I just bought this quad and got it home and there seems to be no park or High there is only R N and Low. It only has 575 miles on it and looks like new. Am I doing something wrong? I didn't get a manual? I would appreciate any help you can offer! Thanks

I take it you can't get it to go into H or P? You have to push on the rear brake pedal for that shift. My buddies '05 500 and my '04 600 are that way.

Right, push the foot brake while you move the shifter and it will go farther forward into H and all the way back into park.

Brilliant, yes. Just went out and tried it. I have the same machine and I bought this one for my daughter and mine doesnt need the foot brake pushed. That's great, I thought I messed up and bought a problem. I depressed the foot brake and it works great.Thanks for your help.

Glad I could help! Such a simple thing really...the first time I worked on my buddies 500, i was ready to take the linkage apart wondering what was wrong. My '01 machines and the wifes '07 didn't require it and I didn't have my 600 yet so I hadn't run across it yet.
