Just picked up a 1989 suzuki king quad for 200$ Canadian. The guy couldn't remember why it was parked in the bush. Turns out it was just parked for no reason 💯

[@AdamSchumacher-le1bq]

Lol

[@MTOhRyan]

I bought my first quad because of you for $400 and you motivated me to bring it back to life.

[@2vintage]

Awesome! Good luck!

[@kylependleton1987]

what kind of wheeler did you buy? i have a 2001 suzuki king quad 300, best old quads ever built!

[@GEICO72]

@@2vintage where did you learn all of this stuff?

[@mineer-pg5sv]

​@@GEICO72he's probably self taught homie that's how all the best of the best are trained

[@stevejette2329]

Before stretching a seat cover or steering wheel cover, etc, let it lay in the hot sun for a half hour. Then it will flow and stretch so easy.

[@groundhog8148]

Some people just don’t get it they rather sell than fix just look 400 dollars and you got a good working ATV good job nice to see you bringing it back to life

[@Georgeolddrones]

Lovely job 😂👍🇬🇧

[@OldTimerGarden]

Even though I'm too old to tinker with such things, I do enjoy watching you fix them.

[@kevinalbers1084]

Never too old👍

[@user-fi3fx5my2s]

Hasn't been cared for, some people don't need quads or bikes. My opinion as a certified OHVrepair Master Technician. Your doing a great job working through these things. Impressed..

[@Johdan14]

I’m so happy your doing an eiger theyre so good please don’t sell that one I’ve got an 05 eiger 1,983 miles not a single problem

[@sirtango1]

I just saw part one last night and couldn’t wait for part 2! Great job!

[@bigjay6743]

There's no way that gasket chewed up that belt that was probably the original belt that's 20 years old.

[@stevenbrooks1243]

I've been running those Wanda tires. They hold up just fine then doing it for years

[@thebigguy8306]

No mice were left homeless during this project, they were all relocated. Great project, good job, your patience, and knowledge pays off. Somebody needs 1) a warehouse garage, 2) a lift

[@mike197243]

Hey next time you brush or groom Vinny keep a bag of his fur and leave some spread around under the cover of the ATV mower. Might keep the mice out... worked in my garden this summer

[@anthonygaroutte809]

27:55 you can actually see the mouse run away!

[@travissisk3860]

Heat those plastics up - will look much better

[@thebigguy8306]

@@anthonygaroutte809 😂😂🤣🤣that was only temporary

[@ronstewart4545]

Might want to sharpen the blades on that mower.

[@maciejz6914]

Should have taken the second bell off too to get the belt installed get the spring compressed get the belt onto it and then spin both things around Thats how we do it in the shop

[@DirtyDiezel]

I wanda some new tires!

[@lancejohnson9868]

I Wanda how long they will last

[@Claude-om9og]

You need to start calling the "land" the "graveyard." You're getting a pretty good collection out there!

[@rzl07375]

These little quads, the Eiger/Kingquad 400 as they are sold today, are badass little 4x4's. For a 376cc air cooled motor they are pretty dam fast.

[@stephenmoutafis5587]

They go faster than you think 100kmh downhill

[@MPDano]

A couple tips. Buy a harbor freight tire bead breaker, I even use mine on car wheels. That way your not relying on a shop. Use dish soap to put tires back on. Use your heat gun on your seat vinyl before putting in initial staples as it will get your cover tighter, then as needed while stretching for the rest of the seat. 😊

[@dmo848]

Love this quad. I want it. It's the big bro to my Ozark

[@troyminer7]

I have an Ozark 250 as well! It’s my first quad I just bought it a couple months ago. How do you like yours? I haven’t hit the trails yet

[@louisjohnsonjr.4934]

Use the heat gun on the plastics and itll bring back the color real good and it will look even better but great job Joe

[@johnferris4237]

Great video Andris. I love watching your “side jobs and stuff” videos. I thought you were energetic but your mom has just proven that she can certainly keep up…and maybe even challenge you.

[@feltonseigler7578]

You need a pole barn out there!!!

[@JohnDoesItAll]

I bought mine new in 2002 and runs like a Swiss watch😁

[@miggster324]

Great job with bringing it back to life! I have a Suzuki Eiger as well, with a foot shift.

[@Motoxr32]

I always paint the wheels before having new tires put on. Great job as always! Enjoy your videos!

[@accordinglyryan]

Nice job on this one! Came out great. I would've painted the rear wheels too lol

[@baybuoy3843]

The part number / writing on the drive belt should face outward when installed properly . I think you may have installed it facing inward. Good job with the repair / cleanup! .

