What piece was broke? Part of the carb body itself?

 

Not totally sure but my neighbor offered him $2000 for it so its gone now and hes a happy camper. My friend now has purchased a new honda rancher. Said he will never own another yamaha. Just to many issues and stuff like changing carb designs every year or two is ridicoulous. Ive had hondas in past and never had any issues like he experienced with Yamaha. Live and learn i guess.

 

Honda hasn't changed anything in years-that is why they are behind in the ATV industry!
