Just ordered from High RPM. Besides changing the oil (oil reccomendations?), what do I need to do when I get it?

 

Just starting reading this forum. Sounds like I should have ordered from Raceway. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

 

High rpm not a good place to buy from. Hopefully you get it and nothing is broken.

 

Got it put together today and everything seems fine. The plastics are a little disappointing; the back left fender sits way higher than the right.

Do I need to oil the chain?

And looking at the back, on the left there is a clear resorvoir with some type of fluid in it. What is this?

And what is the the correct amount of oil the engine needs; there are two numbers in the manual; one for diff and the other for engine; it only seems to need about 1/2 a quart.

 

get some chain lube at any m/c shop or wal-mart has it, the fluid is brake fluid for the rear disc brake, you can use 10-30, 15-40,20-50 all depending what the tempueraure where you live. the engine and transmission shears the same oil

 

You get the same ATV regardless of who you buy it from. The difference is the service after the sale and that is why Raceway has this market cornered. Raceway needs to go to China and change the quality issues the plague these poorly made quads. SEADAWG

 

And apply oil to the chain?

 

Well, I've probably been lucky so far. Aside from the fender issue, it seems OK. But the whole time I've been uneasy about not knowing anything about who I ordered it from; wish I would found this group before I ordered. Will definitely use Raceway next time.
