Great to see you get an easy one from an honest seller. It's difficult to take any seller at their word. The key is don't pay too much just in case the seller is lying out their ass. If it sounds to good to be true it usually is but not always as you well know. I used to fix and flip cars. Too many financial lessons to learn. Off-road vehicles with small engines seems a much better way to go once you understand values. Great channel.

@Tucker Cooper lol have to wait for parts and locate parts so he can't just finish them with no part.i mean it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure it out.
Just bought one too a few months ago from my neighbor fully loaded complete race setup, built engine elka suspension extended control arms/axle runs on race gas ready to ride for 2k cash, I’d say I got it on a steal. It’s a 2005 trx 450r twist throttle and she’s a total beast
@@mikespain8655 yup calculate all parts at new, and work to do it $$$$ alot of money. The issue is you can buy a race ready nationals bike for 10-15k so pricing this at 7k is a way to much to anyone who knows about race quads
There are honest folk out there that just want stuff gone occasionally, i dont think its ever had coolant back in it since the rebuild. another lucky find
Joe finds an untighted cam CHAIN tightener. Mission accomplished. Finding the cam chain loose was the kicker. Then the stretched chain couldn't stay tight until Joe put an extra turn in the spring. This will soon run out of tension again MAYBE.
I had one of those about 15 years ago and I swear that thing was a Widowmaker because it was just scary fast. I put some Woody’s studs from a snowmobile on the back tire for ice racing and it was insane. I love your channel and don’t stop what you’re doing.
This is your best sounding and almost fastest quad you've had on the channel. Good job finding this one! I have a 2004 TRX with a milled head that's ported with a wiseco 11 to 1 piston with a Curtis Sparks 🤘🏻
Built that same setup in 05. But I had jb a arms,swimgarm,stem and subframe. Very nice quad. Then I sold it and bought a new crf450 and never looked back lol.
Love the channel. Living the good life in Wisconsin. 291k subs, need to get some merch (tees, riding gear, stickers) and sponsorships. You are meant for a higher purpose. Can not Imagine trying to snowball you on a bike or ATV sale. "This CR500 was used by my grandmother to get to and from church."
What a deal,joe guy sounded pretty legit to me awesome machine with really good parts on it this thing will pull your pants off mate lol look forward to the first ride take care buddy and all the best to the family 👌👍🔧🔧🔧
Thats a pretty high compression ratio. I had a bike that was up there too but it ran better on Avgas which I bought from my local airport. ...just a thought.
I recommend changing out that plug going to the CDI box cause those go bad on those Honda four wheeler'e a lot due to getting wet a lot to. I'd use some electrical dilute grease inside of those plugs.& connection contact points to.
just loving these videos. Im from MN and you have a lot of MN way of talking, lol. But you are one of the better small engine repair guys ive ever seen, Wish you were in Cental MN.
Considering all the aftermarket parts on the bike that’s easy 7k here in California. The front end alone will run you at lest $1500 ( a arms and shocks ) add the rear shock, axle, pipe with head work about the same. So fir $2500 that’s a steal 👍🏽
The only thing that concerns me is that the tensioner is maxed out and will not be able to keep the chain tight if it stretches out anymore. I know that changing the timing chain sucks but I think you are just prolonging the inevitable replacement with the tensioner adjustment. Other than that you got an excellent find.
@@jerrywilcox9890 I do know. I have been working on cars since the early 90's and my personal and friends motorcycles almost as long. I have changed tensioners on motorcycles but never had to change out the chain but have watched you and a few others on UA-cam do it.
being that he forgot to tighten the carb....i wouldnt be surprised if all he did was forget to add the coolant, easy mistake and easy fix, good thing you caught it 😂
Another one with timing issues... Im scared of that. Warped heads bent valves... Hope it's all good can;t wait to finish this video and see what happens, I also couldn't wait until the end to comment. 😂(edit) Oh it actually runs, Okay. Different story then. I'm at the end and the fix didn;t cost you a thing, so that was an awesome buy and an awesome video cheers from Canada!