[@mikecorrado4971]

You did a great job restoring that quad. Glad it turned out so well for you.

[@rockinrodney66]

Love your channel brother I'm a bike technician too. You take every project from top to bottom. I have taught that way of repair for years. Can we watch you do a Harley Davidson. That wold be awesome Thanks for all the great shows

[@Icerackett]

ive got a 1998 arctic cat 300 4x4 that i got from my grandpa that he got at an auction a couple years ago, didnt run and we got it fixed, been having issues again lately so ive done a carb swap and getting new fuel lines cause its sucking air so then i can get to running it again, been a good project for me so far

[@sharonwhelan2471]

for the seat you can use what is called scrim foam in either 1/4 or 1/2 thick and spray glue to attach it to the old foam before attaching the cover it will look way better with no lumps, also make sure to use stainless staples

[@travharrell1713]

The best way to restore the plastic. Take a rag or paper towel and your old oil from your last oil change. Paint down your plastic. It will take a couple of days to soak in. I had to do mine 3 times to get it where it wouldn't soak in any more. Then wash it off with light soap. It looks brand new and not damaged like from the heat gun method. I discovered this by spilling some oil on my plastic. I guess if you wanted to go "High Dollar" you could use new oil. 😄

[@chrisbigbendgarage634]

Get you a couple bars of Irish spring soap, cut them in half and throw them on the mower deck under your cover, mice can't stand the smell of it, that's how I keep them out of my boat and camper when they aren't in use

[@alexandreblanc2842]

Thanks, great share ! You are an inspiration, showing that some many things can be done. I learn a lot with your videos, and practice on my ATV's maintenance, and more (rebuilding a trailer right now as well, with disc brakes etc) and I'm no mechanic at all :) Wouldn't touch a rebuilt or piston stuff yet, one day maybe :D

[@greathornedowl3644]

Good job, got it running, sounded nice

[@user-ep4zg5jl5m]

Spray glue a trash bag to the foam on the seat and its 100% easier to stretch the cover. Also just a personal preference but for a little bit more money you can get a much nicer cover made by Enjoy.

[@kobybear08]

WANDA NEVER LOOK SO BETTER OR FELT SO MORE MAGNIFICENT, NOW HELP ME WANDA GET THAT MOUSE NEST OFF THE MACHINERY. lol. Great Work Joe., watching you mow the grass got me wondering how the mice might attack the rest of the equipment out and about, time to build that Man's Mansion Man Cave Super Storage Shop UPON The Land and tell the Mice they are Not Welcome.

[@jsvallee567]

thats a great quad for work / hunt !!! nice video once again !

[@mitchz.6234]

Nice job and fix Joe!!! We put down moth balls down for the mice, works great.

[@brentwithers4584]

I’m glad it worked for you man I wish I could buy them and fix them like you can but I’m not that talented I went and bought me one 2 days ago for $500 but it needs a new carb bc the float is messed up but it should be here soon but Ik how to fix the carb lol but I’m happy for you man👍

[@eltonwhite8490]

try Maine Cycle Salvage in Mechanic Falls Maine they have warehouses full of every kind of parts you can think of

[@dennis82468]

Driveway is looking sweet

[@markbell7573]

Another great video and great deal on that quad. Not sure if anyone else noticed but I think the rear rims might not be the right ones for that quad. The tires look to far in from the edge of the rear plastic and too close together from the back. With that solid rear axle the rims should probably have bigger negative offset. I just went through the same thing with a Big Bear 350 I bought and fixed up. Otherwise it looks GREAT!

[@lennyrogers9319]

Great channel. It’s motivated me to get everything I own in 💯working order. Bravo Joe & Vinnie

[@MrNatureboy2010]

Great video ! You did super good on the buy and getting it running. If you still need the side piece , I have access to the right side cover. I'll give it to you if you still need one for making the vid.

[@clintferguson8328]

nice but you should have painted the back rims as well would have looked better but a great job and a great bye 👍

The OCD in me wants you to fix the holes in the plastic with epoxy, Joe. 🤣

Why, he has a plastic welder?

[@dannylim3318]

I thought the plastic welder put in staples? Can they fix 3 inch holes?

If you end up keeping that bike. Them tires are pretty good. Have used that brand in the past. Have had great luck with them for the money.

