    Back on the forums..now with a honda

    hey whats up guys i havnt been on here in awhile, sold my other quads and stopped riding for about a year due to work and no time . well recently ive had a some more time and been looking around for a clean low hour bike. i wanted to switch it up from the yfz's ive owned and try out a 450r. and i came across this thing and i absoutley love it. its an 06 er with 1 ride, yes 1 ride on it. the guy bought it brand new from the dealer in late 06, rode it 1 time. that same day got into a car crash and was never able to ride it again. and i picked it up dirt cheap. its been sitting for 5 years or so.

    just had a few questions.

    whats the best oil for these things? ive heard rotella 15w40?

    same oil on clutch and motor side?

    Anything i should look for or make first mods? full exhaust, pro design inake, jet kit and nerfs are already ordered and will be here for christmas

    ^^^ He's right. I work there for the quad races. This past year we were lucky and had 3 (2 D6 and a NEATV) Atco MX isn't too far from you and they run quads every race unless otherwise posted. But when we do run ETown races, be sure to come check it out. ETown is one of the best tracks on the East Coast.
