Yamaha Grizzly 450 4x4 external gear selector adjustment

[@robvannNS]

Thanks for the detailed adjuster information. I have a 2004 660 and find the two locking nuts can normally be accessed by removing just the side cover . The bottom ball joint thread was seized in the rod so it required heat to loosen so the black plastic cover needed to come off. It's important not to damage as it looks like the rod and ball joints are part of the entire shifter assembly.

Andy mechanic I have an 06 grizzly 660. Just replaced clutch and was riding and adjusted left brake lever, it seemed to make the bike not go into low and a hard time with most really.. I don’t see how they are really relevant. I made adjustments as you did in the video, it helped temporarily I’ll have to give it another go

[@randyvink]

The 700 Grizzly is almost the same setup....Thanks for the help

[@julieForrester-i2v]

Just done this with my grizzly 450 irs, made a big difference just wants the rod fine tuning, goes into park and reverse every time

[@laurensgarage211]

All the Way from Texas want to give you a very big Thank You. I have a couple of the kind bikes with these shifters and this was a big help in seeing how the adjustments are made. Really enjoy your helpful work in your videos . Have a blessed new Year.

[@billalbion]

My 450 was new Oct 2016 and has the same low gear hesitation since new, not as bad as one in post. I engage low then slightly blip throttle to engage then drive away. First service due in April and had intended to mention this, but I may have a look myself. My bike is well oiled including gear linkage at 900 miles. Thank you for most informative posts

[@AndyMechanic]

+billalbion Hi, thanks for the feedback, pleased you found the video helpful. The adjustment is relatively easy though I found that only a very small change in the rod length made quite a difference to gear selection so just make fine adjustments each time until it engages smoothly. Cheers Andy

[@jabroski69]

Yeah mine I have to goose the throttle to engage it in gear. But also coasting down a hill sounds like my gearbox starts clinking

[@benoitprimcity3225]

Seems exactly my problem with the Kodiak 4x4 but that adjustment did not fix it. The end selector works well and all light correlate. So I’ll open the gear selector to seek inside.

[@RenBobbins]

This saved my life. I have the exact same problem in my wife's 2012.

[@mrabiff113]

Andy, Thanks for the vid. It will help me a lot. I'm interested in how you had the bike on the lift. Did you just stradle the lift with the bike? Did you put anything under it like wood blocks or just let the lift come in contat with the undersisde? I have a 2000 Kodiak and am hoping I can lift it like you did the one in this vid.

[@AndyMechanic]

Hi, I usually use wooden blocks so I can still get the oil drain pan in for when doing an oil change. One at the front & another just forward of the rear final drive, timbers going across the hoist bed. Cheers Andy

[@mrabiff113]

@@AndyMechanic Thank you.

[@bilstein2410]

My issue with my Grizzly, is when you put it in park, the indicator light doesn't light up. No light on the dash means it won't start. This helps me understand the adjustment

[@FYMM69]

Excellent video. My 2007 grizzly 700 you really have to keep pressure on the shifter then bump the throttle to get it to go into low range. Every other gear shifts perfect. Wonder if this linkage adjustment would cure it

[@AndyMechanic]

Definitely worth a try. Thanks Andy

[@wynjones1033]

Another great video Mike. This is something I need doing on my MOD 450 Grizzly. Thanks

[@dougpatterson7119]

That was a great video. I have a 01 Kodiak and I can't get it into reverse. I think it is the brake do hicky that is preventing it from moving backwards. I do wish you had spoken more about that. My question is, what if I eliminate it physically. I can appreciate that I won't have any indication as to the gear I'm in but I don't care.

[@jonathanbonney1655]

I’m having the same issue but it’s doing the clicking and refusal to go into gear at all positions. Would that be just an adjustment like this or does it sound like more of an internal problem? Also, once in gear, it won’t stay in place unless hand brake is held. Almost as if it’s idling too high or something.

[@AndyMechanic]

Yep. Check idle, if too high then centrifugal clutch will be dragging which will make it hard to engage gears & bike will be driven even when completely off the throttle. Just reduce idle at carb & see if that helps. Cheers Andy

[@allenr265]

My Grizzly 700 is a 2009, and is stuck in park. I always used the foot brake to sift. So that interlock cable is also attached to the foot brake and hand brake lever? I'm a little confused sorry? Any insight. Thanks Mate 😊👍

[@petropete3122]

Tks Andy. I have to do this to my 700 Grizz tomorrow.

[@wynjones1033]

Hi Andy, Quick question!!!!! Can I use any 10W40 semi synthetic oil for my Grizz 450

[@AndyMechanic]

Hi, it really should be a motorcycle oil as the transmission relies on good lubrication too & car oils are designed just for engine demands. My preference is Yamalube which is Yamaha's own oil. Hope this helps. Cheers Andy

[@carll.freemanjr.9867]

1998 yamaha grizzly 600, won't take reverse at all, won't even enter the position for it. It will go back toward it 90% of the way but then it's like you just hit a wall. The brake cable that runs to the safety release could be potentially frozen up, can there be other problems or if it is the cable can that be bypassed?

[@christopherspanke296]

Hey man! Thanks for the video.. quick question, in the beginning there was some knocking noises once you lifted the bike off idle. Did the adjustment help that as well?

[@danemacveigh7331]

I have a 2013 Yamaha kodiak that gear shifter freezes in the cold. Thoughts? Once the bike warms up the shifter works fine.

