Honda Foreman 450 Maintenance

[@scott01clay74]

I had Foreman used everyday but was never neglected on maintenance never once did it give me any trouble wasnt babied at all amazing machine

[@thomasd9237]

I just picked up a 1998 foreman 400 with winch & plow. It's amazing. I'm giving it a basic run through & got it new tires. Doesn't smoke or clatter it just runs. I'm impressed 👍👍

[@jakewendlingg7248]

Just picked up a 2000 with almost 11k miles many more to come!!

You shouldn’t screw the dipstick in to check the level. Hust dip it. Overfilling causes leaks.

[@willowsmutt8313]

Just found a barn find of one of these. 2005 450 s with 34 miles and 104 hrs on it. Trying to get it running now

[@TheCaperfish]

bro ya got level check bolt on that rear diff yer overfilling it lol

[@hondaman6918]

Check your valves too… a lot of ticking going on. Love my Honda

[@johnnyfudpucker6187]

I have the exact same machine that I bought from a guy who bought it new and never rode it... I had to put a carb on it. It has only 79 miles on it.

[@rolop847]

I have 3 honda (1983) 3 wheelers and they still work, basic maintenance is what is the best, and they keep running.

[@brandonmortensen8208]

Honda for life . Gear on gear baby

[@Young937phoenix]

I just bought a 02 that was sitting in his garage for 20+ years not being rode and it only has 1123 miles only lol.

[@johnnyfudpucker6187]

How many sets of tires over all those miles?

[@ronladuke7235]

All honda small engines with a screw in dipstick your supposed to wipe the dipstick off and place in without screwing it down to get a correct reading.

[@601_hondas]

Good vid, honda on top

[@UpInSmoke54]

Oil that air filter, foam filter doesn't filter dust that well without oil.

[@jasongodin7165]

Don't screw in dip stick when checking oil

[@ericpigg2689]

I picked up a 2002 Foreman 450 S last weekend for free from a neighbor. They did not want to spend the money to fix it. I am $200 in for parts (mostly the new battery) and it purrs like a kitten and runs like a scalded dog. I lied to myself by saying I would fix it and flip it, but we all know it is staying right here.

[@rotten-and-forgotten]

Awesome!!!

[@joerutkowsky3261]

With that many miles on it and you never adjusted the valves.

[@donaldboley771]

You need to change that drain plug washer with ever oil change.

[@lsumaniac2485]

You absolutely do not,

[@donaldboley771]

Check with honda. Not changing it is why people keep overtighting it to stop oil leak. When I buy oil at filter at the Honda dealer the washer is taped to the filter box.

[@lsumaniac2485]

@donaldboley771 I replace mine about ever 3rd or 4th oil change and have a 2002 trx450 with going on 20,000 miles. Never one time have I experienced an oil leak nor have I ever over tighten my bolt. I'm not hating you if that's what you like to do but I'm just stating it is definitely not needed every oil change

[@merlin767]

Can't go wrong with a Honda .long as maintain them

[@Martyvison]

Not using wet clutch oil not good

[@ericpigg2689]

Must not be too much of an issue if he has 30k miles.
