Picked up this beat CraigsList special 2006 450R on the cheap earlier this week. I went to look at it knowing it threw the chain and cracked the left side case so it was leaking oil all over. When I got there it mysteriously wouldn’t start even though it "ran fine" in the ad. I thought that’s my kind of beater quad and loaded her up.

Here’s some pics

The plan is to freshen up the motor. I also see the rear axle bearings are shot. Luckily the plastics are scuffed but not cracked.

I currently own a Kawasaki 450 and had a Yamaha 450 years ago but this is my first Honda 450.

More to come as I have time
