Looks great!! ;)
Is that a new cylinder? All the little things such as filler caps, gas cap, hand guards, etc... make it look better also.

If you havent got a GT linkage on the back that would be the next thing I would do to it.

I just noticed the stock bars. Bars and stem are a must. Fuelatv has stems w/ clamps for oversixed bars for the same price as most stems by there self

I had a +2 on my 416ex and my LTR450. I like mine to sit up high. Everyone I race w/ rides 450r's and they all have +2 stems.

I had the Tag T2 bars before I got my flexx bars. My brother in law bent his stock steering stem in a tumble down a hill. Tag bars were just like new after the crash. Never had any pro tapers but ill tell you that Tag bars are strong

Houser stem would be my next choice.

now if i go +2 on the stem will everything still fit? cables ect.

Yes, you mite have to run your cables a little diff. but everything will work. Fuel sayd +2 that cables may not fit but ive seen stock cables on all kinds of 450s w/ +2 stems

The ARS-FX or Laeger is the best stem for the 450R because of the lower steering flag. After that I would get a Houser.
Flexx Bars would be #1 choice and then the Tag or Pro Taper.
