Its white and I picked it up for 7,200 out the door thats including a helmet, gloves and goggles. Plus the tax and all that.
I havent ridden quads since I was like 13 Im now 26 and this thing is pretty nuts.
Whats your guys opinon on what mods I should do first? How about widening the track width on it, so its harder to flip?
The power for now is fine.

Personally I would gear down in the front if you trail ride because it is geared tall...I would get you some holeshots or other tires, adjust the shocks to where you like the ride, get an exhaust and get an HRC kit and the bike will be awesome...If you want it a little wider go with +1 or +2 a arms and a wider rear axle...The quad is awesome and just make sure you keep up with maintanance...I change my tranny and engine oil every 5 hrs along with other mainanace before every ride.

I change my oil a little more frequent than most guys I know that have a 450R and I do it about every 15 hours of riding. Which equals out to about one whole weekend of riding. I think every 5 hours is a bit drastic but it all depends on how long you want the engine to last I guess.

How easy are these things at flipping while turning?
Im just wondering how ***** to the wall I can go with this thing and not be scared of it flipping over on me

It's really up to your skill as a rider. I've never flipped mine while turning...(jumping is another thing [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] ) but I would say as far as the other 450's in it's class it sits pretty tall. A few adjustments on the front springs can fix this problem for the most part. If you're looking for stability in turns and better sag, I'd go with the Suzuki ltr450 or buy extended A-arms for the honda.

Some rider's add wheel spacer's to widen wheel base , but i've heard some of these same rider's posting about broken axle's,premature failure of wheel bearing and seal replacement's not to mention a few other problem's ; and most will swear it had nothing to do with the wheel spacer's ! Every quad/ dirtbike and car or truck i've ever owned were kept stock , but of course i don't ride sport quad's ; and i'm not into racing anymore so i don't need mods ! Beside's i'm to old for that kind of stuff anymore , and i love to just be able to get outdoors and enjoy life and nature. Changing the engine oil every 5 hrs does seem to much , unless you're into professional drag racing ; but what do i know i'm just an old man ! williebee.
