Maintenance Fundamentals

Pre-ride Inspection

  • To ensure safety, it is your responsibility to perform a pre-ride inspection and make sure that any problem you find is corrected. A preride inspection is a must, not only for safety, but because having a breakdown, or even a flat tire, can be a major inconvenience.
  • Refer to the Competition Handbook for procedures.
  • Competitive riding can be tough on a vehicle, so it’s important to inspect your vehicle and correct any problems you find before each ride.
  • Check the following before each ride:
    • Engine oil level.
    • Fuel line for condition.
    • Coolant for proper level.
    • Cooling system and hoses for condition.
    • Spark plug for proper heat range, carbon fouling and spark plug wire terminal for looseness.
    • Air cleaner for condition and contamination.
    • Clutch lever freeplay.
    • Breather drain for cleaning.
    • Steering head bearing and related parts for condition.
    • Throttle operation.
    • Tires for damage or improper inflation pressure.
    • Spokes for looseness.
    • Rim locks for looseness.
    • Front and rear suspension for proper operation.
    • Front and rear brakes, check operation.
    • Drive chain for correct slack and adequate lubrication.
    • Drive chain sliders and drive chain rollers for damage or wear.
    • Exhaust pipe/Muffler for looseness.
    • Every possible part for looseness (such as cylinder head bolts, engine mounting bolts/ nuts, axle nuts, handlebar holder bolts, fork bridge pinch bolts, drive chain adjuster, lock nuts, drive chain roller bolt/nut, wire harness connectors).
    • PGM-FI malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) operation.

Between Races/Motos & Practice Maintenance

  • CRF450RX: After practice or between races you have a chance to make additional checks and adjustments.
  • CRF450R/RWE: After practice or between motos you have a chance to make additional checks and adjustments.
    • Clean accumulated dirt from under the fenders and off the wheels, suspension components, handgrips, controls, and footpegs. A stiff, nylon parts cleaning brush works well.
    • Check tire air pressure.
    • Check spoke tension, and make sure the rim locks are secure.
    • Check to make sure the sprocket bolts and nuts are secure.
    • Clean the sides of the drive chain with a stiff, nylon parts-cleaning brush. Lubricate and adjust the chain as necessary.
  • Do not perform maintenance while engine is running. Injury to your fingers or hands may result.
    • After adjustment, check that the chain adjuster index marks are in the same position on each side. This will ensure that the rear wheel is in proper alignment and allow maximum performance from the rear disc brake.
  • Maintaining proper wheel alignment will also extend brake pad lifespan.
    • Suspend the front wheel above the ground and use the pressure release screws to release the built-up pressure in the forks. This pressure is caused by normal fork action while riding.
  • Tighten the pressure release screws to the specified torque: Torque: 1.0 lbf·ft (1.3 N·m, 0.1 kgf·m)

After Competition Maintenance

  • It is important to the long term performance of your vehicle to practice a consistent maintenance program. Right after the event is a good time to begin your next maintenance cycle
  • After Race Lubrication
    • Apply a light coating of rust-inhibiting oil to the drive sprocket and any steel portions of the chassis or engine where the paint has worn away.
    • This will prevent rusting of the exposed metal. Apply rust-inhibiting oil more heavily if the event was particularly wet or muddy. Take care to avoid spraying any oil near the brake pads or the brake discs.
    • Take care to prevent catching your fingers between the chain and sprocket.
    • Remove the drive chain, clean and lubricate it. Be sure the chain is wiped clean and is dry before lubricating the chain.

  • Routine Cleaning
    • If your vehicle is only slightly dirty, it is best to clean it by hand with the aid of a stiff bristled nylon brush and some clean rags
    • Take care to prevent catching your fingers between the chain and sprocket.
    • A variety of reasonably priced cleaning brushes are available from variety, drug, food, and hardware stores. Some of these brushes are extremely useful in removing dirt from the many tight contours of the metal pieces of your vehicle.
    • Avoid using stiff, abrasive brushes on the plastic or rubber parts.
    • If your vehicle was exposed to sea air or salt water, rinse it as soon as possible after the event, dry it, and apply a spray lubricant to all metal parts.
    • If you decide to wash your vehicle or use cleaners, refer to "Caring for Your Vehicle"

  • NOTICE Do not jump-start, as this can damage your vehicle's electrical system and battery. Bump starting is not recommended.
  • NOTICE Installing non-Honda electrical accessories can overload the electrical system, discharging the battery and possibly damaging the system.

