Can anyone tell me how to change the rear brake pads on a trx450r? I'm not ready to shell out the $50 bucks for the honda service manual. Any tips would be much appreciated!

make sure that you push the piston or pistons bake in b4 you put the new bads in. a c clamp will make that ez to do

Remove the caliper from the caliper holder, remove the brake retaining bolts, remove the pads, loosen the rear fluid reservoir, place a c clamp over the caliper piston and tighten in until it stops but don't overtighten, put in the new pads, mount the caliper back up. Don't forget to tighten the reservoir cap!!! That should get ya there.
