I traded my 01 400ex for a 01 ds today and wow dose that thing go. The suspention is awsome compared to the ex's. Is it posible to do a wheelie on this thing or it to front heavy. I have grown to enjoy wheelies sence purchasing the ex. If not oh well. I have only got to ride for a half hour in the rain this afternoon, and the few small jumps i could find where smooth compared to the ex. I shall enjoy riding this thing a lot in the future.


p.s. how well does it do in the snow? I am hopeing it does simaler to my old ex. Would a set of Pure sport Realitors do any good? The snow here in northern iowa blows real hard most of the time so you just go over top. I ride a lot of snowmobile trails in the winter and hopefuly it wont be to heavy. Thanks
