Smile atv newbie

hello everyone, just joined today, newbie to the world of riding atv's, just picked up a 2001 Yamaha yfm 400, not sure if its a big bear or not, still trying to figure that out. it's in great shape for its age, needs some work, but a good starter for me.

Welcome to the forums, Yamahas seem to be one of the most reliable machines.

If its an automatic, its a Kodiak 400. If its a manual foot shift, its a Big Bear. It appears that both used the same model name of YFM 400.

It has a foot lever to shift gears, and a high/low shift lever on top that doesn't work. Need to find a manual for it too
