I have a 99 foreman 450ES with 225 miles on it and I wanted to grease the zerts on the front wheels, but I couldnt force any grease in?? Should I not worry about it? I also have never taken apart the sealed brake drums in the front, should I be doing this? It seems to brake just fine so far. I am just trying to be a conscientious honda owner and take care of my quad.

I wouldnt worry about it! I have never greased anything on my foreman 400. Those things are bullet proof! You can run them into the ground and they keep on going.

Sorry man but those grease zerks are bleeder screws for your brakes. Doing the brakes is not a big deal but you should order a manual if you are going to do anything else. Nothing against you but doing things when you do not know what you are doing can cost you lot's of money. By a manual at your dealer ask for clymer manual for your bike model. Cost $20-$30. Hope I didn't offend you but you really should follow the manual or take it to the dealer.
