guys check out my post a little below this.. has a link to all the new quads from honda the 2006 trx450r is tight!!!!! check it out i have the specs here for the trx


yes it has electric start as an option now


For 2006, the TRX450R is an all-new machine from the ground up, and features more power, sharper handling and an electric start option.

Features & Benefits

New for 2006

All-new engine is closely related to the CRF(R)450R and CRF450X.
Electric starter available for easy starting in all conditions.
Maximum engine rpm is 9850.
New 40mm Keihin FCR-type carburetor for improved engine response.
Forged slipper piston is lighter than a conventional design, revving quickly while maintaining excellent cylinder sealing and high-rpm power.
Compression ratio increased from 10.5:1 to 12.0:1.
New transmission ratios designed for racing applications and trail use.
Longer swingarm and new linkage ratio for improved turning.
New A-arms, knuckles and spindles for improved turning.
Stronger hubs provide improved rigidity.
8mm lower riding position for lower center-of-gravity, improved handling and rider feel.
Front suspension is lighter and features a new spring for improved bump absorption.
Rear suspension is lighter for improved handling and travel has been increased from 9.0 inches to 9.3 inches.
New airbox for improved airflow and increased power.
Air filter is 1.4 times larger than previous unit for improved airflow and power.
New exhaust system and free-flowing muffler increase performance while maintaining low noise levels.
New cylinder head porting features improved flow for maximum performance.
Lighter radiator features revised fin pitch for increased airflow.
New headlight shape for race-derived look.
Engine/Drivetrain

Powerful four-stroke 450cc liquid-cooled four-valve Unicam(R) engine is based on the award-winning CRF450R motocross and CRF450X off-road engines.
Compact, lightweight engine designed specifically for ATV usage is worthy of its CRF heritage.
Unicam valve train provides the light weight of a compact single-cam drive and the optimum combustion chamber shape for maximum power at all engine rpm.
Unicam valve train features a carburized single camshaft that directly actuates two 36mm titanium intake valves. The camshaft exhaust lobe actuates two 30mm steel exhaust valves via a forked, low-friction roller rocker-arm.
Electric start version features an electric starter that drives the clutch side of the crankshaft to provide superior lubrication of starter gears, and produce a narrow engine with a short, strong crankshaft.
Lightweight, compact, internal auto decompressor provides superb cold-starting and hot-starting operation.
Kickstart version incorporates ATV-type forward kickstarting for ease of starting and light weight.
Crankshaft is made of high-strength, low-carbon steel with carburized main journals for maximum durability at sustained high-rpm operation.
Cylinder head cover is made of magnesium to reduce engine weight.
Forged three ring 12.0:1 compression slipper piston is lighter than a conventional design, revving quickly while maintaining excellent cylinder sealing and high-rpm power.
Double-carburized connecting rod utilizes a big-end needle bearing for maximum high-rpm performance and durability.
Nikasil cylinder lining is lightweight and provides cooler and quieter operation for extended engine life.
Press-fitted steel spark plug pipe fits between forked exhaust rocker arms, further contributing to compact cylinder head design.
40mm Keihin FCR-type carburetor features four rollers on the flat slide, resulting in very light throttle effort, smooth operation, crisp throttle response and excellent rideability.
Carburetor features a throttle position sensor (TPS) that helps maintain linear response throughout the rpm range.
Twin-sump lubrication system separates the oil supply for the crankshaft, piston and valve train from the clutch and transmission. This ensures a cool supply of oil to the clutch, eliminates clutch and transmission material contamination to the engine oil, and reduces the amount of circulating oil and the required size of the oil pump.
Vertically split crankcases feature a built-in oil pump, reducing weight compared to a conventional design.
Left side countershaft bearing and axle carrier feature double-row bearings for added durability.
Exhaust system uses a lightweight stainless steel header and muffler.
Radiator is lighter weight and has revised fin pitch for improved air flow in all riding conditions.
Compact, flat radiator fan is lightweight and provides efficient cooling.
Gear-driven balancer reduces vibration and drives the water pump. Eight clutch plates provide the surface area necessary to handle the engine's massive torque.
Durable five-speed transmission with all-new lower ratios designed to match new engine power characteristics.

765cc? Well, I guess Big Red was once again not concerned about the title "underpowered." I do think they could be on the right track with the 450R though. It sounds like they've made some very nice improvements to it.

Wonder why?

Ok, I've more or less backed you up to this point, but you really need to lay off the snide remarks about the Rincon. You may feel it's a highly-inferior machine compared to the competition. At this point right now, I'd have to almost agree with you. However, it may be someone else's dream machine and they won't appreciate you saying these things anymore than I do. Please, seriously lay off.
