Honda TRX450R ATV Hop Up
Robert Boop
We sent our 2004 Honda ATV over to ATVParts.Biz for a little tune up. The first thing they recommended was changing the color from red to black. They added the 2005 Black OEM plastic kit to the body, which gave the ATV a mean look.
Suspension: The Honda ATV is a little squirrelly on the rear end so the Durablue Eliminator X33 axle was installed. This is a 2+2 width and comes with billet hubs and billet sprocket hub. You will notice a big improvement in handling and in the turns. On the front the Lonestar 2+2 long travel A Arms with Pivot Works bushing and seal kits where installed with the Durablue billet hubs and nuts. For shocks the Elka quad rate long travel shocks where installed on front and back. Also, On the rear was the Elka linkage, which gives additional travel. With these mods the Honda TRX450r atv tackles all forms of terrain and soaks up the monster jumps.
Engine: Luttig Performance took the ATV engine and performed thier magic. They did one of their well known port jobs, added oversized valves and a Hotcam stage 2. Also added was a CP Hi comp piston and assembled.
Exhausts: The FMF Racing Factory 4 exhausts was added, This is a full titanium exhaust system and comes with the FMF jet kit and wash plug. The jet kit has great instruction for all sorts of scenarios. We jetted to a mod engine with airbox lid removed. With this set up and the engine mod we had incredible power increase.
Wheels: The Douglas Ultimate Beadlock rims where added. These rims are the top of the line. They make it easy to change tires as you don’t need a bead breaker. Just simply un bolt the outer plate and R&R tires. These rims are awesome in looks.
ATV Accessories: The 909 fat bars, grips and clamps where added for a better feel and fit. AC Racing sent a set of their Pro Peg Nerf bars with heel guards. These nerfs have a nice fat peg and are easy to install.
