quad guys.. need some help **she's runnin =)**
 

ok so heres the deal. my sister just broke up with her fiance (he had givin her a quad) but to our dismay, he would not give us the key.. sooo we have a little problem here. is there anyway possible that i could get a key from a dealer? or do i need to hotwire this bitch? and if so, how? but the thing is, theres no papers with the quad, or bill of sale... so i wasnt sure if they would just hand over a key.

its a Yamaha Blaster and we think its a 2002-03, but not positive. its got a few goodies, FMF pipe and silencer, some bad-ass tires, and a few other little things.

a couple of pics for you guys.....

so what you guys think? what year, can a key be had, or is it hotwire time?

Re: quad guys.. need some help
 

you should be able to stick your honda key in and fire it up, or try other keys. sometimes those ignitions will pass with other keys. maybe whitey will know.

Re: quad guys.. need some help
 

yea Whitey comes to mind when i frist saw this pic :1

if there are no BOS or anything i would sell it and keep the cash, tell him it`s stolen or somethin

Re: quad guys.. need some help
 

8hp of fury. god those things are the lame

Re: quad guys.. need some help
 

disassemble the ignition and twist the wires together.

then itll be just like any other dirtbike. fire it up when u kick it and kill it with the kill switch

Re: quad guys.. need some help
 

Its pretty easy, just look at the wires and you'll see what you need to do. Most people eliminate using keys anways.

Re: quad guys.. need some help
 

You cant do anything... Best if you sold it to me for $50 ... ^-^

Re: quad guys.. need some help
 

I had a blaster, its easy just get tot he back of the lock and disconnect the wires

Re: quad guys.. need some help
 

well i'll try the key thing like Travis said first.. but i'm sure i'll end up just cutting the wires or what not..

what where you trying to say? because i could use the advise.

Re: quad guys.. need some help
 

I guess what he's trying to say is... get the ignition lock out... take a good look at it, and connect it in the most logical way... kick it... see if that works...

shouldn't be so hard.

Re: quad guys.. need some help
 

ok guys so when I took the ignition apart there were two wires so what I did was hook them both together. So it should start right? But, it was a no go.
Is this all I have to do? Now I am going to hook it up to a switch and see if that works, but doubtful...

All let you guys know the outcome in 10 minutes. Till then keep giving me info.

Re: quad guys.. need some help
 

isn't it like you need to hold a brake to start it?

Atleast.. that was on my quad the case..

goodluck.

Re: quad guys.. need some help
 

dude i'm so ------ pist right now :7 this is total bullshit, i have no idea why this ------ thing wont start, ---- it was riddin just 3-4 weeks ago with no problems.. the spark plug looks good, it has gas, i know the wires gotta be hooked up right... ----!

i'll try the break thing t0n and see what happens.. this is total ------ bullshit, i'm about to go to the store and get an 8 foot piece of nylon rope for myself if this fucker dosent start within the next 20 min.. :7 :7 :7 :7

Re: quad guys.. need some help
 

dude, relax... it's just a quad... not end of life.

Eeuuhm... does the sparkplug fire?

it's like... so weird.. the only thing i can imagine is the key a sort of code in it... but that probably won't be the case..

Re: quad guys.. need some help
 

------ thing still wont fire.. i dunno dude, i just wanted to go riding this weekend and it looks like its not gonna happen :(

Re: quad guys.. need some help
 

----... post pics of the key-ignition... or however it's called in english....

Re: quad guys.. need some help
 

the key doesnt have a code or anything for a blaster and you dont have to hold the brakes or anything..if you have those wires tied together and its still not firing the plug then i believe you have some other problems..try gettin a different plug off of anything just incase the ceramic is cracked on the inside of the plug and the spark is going straight to ground..it cant be anything too hard cause those bikes are suuuuper simple..keep us updated man..

Re: quad guys.. need some help
 

blasters are real simple man....when my buddy lost his key we were able to go to autozone and get a generic ignition switch and hook that up, i know on the blasters too it is real common for the ignition ground to come loose. take the seat off and look at the ground for the ignition make sure it is tight, thats happened to us a few times.....good luck

Re: quad guys.. need some help
 

I eliminated the key on my Banshee but I don't know if the wires are the same color as a blaster.

Re: quad guys.. need some help
 

dude, your sisters single now? hot damn! what about your mom? :y

Re: quad guys.. need some help
 

Jeff i'll hook you up with my sis next time your back in town.. my moms off limits though >:( :P

Re: quad guys.. need some help
 

ok so here is what i did..

when i took the ignition apart there where 2 wires connected to the key start. so i just pulled them apart(disconnected them)

http://img509.imageshack.us/img509/259/quad227yu.jpg

then what i did was just connect the 2 together, so its like a constant running loop.

the thing still wont start though. you think this is hooked up right? or is there another way of trying it?

Re: quad guys.. need some help **more pics**
 

Looks like you have done it right...

I hope there is no computer/box thing in it...

i'd say wank some fenders off.. and check if there is anything else connected to this cable..

Re: quad guys.. need some help **more pics**
 

could both wires be positive, and the frame the negative? :l

Re: quad guys.. need some help **more pics**
 

that would explain a lot.

Re: quad guys.. need some help **more pics**
 

grab a test light

Re: quad guys.. need some help **more pics**
 

Dont connect the wire just leave them off. Dont loop them together. then take the spark plug out and put the tip on the head and kick it, see if it has spark if it does put back in and have fun

Re: quad guys.. need some help she's runnin =)
 

welp i finally got this thing running like 5 min ago..
what i did was talk the hole god damn ignition apart(smashed that fucker :6), matched the brass fittings up and she fired up first kick. it does give you a little spark and scares you a tad :P but hey, atleast its goin..
i'm suprised it didnt start the way i had it, must have some code or maybe needs a limited amount of power to fire, ---- who knows.

thanks guys for all the input, it helped.

Re: quad guys.. need some help **she's runnin =)**
 

Pics ?:)

Re: quad guys.. need some help **she's runnin =)**
 

damn you got a free quad? looks like fun gl w/ that

Re: quad guys.. need some help **she's runnin =)**
 

Just replace the ingnition lock with a generic universal one from autozone for cheap. Or go jDm and buy a s2000 push button start on ebay.

Re: quad guys.. need some help **she's runnin =)**
 

yeah i definitely plan on doing that, maybe just even a toggle switch. i just wanted to rule out if the thing would even fire.

Re: quad guys.. need some help **she's runnin =)**
 

Noel, where are you guys keeping that thing at? Your grandma would be very upset with you doing lawn jobs at the neighbors houses ;)

Re: quad guys.. need some help **she's runnin =)**
 

yea on my 50 i always loose the keys and just riip out the ignition wires till i find my key, and if you want the bike killed just put the choke on or turn the gas off and let it run outta the petcock

Re: quad guys.. need some help **she's runnin =)**
 

I have my entire bike on a push button with extra long wires so when testing I can hide behind things in case something's going to explode. :l
