Since this quad appears to be a good candidate to put back to work, I am gathering a few parts to make it functional. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it.
Those Terra Pro's were sweet, I loved how Yamaha was thinking of crazy crap back then. I was such a Tri-Moto fan, the 225dx and DR (with its temperamental reverse lever) were so awesome. Just a run all day blast. Then when they made this, it should have caught on more but I think it was ahead of it's time. You could mow with them, till, aerate, bushhog.. then romp around in mud! That cleaned up really nice, great job getting that Yamaha blue to shine.
Can’t find the live stream... from today 8-16-19. Loved it... thanks for the shout out... X 10. I was over the moon.. I still have a ton of questions.. but someday I win the meet n greet.. much love to ya brother. Again, thanks for all the love you sent to all That was watching!! I enjoy what you do and say.. how it’s instructional..thanks!!
The buckle side fender can be easily fixed by clamping a straight piece of wood or metal, then a bit of heat with a heat gun then clamp with a straight edge, done. Cheers🇨🇦
It work well if you are not in a hurry, but I have another method for the really stubborn cables. I took a video of the process last night, I have to see how the video came out and Hopefully it is helpful.
I was going to say that I saw a video of one of these and I saw that the high low was the right stick!!! So that other cable must be a locker for the rear end!!! Good score on the parts!!! But I have to ask when was this filmed? 64 degrees in the afternoon in August? Keep Rocking it out!!!
Why not utilize the high and low beam light switch by using two led cube lights in the typical headlight holes and then a small light bar in the center on the high beam. Just an idea.
GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!!! That is exactly what I had in mind just after shooting this video. I started to think about how much light an 18" bar puts out and realized I may not want to burn bushes all the time. definitely going to utilize the hi/lo beam function for two light options.
awesome you found a front clip! it cleaned up pretty nice I think. lower grill...make a custom one shaped like teeth and nickname it the yeti lol can't wait for the next video :)
No, no, no!!! You can't do this to me bro. I saw a CB radio on the bench at the start of the video. I am a CB nut, I need info! I need a video on that CB!!! :(
hahaha... great eye. I have been into CB radios since I was about 12 or 13. That radio on the bench is an old Sears Roadtalker, a Realistic meter and a Palomar 225w Linear. Group those with a 4' Firestick and it's what I run in the truck when driving up to the Ranch property. I have a whole tote full of SSB radios, other linears, base stations, D104 mics... the list goes on.
@@yourbeekeeper I keep checking ebay. Looking for something descent with SSB. But hard finding something I can afford. I have an old CB sitting in my office that I trash picked. I really should make a video of it. Be well my friend.

A little elbow grease and those front fenders look great. Nice job working your magic
Thanks! Appreciate the kind words.
*Nice to see you are going to put her back to work!*
I think it's going to be a great addition to the fleet.
Very nice plastic refurbish, can't wait for elrancho install!!!
I am going to make time to get a trip in this month. I am also going to bring it home so I can really sort through the details.
Glad to see you’re back to your old ways working on things inspiring us to tinker trying to catch up on the videos I’ve lost track of
I have been trying to get back into the shop more. I really do enjoy being outside and problem solving. Thanks for watching.

Good deal Steve!! Awesome job!! Keep em coming!
Thanks B-Diddy!!!!!!!
nice shop chair and the front clip looks good
The Saddle seat? That is supposedly an expensive chair...I wouldn't know, I picked it out of the trash. It's quite comfortable.
@@yourbeekeeper yep thats the one great trash find lol

I was thinking the same thing. I'm going to wait until it's mounted and all the bolts line up, then I'm going to manipulate it with heat.
Liking the cable lube w/funnel trick. I'm gonna use it. Thanks for idea
It work well if you are not in a hurry, but I have another method for the really stubborn cables. I took a video of the process last night, I have to see how the video came out and Hopefully it is helpful.
Looking good!
Thank Sir.
Nice man, I like to clean something up that I bought used, it looks good
Thanks Jan, It really cleaned up quite nicely.
Sweet that going to be a little Workhorse hopefully
Thanks what I am hoping for. Thanks Kevin.
It’s 113 here in Vegas... and I love it.. but I’m kinda wanting a fast forward to winter just to see her run again!!
We stay mid in the 60's 300 or so days a year. I am quite used to the mild weather.

I live in Northern California along the coast. Mid-60's is our temp about 300-days a year.
LOL a bike you were going to give up on when you first got it is now turning into a Beekeeper restoration.
ugh.... I know right. I have to shake my own head and my own self sometimes.
Wouldn't that be wild if that turned out to be the original fender off your Terra pro Steve? lol Wow it cleaned up great brother!
Now that would be a cool story. haha.

It's to nice for a ranch quad! lol Nice work bringing it back to life.
haha...I don't know about too nice, Give it a couple trips and it will be covered in dirt and mud.
It looks great! :-D
Thanks!!!!
Lower grille? Pshh... Custom push bumper more like it 😏
I agree, I'm going to bring this home on my next trip so I can have some time to really sort it out.
Good to see you. Great job as always! Blessings!!!
Thank you, Appreciate you stopping by.
Does your Break Free CLP smell like bananas? I love that smell. Ooh rah. LOL.
hahaha..yeah, I like the smell of it too.
When does the saw make its way up to the range too?
Looks like September. We are in fire season now, so I can't do any chain saw work or use this in the woods now anyway.
awesome you found a front clip! it cleaned up pretty nice I think. lower grill...make a custom one shaped like teeth and nickname it the yeti lol can't wait for the next video :)
haha... I like that idea about that open space.
