I am new to this page, and also new to owning a fourtrax 300. Picked up an '88 4x4 about a month ago. Had no idea it had such a following. The guy I bought it from had thought the handbrake was a clutch, it has no brakes. I already bought pads. Question time. What is the best place to purchase parts for the 300? And best reference page for engine specs, such as valve lash. Also I havn't looked this over at all yet so I am unsure what I am getting myself into, does this have an adjustable timing chain tensioner. I have noticed the "clatter" that I see many people writing about. My E- start currently dont work but it fires in one kick so I cant complain, and it is relatively easy to kick compared to my XR600R. Also about how much compression should I have? Oil recommended? Diff fluid recommended? I dont intend on lifting and bogging it but what are some other useful mods? I know it also has different size tires front and back, where would be a good place to find new tires (weather checked bad)? I have so many questions. But hey if anyone has any questions on a Yamaha XS650 street bike I can help plenty, lol. Thank you in advance, so far I have enjoyed the maturity i have seen displayed on this group.
