Doesn't look like a Pro-trax front end.

Roll possibly or some new HRC stuff?

How about that polished swingarm? Never thought the stocker could look so good.

Thank you Honda for stepping up to the plate, and hiring a pro to ride at the factory level. :cool:

I'm not trying to start anything but does it look like the bike has a high center of gravity in the first picture? I would have thought for mx Tims bike would have been a little bit lower to the ground. Just an observation. I'm not that crazy about how the bike looks from the front but the side radiator shrouds that look like Hondas motocross bikes is the coolest thing I have ever seen on a quad.

From the looks of it the zps springs are not compressed thats y it is not sitting very low.

That is a sweet quad. That doesnt look like a roll front end because of the lower balljoints.

Looks sweet but I think it would look better with atleast alittle bit of a front fender.

O my I think i wet myself thats one FINE quad:eek2:

10-03-2003, 10:24 PM
uhhh, I think the zps spring is compressed on thse shocks, that appears to be a triple rate pep, with a ZPS spring right above it.

the bike can be lowered more by moving the retaning clip, Also, hes not sitting on the bike so its not sagging to the rider level..

Take a look at those rezzies!:eek2:

that bike is sweet, I do think honda needs tomake there own arms ETC..

How anyone could call that bike ugly is beyond me.

There will be some wild graphics available for the 450r due to the large side area but it will be hard to beat that bike.

I would add a set of Hyper's with red rings and PC the frame black chrome.

Is that a WB carbon silencer on the bike?

I have a good question, are those front fenders on th 450r removeable? They don't look like they have been shaved.:confused:

that might be how it's gonna be setup for the baja amd thats why it's sitting high

how much is the hcr graphic kit for the 400ex? I have never seen it before. Is it the same one for the CRF450 or is it different? pretty cool anyway.

the front end isnt roll, its HRC its a factory bike! they put as much of the factory made race parts on it as they got to promote their products, thats why its a factory team. of course theyll have the PEP suspension on their cause a factory cant match the performance of the suspension.

yes they are. drill out the rives and unbolt the fender brace. no cutting involved

I agree with Infantry Racing... that looks to be a baja setup with how hight it is.

I don't see a fan for the radiator. No pusher no puller. Any ideas? I know these bikes run warm.

ATC83
10-10-2003, 01:37 PM
I don't think Honda will be running a fan and coolant resevour on Tim Farrs TRX450 to save weight. My experience with the motocross bikes and the YFZ450 is that they only seem to over heat when they idle or run at a slow pace for a long period of time. I've talked to some guys who have been running without the fan or coolant resevour on the YFZ450 this summer and they haven't experienced any problems.

So when are you getting rid of your "old" 400ex and stepping up to the 450R?? :D

Don't forget to get extra steering stems... :devil:

10-15-2003, 06:08 PM
Do you know if that is the stock swingarm? And do you know what kind of A-arms those are? They look like Merrel Extremes.

Yeah, Honda could whoop Pep's *** at making shocks if they really wanted to.

bigz-71
10-26-2003, 11:45 PM
is that the factory axle? it looks like the factory axle nut. it that is the factory axle they did a really good job on making it shine. i like all the chrome on the bike. the front end sits higher than i would like but you got to expect he is not sitting on the bike and like someone else said, its probably set up for the desert with a lot of ground clearence. i do like the a-arms. i dont know about not having no fenders up front at all. i think i would like to have just a little fenders. well i am still ready to see the bike in action. i know we all are.

wouldnt want them ne ways....i think tim farr shoulda stuck with laeger...i kno i woulda asked honda to let me use a laeger set up and laeger swing arm...better stuff proally....i mean aint like its gonna alter the bike any...every 1 in the world knows that farr is sponsored by honda...would it make a shyt if he used an a-arm of his choice....

"Thanks for the $200,000 salary, the use of your $500,000 rig and the $1,000,000+ support for the upcoming race season but you wouldn't mind if I used someone elses a-arms would you?? I mean, they have to be better than what ever HRC can fab up for me. Plus, whenever I win they give me a hat, a t-shirt and take me to Taco Bell and I get to order anything I want!!"

I can almost here him saying that.

I wouldn't go that far. Heres Farrs comments on his Honda backing:

ATV Scene: What about the people behind your team? Will you have new mechanics? A marketing person? Tell us more behind the scenes info.
Farr: Everything will remain mostly the same. Honda respects that my program has won many championships and needs to remain intact. I will most likely have
some sponsor changes, but the main companies and crew that have helped me get to this point in my career will remain. Mark Baldwin will always be my
mechanic.
