buying te450 year 2009

i want to buy this bike i attach his photos.
the engine start with little touch on the starter and sound nice.
what do u think about this bike. reliable?
thanks.

Great reliable bike. Easy to work on. Parts can be hard to find.

solid bike. reliable, pulls good. And it's a good looking bike.

I don't think that mid-pipe shield is stock <grin> but it probably works. Roll the edges of it, if you can... might keep you from cutting your femoral artery open. You're gonna need a new knobby pretty soon- if you're riding the dirt; otherwise it's fine for the street.

enjoy.

love the 450, had an 06 carby model-not one issue. It is stone reliable. Just keep the oil fresh and keep the air filter clean.
Use an iridium plug-helps with cold starts.

Its possible to put 22,000 miles on this bike, it will need alot of attention tho. See my thread for some tips...
