Well i just got my Trx 450r and i wrecked it a couple days ago and i bent the left tie rod should i just take it off and bend it back or but a new set?

Just guna keep bending if u bend it back.
Will work till u can get a new one tho.

New ones are like 12bux from honda I think.

it dosent knock my tire off too bad but its just one of those things that bothers u. is there and stronger or bigger ones that i could buy?

dont buy stronger ones, its better too buy 12 dollars for a new than 70 dollars for a tire or 500 i think for a -arms

Agreed if you get stronger tie rods your just going to bend more expensive things the next time.

The stock tie rods bend like butter. Stronger ones are the way to go. JMO

modquad makes some real lnice tie rods i have on my 05 450r havent been able to bend em yet. plus they work with the stock ball joints, and not very expensive. better to spend the money then to ruin a riding trip because of a bent tie rod. try em, youll fall in love, i promise. lol