[@ajwhatcnt3442]

Hey Andy my bike is hard to get into neutral well it is in neutral but the light doesn't come on and doesn't start I have to run the gear leaver up and back and sometimes it will turn on neutral light and can start it but then once it is hot and stops and try to get that light back on to start, no chance I can seem to get it going again would it be what your talking about or could it be some electrical fault senser or something that's causing it thanks mate let me no please Andrew qld Australia

[@thomasswiderski6202]

Good youtube wish I would have seen sooner. I have adjusted as far as will go and still hesitates into low looks like I have to check gear box

[@AndyMechanic]

Possibly. Just ensure the rivets holding the two rose joints on the external link rod haven't come loose Also, it the idle too high - this will cause the centrifugal clutch to start to transfer drive so will be harder & jurky to get into gear Hope this helps. Cheers Andy

[@eddiebehan-kitto9971]

Hi Andy are the 450 and 550 quad selector arms the same lengths

[@the_ltz_guymaster7912]

I have a lady selling a 04 kodiak 450 4x4 she says it needs a new shifter bar because u have to adjust it softly put it in gear and it will stay she’s asking 2600 I have 2800 too my name is it a quick easy fix ?

[@AndyMechanic]

Yes, the external shift linkage is easy to replace & not too expensive for replacement parts :-) Cheers Andy

[@EastCoastScott]

Andy, I'm not sure if that particular year of bike has this problem, but from 03-07 on the 660 the shifter is slightly different but I imagine are similar internals. Either way, I had to do this for a friend before on an 04 660. Take the shifter assemble off the bike, leaving the shift rod connected, just unbolt shift rod from the motor and there are 3 bolts on the shifter that hold it on and the brake interlock for reverse and park just unscrews. Take the shift knob off and then the boot. Once you have that done, on the opposite side of the shift rod there should be a push nut/speed nut that goes over the shaft that the shifter and shift rod are connected to that needs to be removed. You will probably break that push nut getting it off but once you do, pull the shaft out of the assembly and you will notice that it is square stock with rounded edges that insert inside the plastic housing of the shifter. This is where the problem arises, normal wear causes too large of a tolerance and thus causes the shifting problem, solution is to take a pepsi can or similar and cut a small piece off to go over the shaft you just removed and reinsert into the shifter. (keep notice as to location of shift rod before you removed it. Once you do this, assembly is reverse of disassembly. Bike should shift better or as good as it did new. Did this 8 years ago the first time, never had a problem since and never had to adjust the shift rod length fist or last. Hope this may help someone as it took a bit of time to find out when it would have just slipped out of position when the locknuts never moved...

[@AndyMechanic]

+Scott Barron That's excellent advice, I'm sure plenty of viewers will find that very helpful. If I get an older 660 come in to the workshop I'll be sure to do a video covering your fix. The later one I worked on had rose joints either end of the external shift rod. Customer had said that it had always been a little hard to engage low gear but it had got worse in recent months? No wear at the rose joints so can only think the motor has settled down on its mounts maybe (can't remember if it's rubber mounted like vikings or not to be fair?) Anyway, thanks for taking your time to write such a detailed post. Pleased you liked the video. Cheers Andy

Yes, there is a neutral light switch on the gearbox, the brass plunger will have worn down - will need replacing...that's the most likely reason so check that first. Cheers Andy

Hey Andy. Nice video and explanation. I’m in Canada just north of Toronto. My quad is a 2013 chironex 550 bandito which I believe is a Chinese knock off of Yamaha. Engine looks like Yamaha. Only 620 km on the bike. Forward hi and lo engagement no issue. Reverse on the other hand has always been a “clunking” engagement and takes several attempts to get positive engage. When not fully warmed up it’s not uncommon for it to jump out of reverse when increasing throttle. Gets better when fully warmed up. Do u think it’s the shift selector rod needing adjustment. I’ll be a subscriber.Any thoughts..Thx in advance for any advice u could could provide. Keithkmrg

[@AndyMechanic]

Hi Keith, damn I hate it when the Chinese copy other brands. It's just not right as Yamaha did all the development work etc. Anyway, yes, this could well be an external push rod adjustment issue. However, if you over adjust it you may affect low ratio selection at the opposite end of the gear levers travel. Just make small adjustments and see how you get on. Welcome aboard :-) Cheers Andy

+Michael Winkelsas Hmmmm.....unlikely to be external linkage but check all pivots are lubed and move freely. You may have to adjust a little or it could be low or need an oil change?

[@larrymattox2471]

Make sure your idle speed is not too high. They don’t like to change gears if the belts are moving too fast. My 2006 Grizzly 660 needs to idle between 1450 and 1550 rpms. Anything higher (above 1800 rpms) and it is hard to come out of gear and bangs when it does.

[@aaronhughes9691]

2003 kodiak 450 the shift lights won’t work all the time when shifting what is the problem

[@AndyMechanic]

Hi, well it could be a number if possible faults. Firstly & most likely, there is a switch on the side of the engine that has a rotary type contact pad. These can wear out like in an ignition barrel. So I'd unplug it from the loom and test it with a multimeter or test light - you'll need a wiring diagram. If this turned out okay then bridge the wires one at a time in the plug on the loom - you should see each gear light illuminate with each wire bridged. If not then could be a loom fault or possibly an issue inside the dash. Let me know how you get on. Cheers Andy

Hi Andy, I’ve just bought a 2007 Yamaha Grizzly 450 from the UK MOD and am in the process of trying to give it some well earned TLC. One/Two problems I’m experiencing surround gear Selection/Engagement. (1) Occasionally when trying to select REVERSE the gear fails to engage and I get a clattering sound/shuddering. That said if I then select DRIVE HIGH followed by REVERSE, the gear engages. Do you think this is likely to be a External Gear Selector issue or Internal? (2) Possibly connected to Item 1. The Gear Indicators on the Display often don’t show which gear is selected. Any thoughts / suggestions? Regards Stephen
