What are you predictions as far as the release date and the upgrades of the 2008 400EX?

Hard to predict what might get changed...if anything. Maybe they are just late in getting it up on the web site???? But, if one is thinking about a 400EX purchase, it is certainly worth waiting to see what happens....

Fuel injection is the only thing I can think of. That and/or maybe a shock upgrade????

I've heard many different things, one person told me there isn't going to be a 2008 model. (I can't see why not.) Another person told me it's going to be released later in the year with major upgrades. And one person told me if there is going to be an 08 it's just going to have cosmetic upgrades.

I wish I could contact Honda and ask them, but I can't find an e-mail address anywhere on their website.

*EDIT* I found a phone number, I'll give em' a call when I get home. If anyone is interested the number for the Honda Motorcycle Division is 866 784 1870

I don't know about predictions but my wish list would be topped by fuel injection (not likely) and water cooled.

This machine, along with its 300EX little brother, is the all time best tight trail quad! Not much they could do to improve on it, except maybe FI and a suspension upgrade.

On another site it's still shown in the line up, just with a "specs coming soon" with it.

I called Honda today to see what the deal was and they told me all new models will be released in September.

And Koopa, the last thing I want to see on the 400EX is water cooling. If you want high maitnence buy a 450R.

High maintenance because of water cooling? Please elaborate how so?

The reason I say that is because I ride alot of trails. Anytime I creep through the slow ones I can feel my 400 warming up. I've never had any problems or anything. I just always worry I'm getting to hot and I get out in the open to wind her out a little to get some air flow.
I said I've never had any trouble and if water cooling will cause trouble count me out.

My aircooled Honda always stayed cooler at lugging speeds than any water cooled machine I have had.
