That's a nice 450R man. So how do you like yours. I love mine. Don't get to ride as much as I'd like to but oh' well, I have it just in case. Have fun man!!!!

How do you like that Curtis Sparks exhaust? Is it really loud as everyone claims it is? I want to get either that exhaust or the DR.D slip-on, I'm undecided on which to get a full CS exhaust or the slip-on. Any ideas on which to get?

when you say "hear the motor", are you saying your motor is noisy? Mine makes all kinds of racket. I swear somethings wrong with it......but it runs fine. I keep threatening to take it into the honda shop, but haven't because it will be a hassle for me. I have until march 9th before my warranty runs out.

you may want to take it in....... Theres been a few people on here that have had bottom-end bearings let go in motors that are only a few hours old.:( Personally I'd have it checked before it went out of warrenty.

Those bearings were going out within the first few (10) hours of riding or so. This motor is noisy, it just comes with the territory of a "high" performance, high revving motor. No worries.

i really hope you're right!! The noise is coming from the top half of the motor (ruling out the crank bearing). I don't know if it's the valves, timing chain, or normal noise. I don't have another 450 to compare it to. It does seem noticeably louder after it's warmed up.
