    This is kinda funny, I noticed you jamming the gear shift down to get it in neutral to start, my Big Bear 400 I purchased in 2003, over 20 years ago now, just learned like two day's ago, it will start in gear while applying the hand brake!

    Nice, I just started working on my old 2008 big bear 400 that has been sitting for 10+years. It's crazy how at first it all seems like a big mess but once I got in there, I realized it really only needs new calipers, carb, rear right axle, maybe some new wheels/tires and it's good to go. I thought this project was gonna take me forever or cost a ton of money but I got all the parts I need for about 140$. Figure I'll have it slapped back together in a week or so. fingers crossed lol.

    Sounds awesome, man. I’m sure you know this already, so don’t let me insult your intelligence… My two cents: Do your best to clean the original carburetor as opposed to replacing with a knockoff carburetor. Definitely worth the time, seems like guys really struggle to get the aftermarket ones tuned just right. Let me know if I can help at all. Glad to hear another machine is in the process of being rescued. Best of luck and thanks for watching.

    Quick question if you have time, i have a Big Bear 400 4v4 2007, just trying to find where the "neutral" wire plugs in because my neutral light at times is difficult to come on and i think that might be a connection issue.

    That rear carrier tube is bent because someone used it to pull something instead of using the tow ball.

    Cleaned it aggressively with a brush, some spots with a scotchbrite sponge. Then got it set in the sun and sprayed some SC1 New Bike In a Can spray and let it soak in. Then put it in the shade a put another good coat on. Amazing how much it restores the plastics.
