2004 Honda Foreman 450 ES, shifting problems
bcsman replied to Bossdaddy's topic in Engine - Drivetrain
Did the bolt go in with no problems until you torqued it? I don't have the SM handy right now to look for the value.... -

Not sure what the torque value is for that bolt but sounds kinda strange unless the bolt was not designed for the job. -
Hey TJA glad you took the time to find us. And yes we do have a bunch of the older 350/450 models. As a 450ES owner if you forget to find neutral when you shut it down you may get the - in the gear area. Sometimes you can just use the buttons to get your green light, sometimes just rocking the bike a little with the buttons will work. Either way it shouldn't be a problem getting back to neutral.....

Is there any made for Honda wet clutches oil that people have used that doesn't work? If so it would be good to know.. -

Wilson as wet as you were for so long I guess it had to reverse itself eventually. Looks like you are getting a dose of moisture, hope it helps the crops there....

I dont recall doing mine a couple years ago....

Well I have an ES, never had a manual shift to compare, so my opinion is muted. I can say never had an issue with my ES so either I'm lucky or doing retro's preventative maintenance has done the job for me.....

Every situation is different from each other so what works for one may be a complete failure to the next. Unfortunately you have to treat each case somewhat by the seat of your pants and hope for the best......

That's the clutch adjustment screw, its attached. I see this is a 2004 model, mine is a 1998 so not sure if there are any differences. I don't believe I had anything fall off but its been a couple years.... -

Mistook what you wanted, the driveshaft will be able to be bent out of the way enough to remove the cover. You should remove the shift motor and conectors also... The service manual has a pretty good explanation for steps to remove the front cover.... -

boss, if your differential is loose and pulled forward as far as you can the driveshaft should compress back just enough to pull it off the engine. -
Hey wojo glad you joined our forum. We also have a chat section, just click on the Main Menu, never know when somebody will be there. Altho its mainly populated in the evenings.

Honestly I log out everytime I leave this and other forums but with the cookies saved I am always logged back in when I return. Wilson maybe something to do with the new phone you have, just a guess....

As fish has stated if you dont have the SM you can download the one for your model for free here. The main menu line has the link, it will come in handy for most any problem or question you will have and give you most all the info you need.....
