I gatta give it to rock man he sure knows how to diagnose an find the couse of the problems an fix it all correct !!!! I do the same and it does take a few years to get this good at it
Great video as always. Some of the most fun I had was working on an absolute pile of junk lt230 quadsport with my dad when I was a kid. I'll never forget the day I finally got to ride it, I went all the way down the street and back in first gear because I was afraid to stall it and it would never start again haha. Good to see you just help out without taking cheap shots at anyone. Keep up the great work!
Absolutely love these videos and grizzlies are my favorite machines. It really does sound like a top end knock- i was really hoping that the valves were out of adjustment. It certainly seems like you have to open up the top end of the motor to go forward with trying to fix it. Keep up the awesome content! Cant wait for the next video
I’m glad you enjoy these videos! The grizzly’s are one of my favorites as well, although I prefer the 660’s and 700’s. Still waiting to hear back from the owner, but once I do I’ll get right back to it.
I bought an 01 600 brand new- now i have 2- 660’s and i have 2 more 600’s that need attention. These machines are to the point where they need the clutches looked at, new diff seals, carb cleaning, new wheel bearings and they should be ready for another 20 years of service with regular maintenance.
Look at the cup piece behind the recoil assembly. Loosen the bolt that you were turning to find top dead center. I had a very similar noise on my big bear engine. It drove me nuts, i tripple checked everything and couldn't find were the noise was coming from. Im guessing previous owner used an impact or overtightened the crank bolt for the recoil. I backed it off a hair and the noise went completely away. Its either that or it could be a blocked oil passage on the head since they went a little overboard on silicone.
Deffinately some engine noise ! Interested to see what it may be , should the customer want to tear down . Finishing up a rear axle hub rebuild & drum breaks (front & rear ) on my daughters Trx 90 . My warrior 350 will be coming in Nxt for pre season chk over & oil change , anxious to get on the trails here in Maine . Expected trail openeing May 15...& now snow coming this Sat ....lol Enjoy you're content . 😎
Yeah, still waiting on the direction they’d like to go. Sounds like you have some work cut out for you.. those drum brakes tend to rust and stick in there pretty bad. maybe not as bad with the trx90, probably doesn’t see as much mud and water as a lot of the Honda 4x4’s I’m use to! I’m ready for the Atv trails to open as well but ours open around the same time as you. I’m glad you enjoy the content!
That is terrible, but the frame can be welded. But the one thing that is overlooked is the father and son time, once complete, it will hold a higher value for the kid and a good learning experience too. On a side note, enjoy the sled weather!
I feel sorry for the kid !! It doesn’t take long to put a lot of money into fixing them !! I got burned once buying a used quad myself years ago and I spent more than the quad was worth
i was ganna ge thtat one for parts for mine and didnt. i am waiting for a headgasket at the moment cause a ehaxust stud broke off and cant get to it without head off.
Hey Rock I have a 94 250 timberwolf and I'm having a hard time finding a pinion gear for it everywhere I look they skip the 94 and 95 in the years they fit. I was just wondering what's the difference in the pinion gears because they say that 92-93 and 96-00 are the same but the 94 and 95 are different
Not questioning you at all just something that has happened to me in the past. Thanks for posting videos I aspire to be you and do what you’re doing lol!!
Absolutely man, always good to ask the questions just in case. I’ve had a bunch of machines act similar with a broken diaphragm, had a Kingquad not too long ago with that same issue. This one seems to be starving for fuel.
wow,just seems very high for sure from $1500 to $3400.as $1900 difference!!!damn at that price i could have bought a running and driving one for $1900.a lot on hard ware?didnt see any gold plating!!lol.and then the carb shop,again didnt see any gold plating on the carb!!!lol.i think they may be pulling your leg on this one!!js.
Sigh, used ATV's these days, so expensive and usually need a ton of work, sounds like worn cylinder wall from dirt intake maybe? I hope not for these guys.
@@rockspowersports always. I deleted tt it really wasnt good for my mental health lota depressing stuff on my fyp. And yet youd always make my dad better thanks for uploading
Honestly I’m not sure, this is just what I was told. It looks to be a new base gasket and head gasket so possibly a new piston and rings.. I know they said they spent a lot on hardware. Then they had a bill from the last shop they brought the carb to..
You're gaining momentum on the chanel dont stop now.
Absolutely! Thanks for the support and motivation!

At least you got one ride on it and had fun fixing it.
@@rockspowersports I rode it for years we just kept fixing as it broke. Those 230s were durable! Lol
Good video and the channel keeps growing. Keep it up.
Thanks! And yes sure is, i know you’ve been around for a while.
Great getting these videos. Im on nights shifts. Makes for good to watch yt

The Frame can absolutely be fixed and you know I did overlook that aspect of it. Father and son memories are priceless.
Arkansas Wavin
I bought a kawasaki Mojave once paid decent money for it. Next day going over it frame was broken a few places. Ended up just welding it.
Yeah they can always be fixed but it kills resale value on it most of the time.
I feel sorry for the kid !! It doesn’t take long to put a lot of money into fixing them !! I got burned once buying a used quad myself years ago and I spent more than the quad was worth
Love the vids bud
Thanks!

Any opinion on the
polaris scrambler xp 850 2019-2022 ?
Hey rock, love the vids! What do you think about the mid 2010’s Polaris 570’s considering purchasing one… GOOD OR BAD? Thanks!
As longs as they are maintained properly, the 570 is a good engine. Are you looking at a sportsman 570?
I know there’s an engine noise but why didn’t you check the diaphragm to make sure it was seated and not pinched?
I did, also checked the needle position just didn’t get it on camera i guess.
Not questioning you at all just something that has happened to me in the past. Thanks for posting videos I aspire to be you and do what you’re doing lol!!

Shame on the person that swindled this kid
wow,just seems very high for sure from $1500 to $3400.as $1900 difference!!!damn at that price i could have bought a running and driving one for $1900.a lot on hard ware?didnt see any gold plating!!lol.and then the carb shop,again didnt see any gold plating on the carb!!!lol.i think they may be pulling your leg on this one!!js.
It does seem high, I’m only relaying what I was told. Even at the original $1500 I would feel bad just due to the frame being broke.
@@rockspowersports yup i hear you,was just saying.no prob,love your channel either way!!!
I hear 600 grizzly I run I got a money pit of one in the back yard I just use for parts you have engine problems out of them just junk it lol
Sigh, used ATV's these days, so expensive and usually need a ton of work, sounds like worn cylinder wall from dirt intake maybe? I hope not for these guys.
Howdy duty from Indiana
Hey Jonathan glad to see you made it over here today!
@@rockspowersports always. I deleted tt it really wasnt good for my mental health lota depressing stuff on my fyp. And yet youd always make my dad better thanks for uploading
$3400 and counting with a broke frame.Feel bad for the kid...Buying used atv you never know what your getting..
Certainly feel bad for him!
1:24 have $3400 into it?damn what all did they buy if they only bought it for $1500?damn they are going to be buried in that thing!!!
Honestly I’m not sure, this is just what I was told. It looks to be a new base gasket and head gasket so possibly a new piston and rings.. I know they said they spent a lot on hardware. Then they had a bill from the last shop they brought the carb to..
