New user - 2006 HiBird Questions
#1
Hey all! I just picked up a '06 HiBird 200 ATV for my daughter to play with, and use around the shop. Seems like a pretty decent toy for the $200 I paid for it! 
Got a couple questions involving different areas, would like some ideas or advise of I can get it.
First: I need a shift lever. Seems to be a heel and tow shift. Mine is missing, so I'd like to locate another one.
Second: when in first gear, the whole bike pops and shudders like a gear is stripped (no mention of this by the seller, wasn't able to test drive before purchase). How involved is this to repair? I am a decent mechanic, but tearing into a transmission scares me! lol
third: after doing a little research, I have seen that this model may have come with an electric cooling fan? I have a switch on the left control bar, but nothing else. Is this necessary to have for slow speed operations, or will it overheat the engine too much?

Thanks for the read, hope to be able to return the favor in time!
