How do i like the twist throttle, or not getting the thumb cramps? (j/k) :P

I've been riding dirtbikes (YZ's) for quite awhile i just recently changed to a quad. The thumb trottle just didnt feel right, i felt like i didnt have constant control. A friend of mine has the same quad as me, but he hates the twist. I guess its all a matter of what your comfortable with. But i LOVE it. Best 30$ i've ever spent.

Same here. I used to be on CRs and when I switch to a quad that was the first thing I bought. My friend could use if he wanted to and it wouldn't bother him he just doesn't want to pay for it.

I hope you're talking about main jets. Shut off the gas, pull the plug out from the bottom of the carb (should be a 17mm wrench), and the main jet is right in there. You can purchase a jet tool most any motorcycle shop or use a 6mm socket and take it out. Then just reverse the process with your new jet.

You will need to things to properly do away with your parking brake. One is a parking brake block-off plate it is like $15 in the mags and any one will work on your 400EX the other is a new clutch perch I have a CR250 perch and lever.

You will need to take out the parking brake actuator on the back side of your rear caliper. That hole is what your new block off plate will cover. After that pull the cable out that goes up to your clutch perch. Good luck and I hope I explained myself well enough.
