HONDA TRX450ER PROBLEMS

[@brianmccullen9156]

I know this is a old video. Where did you get that valve tester from?

[@sawyercustom]

Oh man.. I’ve had that thing 25 years plus.. off the tool truck most likely. Search leak down testers on eBay I’m also using the pieces out of a compression tester to get threaded into the spark plug hole

With your experience.. is the 2008 Honda TRX a good reliable quad....

[@sawyercustom]

trx400 yes all day long.. I've found all 450's are ticking time bombs, and eat valves and cranks for snacks. You might get many hours out of it, you might not. that's not counting the extreme cost of a rebuild over a 400. A 450 is a powerhouse and super fast, but not reliable.

@@sawyercustom thank you very much I appreciate it...... I'm going to look at getting a 400 or the Raptor 700

[@sawyercustom]

@@dirtfamilystyle raptor isn’t as high strung but is a bit tippy, could use wider arms and rear axle for stability. The 400 is the cheapest of the bunch in repairs and issues. But still has a butt load of options.

@@sawyercustom right on... Thank you!!
