I have a 2006 Honda 450R and it has a good starter but when I try to start it it wont engage

Welcome to the forums.... You may have sheared the starter drive key, I would pull the starter and test it or take it and have it tested.

Welcome to the site, I agree with the above

if you know your starter is good..then check your one-way starter bearing..it's behind your flywheel.

Welcome to the forums. I agree with Shadetree, if the starter is turning, but it's not turning the engine over, then your one-way starter clutch bearing is out. It's not located behind the flywheel on the 450R, though, it's located behind the primary drive gear on the clutch (right) side of the engine.
