Hello all,
New here, and a new owner of a 2002 Baja 650 sports quad.
First off, nice to meet you all and I hope to get all my issue addressed with your expertise.
I bought a used 2002 Baja 650 on Tuesday 3rd Nov 2009: My first impression, man, this thing is huge. I have two other Hondas and this quad just stands out.
Back to issues, I got this quad knowing that it would require a lot of work. But I’m not complaining rather enjoying the rebuild. The ATV was crashed and it rolled over a couple of times. The front hand bar is kaput along with rear tire/wheel and axel, headlight. Now, I got all the controls off of the handlebar and will be buying a brand new handle bar from a local bike shop. After this, I would need your help.
#1
Where to find a good head light for this model? How much $$$$?
#2
I need to change oil. I do not see any dip stick! I see a large tank below the head light, I assume that it is the oil tank, how to flush it? Rather, do I need to flush the tank and the engine or just the engine? What brand and quantity oil to buy?
#3
Battery is digging its grave as well. Quote from local shop: $88, Looks awfully expensive for quad battery.
#4
I need some pretty big tires, the tires that came with it are pretty small giving very low clearance in the rear. What is the biggest tires that I can fit in to the factory rims?
I will report more issue on separate threads.
