Thank you for the contribution! Balljoints already had this manual in the collection though... Drill down to Honda > Sport Quads > TRX 90 and you will see the download for the manual. Sometimes they could be labeled differently but most are there somewhere lol Edit: 2013 -2016 was missing Edited December 10, 2020 by oh400ex Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Existing one is for model 2006-2012 and yours is 06-16 (newer) Don't think there are many differences but always better to have the most updated version! Even if it was the same manual... I know I'm not alone in appreciating the contribution! If you like... post an introduction and tell us a bit about what you did with it. I would guess you have a few other bikes and this is one you fixed for your kid. Thanks again! Edited December 10, 2020 by oh400ex 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Very top flat L Shaped cross member. VIN is on top surface. I have seen someone here say which letter signifies the VIN. I don't recall. Post a pic of the front/side of your bike(super easy on this site) and I'm sure someone can shout out the year of it. Being a 450. I 'think' they only offered them for a few years. I have a 450S that's a 98(first year). 04 is the end of that 'square' body style then they got a face lift. I'm not sure, though, what the look of the new one was. Post that first generation they moved to front disk brakes...but I'm not sure if the 450 survived beyond the first few years. Still learning myself Edited January 2, 2021 by 87Iroc 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Goober 1,555 Posted January 2, 2021 (edited) Does yours have a 2WD 4WD selector near the throttle? If not most likely it is the earlier model. here are pix of an 03 showing that squared front end of the earlier design, but the 4x4 Traxlox sticker indicating the drive selector option.

Fishfiles 20,145 Posted January 2, 2021 After looking at Goober's pic , I noticed the handle bars looked different to me , and I have both gen 450s , so I looked at the parts list and they show two different handle bars for the first and second gen , I have never noticed that before today and I ride both of them --- going to look today to see the difference , looks like the 2nd gen might be a little higher , mini ape hangers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The_wanderer 3 Posted January 3, 2021 Thanks guys.... seems like I might have the earlier one, no 4x4 selector. also seems like the sticker has rubber off/been removed from the front of the frame. feel I should add that this bike is in Australia too if that makes any difference. where abouts will I find an engine number?? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
retro 4,048 Posted January 3, 2021 Hi @The_wanderer, the VIN is stamped into the frame on the steel cross member just behind the bumper. See the screen shot from the service manual: 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The_wanderer 3 Posted January 3, 2021 Thanks for the screen shot.., that helped , the vin number isnt clear enough even after a bit of wire brushing and cleaning... the engine number however was great... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toodeep 1,758 Posted January 3, 2021 In the states the 81----- motor number would make it a 1999 or 2000 model. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hankrutherfordhill 3 Posted September 8, 2021 Hey, 2021 TRX520FA6M (thats from the bill of sale) - looking for the service manual. I see they changed from 500-520 somewhere in the last few years. Am I SOL on a free pdf manual? I found one on Helm for $50. Where I live tends to necessitate all my own wrenching so I generally seek these out for my vehicles. Cheers for the advice and thanks for posting these! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
