasn’t readily available at the time

@@TiffanyBottomsHunter yep I live south Mississippi and Napa had two cans knocker lose left & I got them both a couple months ago...like you said Kroil is supposed to be really good too but I haven't tried any...im really enjoying following along as you fix your bike up thanks for sharing 🇺🇲

Yeah, I got to figure out that bushing issue, that was part of the problem with the foot brake, I mean the foot brake just doesn’t seem to rotate on that thing without a lot of friction. It would stick in different positions/angles without anything attached to it just sitting there. Yeah after really thinking about it that was what I was thinking with the back plate, as long as it seals properly. I got some Hondabrite cleaner I plan on using on it, I don’t know it I need that chipped piece to be there for it to seal. I think with some Hondabond on the drum cover seal it maybe fine. After a second look I think it won’t really matter functionally wise. It just needs to mount, function, and all seal up well, then it should be okay. Yeah I need to get ready for Bow Hunting it’s getting that time. I been really sick this whole week though, just got back from the clinic today. Been rough

Oh, yeah I bought a mint used OEM off EBay, a new OEM from Honda is still available, but it’s $700.00

Here is me testing the that exhaust th-cam.com/video/eXnSd9fSaoE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=_lQmy8B_-Bdi6yrT

@@TiffanyBottomsHunter I think I would silicone that small broken piece back in place...put a layer on the inside whatever you can get by with then use some around with your "O ring" & a lil heavier dobb where its broken im 💯 it will seal if you use enough good quality silicone...im just hoping to help you if I can...I have pretty much always worked on my stuff with good luck most of the time & im cheap lol I try to get by brother 🇺🇲 good luck either way you go

@@JoseyWhales-ii4dk Thanks I will probably consider that, and see what I can come up with. I’m still recovering from this oh sickness yet, it’s kinda put everything on hold for the moment. I worked at a casting company, and when Ford Engineers messaged up on transmission housing designs, we would fill those imperfections in the moundings with a product called Belzona epoxy that would harden, kinda like JB weld but I believe it was more durable. I will have to look that stuff up online.

I believe dawn would breakdown the dirt better, but it had dirt that had been sitting on it for who knows how long. I believe it does okay, but would probably do better for dirty machines just after a ride. I need a good pressure washer too, to really get all of it off, and more elbow grease 😏

What all have you tried doing to it ?

Here are a list of things to check: Valve clearance, exhaust manifold seal, and gasket., Cylinder head rocker arms, Cam chain, guides, and cam chain auto tensioner, Crankshaft bearings, piston rings, and piston pin for starters. Does it sound like it is in the top of the motor, middle, or bottom of the motor ? Have you changed the oil, and filter? Do you use Honda pro hp4 oil ? What grade of fuel do you use ?

Adjusting the valves is where most people start, and a fresh oil change and filter, new air filter, drain the existing fuel if it’s had the same fuel in it for several weeks, put in a whole tank of premium gas in it. I would do some searches on TH-cam of various things, valves rattling, piston slap, loose cam chain, exhaust manifold leak, bad crank bearing, etc That may help you narrow it down.

I don’t know about a toy, but it’s been a project. With work, I barely seem to have time for much else, so I took Labor Day, to do some labor 😂.

@@TiffanyBottomsHunter Just when a man should take the day off you worked. That's the way it goes.

@@auaiao9 Yeah I’m trying to get it completed at least to a certain point before Bow season, and this winter ❄️ 🥶

? Of course it’s the rear end. I was checking the rear differential oil level. If you think it is boring, then don’t watch it. 🤷🏻

Yeah been thinking about it, OEM is about $112.00 I usually only get OEM stuff, I’m trying to figure out what that ticking sound is though

@@TiffanyBottomsHunter You'll figure it out.

I’m from southern West Virginia

@@TiffanyBottomsHunter That explains the southern accent. I'm from the south too, Tennessee.

I don’t practice it, even though abstinence is , and has been a struggle over the years. I am a man as well, but I have never found God’s approval of this practice. In addition to God’s approval of it, I also feel it contradicts my own personality, and character.

@@TiffanyBottomsHunter It would be a struggle for me too if I didn't give in to it. When I get the urge I take care of it.

@@auaiao9 Not a wise thing to do

@@TiffanyBottomsHunter I see your point but honestly I think I'd go crazy if I didn't.

@@auaiao9 I didn’t say it was easy

I hunted during like the second week of November, not much deer movement last year, people weren’t really seeing much last year, maybe near the end of October, or near the end of November early December I believe last year was irregular based on the Wisconsin rut report

@@TiffanyBottomsHunter It's my first out of state hunt. I was more interested in the side nearest 25 where all the ag fields are. I'm starting along the Columbia river south of Wisconsin Dells and working west along the river. If I make it that far west Ill try Nelson-Trevino bottoms along the train tracks that split the bottoms with private ag

@@brushcrawler8612 There are some big Bucks in that area, but you have to find them at the right time

I know, I’m hoping the valve adjustment, and oil change will make a difference on the compression. There working on the main water line right outside my bedroom window, jack hammers, concrete saws, excavators, concrete trucks, and contractors yelling at one another “ Hey, the waters not turned off over there yet ! “ I heard them out there early this morning, lm like already

I heard that, but I also follow The Wisconsin Rut Report, not too many people were seeing a lot of movement, but later in the season they did near the opening of Gun season, I do believe when a strong cold front comes in, usually sometimes in October, that time is good, I believe it stirs the 🦌 up

Too easy ☺️

I seen a nice 8 point, but that's about it
