Figured I would post this up here, since it's something that I like to have on all my machines. I picked up a used Foreman 500 (05-11) brake master cylinder and brake lever, which has two micro switches built into it. This is for an 05 350 Rancher, which has one microswitch on the stock brake lever for the brake lights. You hook those wires onto one of the two microswitches on the Foreman brake lever, and hook a relay up to the other microswitch for the start in gear mod. Grounded wire goes to swtich on brake lever Wire coming off of other side of switch on brake lever goes to relay 85 Black/ brown wire coming off of 15A lights fuse goes to relay 86 Relay 87 is grounded Snip wire going to neutral light Relay 87A goes to neutral light Relay 30 goes to wire you snipped off that used to go to neutral light. This allows you to start the machine in gear, but only with the brake lever held back. Will still start in Neutral with the lever held back or not held back (as normal).

Bryan hasn't been on the old forum for 8 days.

Anything we can do to help Retro?

That looks amazing fish. All of it. Those chargrilled oysters are awesome. I like the bienville too.

You find a sending unit Shade? Looks like this guy won't be using his. https://www.hondaatvforums.net/threads/replaced-gas-tank-in-my-1987-trx350d.130978/#post-1305476

I was off Thursday and Friday, but took a vacation day Wed and part of the day Tuesday, so I've was out of work most of the week. Spent that time just north of Atlanta is the suburbs. Huge number of pretentious, arrogant jerks. I despise going but we go there for Thanksgiving so they come to us for Christmas. Interstate in Birmingham was closed due to construction so the trip went from 7ish hours to over 9. Let's just say I'm glad the week is over. LOL Sam, around here Turkey, Ham, dressing, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, green bean casserole, rolls, and as mentioned, lots of pie. Eat till you're miserable.

I agree that we shouldn't just post it. They did the work. As far as I'm concerned it is theirs to share as they see fit. I have a few saved to my computer than I can email to folks if they happen to be the one needed, but I'm not computer savvy enough to make a drop box or anything like that, and not sure how well files this size will email.

That's the way I understood it. My buddy's wife's PS Rancher has had the light on for quite a while (his kid hit a pole with the right front wheel and jacked it all up). I looked at the directions and from the way I interpreted it, the screwdriver is meant to space the steering out a hair from being bottomed out to begin the re initialization.

LOL. Yall remind me of us Arkansas fans saying "Well we had more yards than they did" when we lose a game and are trying to justify the idea that we're better. It will be settled on the field well enough. I guess #1 will get to play the 4 seed, so there's a little benefit to being 1, but I think ultimately LSU and OSU battle it out for the trophy this year, and when you get that point none of this other stuff matters. If LSU thumps Georgia I think they'll jump to #1, regardless of what OSU does.

I will say basfnb’s Rancher needs the same reset done to it, so this is info I need to follow as well. This is why I don’t have PS! Schmancy stuff breaks!

As I understand it, you need someone to hold that screwdriver in place as sort of a spacer to start the process. Once you move the handlebars off of it it doesn’t matter if it’s still in there. That right @toodeep?

To me, if these new units perform they would be worth more (again, to me). Replacement parts will be available for the new units. If you have a DGL and the clutches wear out you’re SOL

Nice! Love the tan 300’s

Spanish Moss grows in coastal areas in the South. Gotta be something different up in the Dakotas.

I’ve run quite a few. Like the Mudbugs the best. They pull well, are light, and are smooth riding. i currently have Bugs on 3 bikes (28’s on a 500, 27’s on another 500, and 26’s on the wife’s Rancher AT). Have some 29.5 outlaws I’m going to run on a 300. That’s next on the list, going to stretch rear and use a 54% from SamUK. Daughter’s 350 Rancher had 26” Vampires on the front, Swamper blems on the rear. Seem to pull well, but haven’t run them much yet. Other daughter’s 300 has 26” Mudlite XL’s on it, and now I’m a bit worried about them after what Mac said. Have 27” Executioners on another 500. They wear like iron but are heavy and tend to dig more than the Bugs. Not bad but the Bugs are much better for the same price. i’ve gotten rid of Mudweisers, Swamp Lites, regular Mudlites, 589’s, 489’s, and Anclas. Nothing pulls like an Outlaw, but the Mudbugs are cheaper, ride a LOT better, so other than the 300 Mud Toy I’ll be buying Bugs going forward.

Awesome! Need some competition to drive the price down!

Welcome Duck. Here’s your 350 parts guy @shadetree How’s the hunting up your way Duck? I haven’t been yet. Looks like it might be lot better than last year.

We have a link on this forum yet for the factory service manual PDF downloads? i know it was taken down prior to this place coming online. We have a link to it? I’m on mobile and had the old link on my desktop at work

Interesting. I always run a little heavier than 50:1. I figure spark plugs are cheap and I’d rather be over lubricated than under.

I got a 346 right after they discontinued them. Didn’t want “auto” anything on a chainsaw. Guy had two on the shelf. After running mine for a couple of months I called him and asked if he’d give me the same deal on his other one, and he said no. Waited another week and decided it was worth his marked price and he’d sold it during that week, Love the 346. Fish if you look around you might be able to find a nos unit sitting on the shelf at a small town Husky dealer

Yeah the wires in this one were all eaten up from mouse pee. Guess I need to fill that box with moth balls if I can get ut going again?

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. I’m in surburbs of Atlanta. Too dang many people here but we spend Thanksgiving here and that means I get to stay home for Christmas so it’s worth it

I am discovering that the third row in the wife’s GX460 isn’t meant for adults. 7.5 hours so far. My knees are killing me! Wife gets carsick back here, and her aunt and dad are too old to get back here so that leaves me. I need a DRANK

I was posting that more as a reference point for price than anything else. While I haven’t had any issues with the few interactions I had with him, one of our regulars here got hosed by him on a build. Another source would be a wise decision

Lol. Yeah it’s out, and sitting on my shelf. Was on my to-do list before baby arrived. I’ll take some pics when I get back to town after thanksgiving. Headed to the in-laws now As for running several fridges, the only time she’s used it we would rotate the fridges and freezers a couple at a time. As long as you leave the doors closed it was enough to keep everything cold/frozen.
