what are your thoughts on the lt400, do you mean the Z400? as for me, it looks sweet, everything the 400EX should be if they intend for you to race it.

mrp, i have raced at ponitoc 886 mx track and in warrior (ironman) mx track in birmingham, al. it has been at least two years since i last raced (had two kids). just got back into riding and i'm looking forward to doing some racing this year. i rode in pearl, ms before they closed the track (never raced there though). there does not seem to be alot of tracks in miss. several great tracks in birmingham though (mill creek, corner, chandler mountain, etc). there is a riding track in shannon, ms and a riding track in gordo, al. i have heard they will be an indoor mx race in starkville, ms in febuary, but i have not confirmed this yet. yes, i was referring to the z400. it looks great but i would prefer to be riding a trx450r honda. i'll just have to wait and see. mrp let me where you ride. airtime[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

hey I have been reading the motorcycle mags lately and they rave more about the YZ 426 than the honda 450, how come nobody is craving this is a quad? it is cause yamaha cant make a good chassis?

I think because Honda is claiming 55 hp for the crf450 and the yammie is about 42 give or take. Even if Honda would put the motor in a chassis they would tone it down some.
