2000 Yamaha Big Bear 400 (YFM-400), 4x4, 5 speed manual, auto clutch, reverse and a *low* first gear, it tops out at 52-54 by GPS on the stock 25x10x12 and 25x8x12 tires. It is full-time 4x4 and does not have an hour meter, odometer or speedometer. It does have a push button start and a back-up pull start that works well. I know this because ATV batteries seems to implode about every 18 months.
It has a four year old Bear Claw winch from Gander Mountain but needs a cable, and aftermarket fog lights.
I am the second owner after buying it from my buddy in 2003, it was in the garage until 2006 and under a canopy until now. I have ridden it mostly around the yard and neighborhood, using it to pull the jon boat out of the water and towing the core aerator around the house. It has been in the mud once or twice, never over the axles, in snow a half dozen times at Christmas in KS and never under water.
The plastic is faded but in good shape, the engine is oxidized but it runs good. I adjusted the valves before Christmas last year and pulled the tank (plastic) and cleaned it, repaired the gas gauge and replaced the petcock.
I rebuilt the stock Mikuni until it finally failed, bought at least three used Mikuni's off Ebay over the years (most arrived with a jet frozen in place) and rebuilt those and finally said to hell with it. I bought a Chinese clone carb off Ebay. I will install a new battery, the current battery is at least four years old and not holding a charge.
It does not need anything except somebody to put it to work.
I would keep it even though I don't use it much but I have crap load of medical bills rolling in and something has to go...so NO TRADES unless it's cash.
2,100.00 OBO <<<< as long as it's cash!
