i just got my 450r caliper today from service honda and i was curious how you put the pads in, my 400 had pins, these just sit in there but do you have to dissassemble anything on the caliper to get them in or is there a trick to slipping them in?

Remove the bolt closest to you when working on the bike from the rear, and then just pivot the caliper up. The pads are the same on the rear as the Rincon in aftermarket. They slip in place, but you may have to press the brake piston back into the caliper to get the caliper over the pads.
