Question picked up a 08 canam 450x last week

picked it up from a local dealer after trying to buy a honda and couldnt find one due to them not making them at this time.

it runs and looks good for being stock but the clutch makes a little squeaky noise(normal or what) which is annoying, other than that little problem im satisfied. going to the track today.

here are a few pics:

the noise is normal for the 2008 I have one just like it you need to have the clutch update for the noise to go away strongly suggested anyway if it is new try to take it back and get them to cover it under waranty if not thats your call but I have about 1600 dollars worth of upgrades and aftermarket parts just to make mine rideable and that 1600 is just scratching the surface compared to other people on here.

bought it new have around 4.5 hours run time on it right now. so is the squeaky clutch a defect?

gonna change a few things up on it in the next month or so.. adding exhaust, powdercoating a few things like nerf bars and and bumpers, cutting the pink wire, and changing the air filter to k&n.

anyone know what the top speed is?