Fuses

  • Fuses protect the electrical circuits on your vehicle. If something electrical on your vehicle stops working, check for and replace any blown fuses.
  • Inspecting and Replacing Fuses: Turn the engine off to remove and inspect the fuses. If a fuse is blown, replace with a fuse of the same rating. For fuse ratings, see “Specifications.”

  • NOTICE Replacing a fuse with one that has a higher rating greatly increases the chance of damage to the electrical system.
  • If a fuse fails repeatedly, you likely have an electrical fault. Have your vehicle inspected by your dealer.

Tires (Inspecting/Replacing)

Checking the Air Pressure

  • Visually inspect your tires and use an air pressure gauge to measure the air pressure before each ride.
  • Always check air pressure when your tires are cold.
  • If you decide to adjust the tire pressure for a particular riding condition, make changes a little at a time.

Inspecting for Damage

  • Inspect the tires for cuts, slits, or cracks that exposes fabric or cords, or nails or other foreign objects embedded in the side of the tire or the tread. Also inspect for any unusual bumps or bulges in the side walls of the tires.

Inspecting for Abnormal Wear

  • Inspect the tires for signs of abnormal wear on the contact surface.

Inspecting Rims and Valve Stems

  • Inspect the rims for damage and loose spokes. Also inspect the valve stems for their positions. A tilted valve stem indicates the tube is slipping inside the tire or the tire is slipping on the rim. See your dealer

Have your tires replaced by your dealer. For recommended tires and air pressure, see “Specifications.” 2 P. 71 Follow these guidelines whenever you replace tires.

  • Use the recommended tires or equivalents of the same size, construction, speed rating, and load range.
  • Remember to replace the inner tube whenever you replace a tire. The old tube will probably be stretched, and it could fail if installed in a new tire.
  • If a tube is punctured or damaged, you should replace it as soon as possible. A repaired tube may not have the same reliability as a new one, and it may fail while you are riding. Use a replacement tube equivalent to the original.

Transporting Your Vehicle

If your vehicle needs to be transported, it should be carried on a motorcycle trailer or a flatbed truck or trailer that has a loading ramp or lifting platform, and motorcycle tie-down straps. Never try to tow your vehicle with a wheel or wheels on the ground.

NOTICE Towing your vehicle with a wheel or wheels on the ground can cause serious damage to the transmission.

If you use a truck or motorcycle trailer to transport your vehicle, we recommend that you follow these guidelines:

  • Use a loading ramp.
  • Relieve the fuel pressure and drain the fuel from the fuel tank into an approved gasoline container.
  • Secure the vehicle in an upright position, using motorcycle tie-down straps. Avoid using rope, which can loosen and allow the vehicle to fall over.

To secure your vehicle, brace the front wheel against the front of the truck bed or trailer rail. Attach the lower ends of two straps to the tiedown hooks on truck bed or trailer rail. Attach the upper ends of the straps to the handlebar (one on the right side, the other on the left), close to the fork.

Check that the tie-down straps do not contact any control cables or electrical wiring.

Tighten both straps until the front suspension is compressed about half-way. Too much pressure is unnecessary and could damage the fork seals.

Use another tie-down strap to keep the rear of the vehicle from moving.

We recommend that you do not transport your vehicle on its side. This can damage the vehicle, and leaking gasoline could be a hazard.

Oxygenated Fuels

  • Some conventional fuels blended with alcohol or an ether compound are available in some locales to help reduce emissions to meet clean air standards. These gasolines are collectively referred to as oxygenated fuels. If you plan to use oxygenated fuel, check that it is unleaded and meets the minimum octane rating and blend requirement.
  • The following fuel blends have been approved for use in your vehicle:
    • Ethanol (ethyl alcohol) up to 10% by volume.
      • Gasoline containing ethanol may be marketed under the name Gasohol.
    • Do not use gasoline containing methanol (methyl alcohol).
  • If you accidentally fill your fuel tank with an oxygenated fuel containing higher percentages, you may experience performance problems. To resolve the problem, have your dealer drain the fuel tank and replace with the correct fuel. Fuel system or performance problems resulting from the use of an oxygenated fuel containing higher percentages are not covered by your warranty.
  • NOTICE Improper use of oxygenated fuels can damage metal, rubber, and plastic parts of your fuel system. Oxygenated fuel can also damage paint.
  • If you notice any undesirable operating symptoms or performance problems, try a different brand of gasoline.