[@jcgaitley3091]

For the mouse issue try using peppermint oil around the tent to keep them away

Love it dude! Satisfying videos . I wish I had your tools 😂

I think maybe the dealership could get the cover for the side. Pretty good 4x4 well after all your labor and new parts Paint the back wheel too!

[@wilfor03]

Great job and got lucky on that one....

Nice job........ lil tip when I do covers on boats is I put the material in an oven @ 125 degrees for 10 min.'s..... easy then..

Moth balls are good for keeping the mice away. Put a bunch around / on the mower to see if that helps.

Great job on a good machine. There's a lot of life left in it for sure.

[@richardjyoung4093]

You are a pro at this.Goid job!!!

[@WIDESIDE72]

Another good example of how one man’s trash is another man’s treasure. Good job! I do have to wonder why you didn’t hit those wheels with a wire brush and argent silver paint BEFORE mounting the new tires.

[@coyotiess]

Great job looks good runs good all is well!

[@Steelman84]

You should build you some leanto sheds out at your property to store all your equipment under. Dont want to see it go back to how it was before you fixed them up lol.

[@Johdan14]

I got a 1974 rm I gotta mess with literally top end that it’s the bottom is so good still I’m excited

Well done. Goes. Like. The. Clappers. Good deal ...!!

Good video! Any future plans for the Airboat!!

[@user-fi3fx5my2s]

When you stretch middle hit it with heat gun or hair dryer, it'll allow it to seat on foam better.

[@joeclark9042]

Well I got to say very good video it's outside not a lot of talkin not a lot of laughing the guys getting the job done in their rates a little bit which is good very very good video I like this video a lot better than any of the other ones good job dude

[@tedpope517]

Where do you find deals like that? I live in Florida and it’s easier to find a gator in your pool than it is to find the deals you do.

[@Candi_gaming]

I have the same with that quad however I pay $4,500 for mine. I had to also replace the belt when I got mine. There is a little nut in the bottom of of the housing is there to drain any water that will get in period in the front of the Quad you will notice the air vent in the top Front plastic that vent goes down and through the housing of the bell and out through the back of the Quad to keep it cool that's how water sometimes will get in there and that's what burns the belts out. I have rebuilt it from the ground up I ride it every day pretty hard I have no complaints it is however a cold-hearted Beast I usually start mine and let it idle for a few before I take off on it also the 4 by 4 sometimes need adjusted there is a nut at the bottom that you just adjust just follow the cable underneath you will not miss it the best way to test to make sure the 4 by 4 is engaging and disengaging right is to put the back wheels up in the air and put it in four-wheel drive they should not turn because the front wheels will be on the ground stopping them then put it into wheel drive and turn them and only the back wheel should turn it is important to listen to make sure the front is not clipping on the PIN that makes it go into four-wheel drive this is where you will have to adjust the nut you don't want it to be clipping I will eventually mess up the four-wheel drive it is hydrostatic it is a very good quad though in a very good motor. If you have any questions please feel free to ask me I am a professional on this quad nowadays. I like that you do this and teach people that's awesome wish they had KZbin When I was a Youngster good work keep it up bud

[@Motoxr32]

Another option is flipping commercial zero turn mowers. I do that ALOT!

[@therichie9916]

I would hold my head high if i had that quad to ride in my area!

[@mikeboring1293]

Great deal with a lil work, here in Ohio people have 4 wheels that look worse or engine / trans issues asking $1000 or more. I picked one up a Honda 300 for $700 guy said it ran fine drove fine. Got I home started running thru a few days later opened garage both rear tires flat left front soft tried to start it dead battery when I filled the front tires noticed a bungee cord around the tie rod took it off tie rod fell off 😂. Jacked it up to take tires off ball joints on both sides bad jack up the back seen something that didn’t look right swing arm bushing gone I’m surprised it didn’t fall off. Ok got all the parts put them on including new battery. Fired it up sounded good, took it out side rode it for about ten minutes noticed it was smoking rode a lil more and more smoke. I used it just to hall my deer last year, about month ago did a top end rebuild. No more smoke runs good think I need to adjust the rockers

[@Brian-jz1pi]

Sounded like a lot of work.

[@_Gundy_]

I've had good luck with Wanda tires

[@mattrimmel9165]

just FYI there are threaded holes on the secondary clutch right next to the mounting nut u can use a clutch cover bolt to spread open the secondary this must be done to insure when u tighten the primary clutch nut u actually tighten the drive plate tight if you dont u run the risk of tighten the belt in between and it will run that plate loose and IT WILL strip on the splines of the output shaft..
