I just bought a used 1999 Honda Foreman 450 ES and I would like to change the motor oil, what type of oil is recommended for this. I do not have an owner's manual.

Sorry man i searched all over the internet but could only find out that it takes 2.2 quarts (and i am not even sure how veracious that is) but i could not find what weight.

However if you are planning on keeping your quad for a while then it will probably be beneficial to buy a repair manual for it. We have manuals for all of our quads and they can really come in handy when something breaks.

The motor bookstore is the cheapest that i could find but amazon has one to. Your local honda dealer should have one as well.

Honda ATV Repair Manuals: ATC, TRX, Fourtrax, Sportrax, Foreman, Odyssey

Amazon.com: Clymer Manual ATV'S-Honda TRX450 Forman 1998-2004: Automotive

Hopefully somebody else will jump in that has a forman but like i said a repair manual will probably come in handy sooner or later.

Oil change

10-30W or 10-40W 2.2 quarts. There was really no info. on your quad. I second buying a manual.:thumbsup:
