Why was going on with your ATV? A oil filter put in backwards on a Honda will stop oil flow.

Not a bad job but since your in there with it apart and a 2007 500 4x4 is a decent ATV,
I would change the valve seals and bore the cylinder and go one oversize in the piston.
That way you have a new top end.
Odd that a 2007 would need a top end so soon unless it has lots of miles or was drowned or ran with very low oil for a time.

Ok thanks. Actually it is a 2008 model with only 1400 miles on it ( sorry if a said 2007) . He was rough on It and he said he floded it. I bought it off him for 1500 and it has a 2 inch lift on it and ss ipt rims and 28 inch outlaws with a bunch of tread left and a warn winch and a big after market skid plate. But like I said the plastics aren't in that great condition. He said it just died on him in the yard and would not start back up. I took the carb all apart and couldn't find anything wrong with it but it would not start and it had good compression. So I got to reading on here about the spark plug cause I didn't have a good spark and so I went and got a new spark plug and it fired right up. And it didn't smoke drove a half tank of gas and it started smoking a little drove another half tank of gas in it and now smoking so bad that I parked it in the shed. It seems funny to me how fast it went to smoking. Think it could be something else? There's a bunch of oil in the muffler that ant being burned. It aslo has that honda tick but it is a hole lot louder than other honda atvs. Thanks
