Here soon Im going to need to find some cheap parts. Like crank+rod, piston, gasket kit, and some other parts to put my 450r back together. I have a 06 trx450er that locked up on new years day and it has been horrible to not have been able to ride all summer long. What happened was the lower bearing and thrust washers on the rod grenaded and sent chunks all through my engine. The piston is all pitted on the bottom its still in good shape. Its either a balwdin or a prox 13.5:1 piston. The crank got messed up upon removal so that screws me on rebuilding the crank. The rod is also shot. I would like to put it back together cheaply but still be able to run the way it did. It was extremely fast. Cernics built it for a racer that they sponsored and was their show bike. I have alot of money into other accesories on it and i dont want it to go to waste. I used to be a yamaha guy until I got a good deal on this honda and grew to love it.

i dont think youll beat our prices on the rebuild parts, unless you find used....

pm me an exact list of what you need for your build and we will get prices together....

crank, crank, bearings, gaskets, and pistons are all on the shelf.

paul @ woodward will hook you up.

i can understand the cost of buyin used pieces here and there, but id save a bit and buy all new.. or atleast buy all the components from one person. you can get alot of dishonest sellers with used engine parts and get screwed. its taking another gamble.

Im going to need crank and rod, piston kit, crank bearings, top and bottom gaskets and seals, swing arm piviot bolt,...... Well I dont know what else I would need to do a rebuild. I was told I would need a new oil pump. Also when the thrust washers broke the got drug around the case and the crank. it made a long scrape on the right side of the case and made a hole into where the crank balancer shaft goes through. I would like to make the engine fast and not have to run race gas. Maybe 12:1 compression and I would like to do some head work. I just dont want to spend a fourtune on this engine. I'm a Marine I'm supposed to deploy in a few weeks and a heart problem is stopping me from going over to Iraq and I might get medically seperated from the Marine Corps. That is extra money that I might or might not have. Thanks for any help.
