im lookin into a 450 class sport quad, that you dont need to do so much maintence to.
is there such a 450 where you can change the oil twice a year and other regular maintence? if not which takes the least maintence :P ? also on a budget of $9000 cnd.

Thanks in advance

if you dont plan on maintaining it, than i wouldnt recommend getting a sport quad, if anything i would think the 400ex would be your best bet, as they are bulletproof, but other wise, it all depends on how much you are willing to spend, but with 2 oil changes a year, with regular 10 hours a week of riding, your still looking at an oil change every 3 weeks, so 2 a year is kind of unnacceptable for a 450, let alone any quad....

lol i never got to ride to much so didnt change the oil so much, i guess. now we just go a new cottage with lots of fast trails and stuff, and i was lookin into a 400-450cc sport quad, i have no problem changin the oil and doin maintence. im just use to changin my Foremans oil once in awhile :P What/ how much maintence is expected?

before id put maybe 5-10 kms on the foreman, from small trail rides but mostly work. now with these trails, last weedend alone i put over 100kms easy of "highspeed" trail riding. next time im up, its gettin its oil changed.

oil change every 30 hours ( change mine every 20)

chain lube

grease everything, stem, axle, a arms, suspension

tightening of chain, axle etc....

thats just the regualr maintenance...
