I have heard the rebuild procedure for the Hondamatic , first step is to clean the bike very good , then put an ad on Craig's List and be sure there is no trailer hooked up to it when some one test rides it
2003 Honda foreman 500 slippage???
Hey guys and gals,
Just a question about my 2003 Honda foreman 500
Yesterday I had the trailer hooked up and loaded a bunch of firewood into it( nothing more than I normally do)
And started to drive in low gear , the rear tire of the trailer was up against a rock, I tried to give it more has to see if it wouldn't roll over the rock like I normally do...all of a sudden as I'm accelerating, I hear what sounds like a winch being pulled on free wheel....like something was slipping....never heard anything like this before and have no clue what it is...I unhooked the trailer and went to get my other bike and as soon as I took the trailer off the bike road fine...my first thought was the gears in the front diff were screwed...any ideas?
