I bought my 04 TC 450 back.

The General has been gone since March of 2017,the new owner only rode it around his yard a half dozen times, and one real ride. The bike is exactly as I sold it, same tires virutual no wear on them. I don’t know how much I will ride it, but I know it sure puts a smile on my face , and I hope to restore it in the next few winters.

Nice!!! Know the feeling I wont sell any my bikes anymore. Is the engine still original parts?

Thanks, engine is mostly original, installed steel valves years ago, haven't had to adjust since.

Where did you source the steel valves?

Great grunty bikes.

Halls Husqvarna made stainless valves for the 2004 models.

I used to have an 04 TC450. Pretty solid bike once the carb was set up right and had the CA green sticker needed here. My original valves never moved too much, but I know that was hit or miss (or maybe a time bomb). With new valves that should be a really durable bike and the stock muffler was pretty quiet.

Halls Cycles had them , years ago.
