  • This ATV is amazing!
    By Owen Dupre (I am an Owner) on Feb 11, 2020

    I have had this ATV for a couple years now and it hadn't broken and has always ran good. It handles really good in the desert and it the sand dunes. I has great traction anywhere you go. This is also a great race quad and has a lot of potential in it. That is why I love my Honda 450R so much.

  • Definately a great choice
    By BackwoodsQuad (I am an Owner) on Feb 20, 2014

    This thing had enough power to handle the track but enough agility to handle the trails. If you want a truly great quad this is the one!

  • Great quad for what you would pay, but i don't recommend the 04 - 05
    By Richard (I am an Owner) on Feb 04, 2013

    Honestly the quad gives you sufficient power and reliability and this quad is great for beginners trying to get into racing. But if your already a hardcore rider or experienced racer, or just have an urge to have the most power i would highly recommend NOT going with the 04 - 05. in 2006 Honda completely ...

    also the 04 - 05 Honda Trx450r cannot compare to the newer 450 atv's on the market, unless you dump a large sum of money into them. i had an 05 i dumped about 2500 into the quad and my friend had a 100% completely stock 2012 yfz450r and i only beat him by about a half of quad length in a drag.

    MY ENDING POINT IS..., if your just looking to get a used atv to trail ride, mess around or practice at the track they are fine, very controllable power, amazing throttle response, easy comfort, amazing handling, but if you have the extra cash your willing to spend, stay away from the 2004 - 2005.

  • Fantastic!
    By Dylan (I am an Owner) on Apr 22, 2012

    I've had my trx450r for about 3 years now. All I can say is wow. I've raced 700CC raptors and walked away from them with my quad stock. I've ridden trails and raced, and overall its been a fantastic quad. I love the kick start, I can start it every time no problem. I've ridden up some steep slopes ...

    Another thing I love is the aftermarket availability of parts, from plastics to axles. I've never once said "Oh I wish they made something like this for mine". My quad is going on, at least, 7 years of riding, and it has seen its fair share of 9000+ RPM's. My only regret is that the quad doesn't have a speedometer. However, a quick 100 bucks later, I have a speedometer, coolant, and RPM gauge.
