1 arm chic

Hey Y’all who’s ready for Fall weather? Finally got my 02 Foreman 450 S carburetor all lined out & running good but the front end was next on my list since my steering was tight+ way to loose at the same time where the handle bar was being yanked out of my hand from the smallest thing. That’s not the best way to ride when I only have 1 Arm 🤪🤪 Ran across 1 ! of a deal (maybe) I’ve been Test Driving a 2016 Rubicon 500 FM7 Deluxe. Wow that a HUGE difference & I’m kinda of intimidated of it. Going from a “plain jane” 4-wheeler to a upgrades feels like going from a 1980’s Pinto car to 22 Range Rover P530. I do like IRS rear ended except for it feeling wobbly & bouncing, I swear sometimes there’s a spring under my ! 🤪 I don’t know if I’m just not use to it or maybe the shocks are shot. Who else has/had or risen 1 of the newer Rubicons? What is y’all’s opinions on them? Have any tips, tricks Do’s & Don’t’s Are they any problems that are extremely common on them that I should be aware of? What about Axels? Do they get ate up fast? I had to replace the Right Front Axel I heard it popping but I rode it for a bit anyways. I’m hearing popping again but can’t tell if it’s the back 1 or the front again. I can’t Go Go Gadget my ear close enough Sorry for the extra long post! I will gratefully appreciate any info or feed back y’all wanna throw at me. It will help me making my finale discussion on if I’m gonna keep the 2016. THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!! 🤪🤪❤️❤️❤️❤️ P.S. He (original owner of 2016) knows I only have 1Arm so he wants me to make sure I’m comfortable riding it 1st! Heck I’ve “had” it for almost 2 months already That something only the riding community would do

Hey Guys 1st thing first I want to check in with any/All of our Floridan’s since Ian hammered y’all! I hope everyone is safe & sound. My prayers & love from Western Kentucky are with everyone!. Ft. Myers, Sanibel Island & surrounding area destroyed will be back better & stronger then before. I say that only because I’m originally a Floridan a Keys Kid raised in Key Largo during the 80’s - 90’s & Andrew ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I completely forgot to come back & give a update! Because she was finally fixed I was so happy & excited it completely slipped my mind. The problem was the E-Clip wasn’t keeping the Jet Needle in place so just had to squeeze the E-Clip together a bit more to make ir hold the Jet Needle ALSO The O-Ring in the Pilot Screw was out of place basically pushed up way to far inside. Very simple small problems with easy fixes, BUT very very easy to overlook, (or a hubby not listening to his wife (me) that researches & asks questions from a lot of extremely knowledgeable, years of experience working on their own, Die Hard Honda Riders)

Sorry for late response Definitely hadn’t been running right. Cutting out, backfire, dies if going slow through somewhat deep water. Not sure if it’s the snorkel, carb, exhaust. My hubby & I are not in agreement on what’s wrong with it. When he “test” drives it he doesn’t ride it like I do. He uses both hands & more throttle I on the other hand lol I definitely use less throttle because I feel I have a bit more control. This is probably a really dumb question but I’m asking anyways. I attached a throttle buddy to my throttle to help with hand cramps that wouldn’t cause any kind of performance issues?

Sorry for the extremely late response! A plug chart? Where can I find 1 of those? She’s running like dog crap cutting out, then runs great for a bit then like crap again. Any somewhat deep water she just dies unless I’m screaming through it (last time I did that there was a a big piece of rip rapp that my front wheel hit wrong & I went swimming lol ) Sometimes I wonder if hubby has it snorkeled right but not sure if it’s a carb, snorkel or exhaust problem. He’s 2012 Foreman 500 runs great but not mine lol I try really hard not to ! to much about it but…. I’m always the caboose the last 1 I ride so much slower then all of them hence only having 1 arm I guess I should torture someone to ride behind me to see if their eyes are burning 🤪🤪

This may be a dumb question but oh well. What are some tell tell issue that my carb needs to be re jetted? it’s a 02 Foreman 450 S Snorkeled from breather box 1 1/2in to 2 in then has a 1 1/2 in plug thing

So glad it’s just not me lol I’m the 1 that does all the research on figuring out the problems with my 02 Foreman 450 S & my Hubby does the work. I swear my job is harder then his.

I like the price from January better then in June lol it’s $349 now I’ve been needing a new 1 desperately but I never knew which 1 to get. Is this 1 quiet? I don’t want a real loud 1 that’s what’s actually kept me from buying 1