Specially the 2300 price for a legacy supsension kit 1000 new ive added my bike up when I got it done last and both builds totaled 10k maybe close to 11k
Nice one joe, you should do a video soon to show all the ongoing bikes you have: there must be quite a collection growing now!! I’m in the uk and even I’m looking for a 700xx cylinder head for you 🤣
Is that timing chain new or used, looks like a hell of a lot of play, don't want to be heavy in the throttle and it slips, your gonna be ass out. Just be mindful of tolerances. They're there for a reason, so they won't take too long to swap out. Great bike, though. Keep up the great work and vids!
Now thats the sell you need to give a Christmas gift too and throw him another 500. He had alot of machines and if u do right thing who's the first person he'll contact for next thing he's selling??? But either way glad to see there is so honest sellers out there like me. Good job Joe on fixing that chain tensioner
I can't wait till you start doing what I think you call street bike's i have a YZFR125 I hear there is not many in the U.S. but they have an EFI engine and I hear they are the most complicated 125s they have the same engine as the MT125 I had to change my first engine water had gotten into the engine and ruined my bottom and top ends the conrod was bent and wasn't able to replace the water pump seals was good and couldn't work out how water had got in if you start doing my type of bike I have some spares I could send oil filters plastics wheels ect I tend to buy too many extra spares and would willingly send them over as love how you explain things as you go I was going to get rid of my bike but it owes me double what it's worth and it is my first bike I am legal on and own I would say anyone come to me with a kx125 in good condition I'd have to really think about it as before owning this bike I wanted a 2stroke dirt bike to trail ride
Did you ever think there was no coolent because he never got that far after he got it in time. From the previous owner that rebuilt it.makes sense to me
Ho Lee Moly Miss Molly Looks like you are genius on timing tensioners, not your first rodeo. I’m excited for the first ride. Where will you do top speed like you did at the parents house?
Think they make an aftermarket tensioner with like a bolt adjuster that you can tighten manually now that I'm thinking I think since them tensioner are hydraulic n often have top end oiling issue after rebuild they don't ever work right
I have a Honda 300 four trax in perfect condition... Their classic four wheelers & Durable didn't want to part with it but would be willing to swap it for more speed. So if you're looking to trade for one of your quads.
Would u like to do a video on my 2003 triumph speed four.... it's fuel injected and is really hard to start when cold... and when it does finally want to start it has a ticking noise coming from somewhere in the engine

Around here they are 4k CAD+ bone stock, got ridiculous during covid and prices haven't went backup down for the 450s. That's a decent price for what you have I believe.
GRUMPY here those things on the bars are called bark busters in aus they stop trees ,bush ect from smashing your hands as you bust threw the bush good deal on the forby lots of good bits GRUMPY
That's what I thought your problem was your problem with the loose timing chain issues on that Honda 450cc four wheeler. Check the CDI box could have went bad to.
More than likely he drained the coolant because he was planning on having to remove the head to replace the chain. Just my guess. Also why he probably called it quits.
Fix that fan to come on when it SHOULD!! The machine needs to warm up and run at its spec temp. For the best reason to fix the fan to come on ONLY when it should is because when the fan says “F-U” & locks up what u gunna do then?? Now 1st Check & clean the radiator cooling fins and clean out debris. Now, it’s 13/1 motor and should ONLY b running race gas either 110 or 113 oxygenated. Finally ending w/putting in engine ice coolant in it I bet the fan probably won’t even come on but once or twice in a day of riding
Hopefully it's not out of coolant cuz there's a head gasket failure, or cap failure causing it overflow constantly. Boyesen cover without aftermarket clutch is normal. Guys buy em for bling. It's winter man, after you get it running, complete teardown. Get new heims and ball joints, rebuild linkage and swingarm. Freshen it up. It deserves it. Send the shocks to SF Racing, he'll rebuild them for you quad specs and your weight and make em look new. Please, don't just do it for us, do it for you, you deserve it
You normally don't half to readjust the valve clearance's on the Honda 450cc engine if your just changing out the cam shaft inside. To A racing hot cam #3 those valves should stay at factory settings even though you change that cam. Cause it allows the valves lift clearance to stay at the specs. By doing that procedure due to it's only the camshaft being changed out.& Nothing else in that part of the top end on the head for increasing power.& Performance output at its peak. So no it stays the same. It'll be A screamer now to. Sometimes the tensioner can break like you just said to.
