Dude, the 400ex is a high watermark for all 400 cc quads. Then engine is bullet proof, it handles, it jumps, and it crashes well. I have a buddy that ramed his Z400 over the same log I rammed my 400ex over and thru. I kept going with out a mark, we had to replace almost his whole front end. Yeah, the Uki's/Maha's/Kawa' are faster, but how many Baja 1000's have they won? I bought mine to ride, not to work on. Although I don't mind a few beers and wrenching on it a little bit, but that should be to mod it up a little, not to fix stuff that shouldn't be breaking. You can't beat honda man........and for about a extra grand, you can shut alot of people up on one.
Amen.

You dumb$hits if it werent for the 400ex wouldn't be getting all of the neew high performance quads on the market.
It STARTED the revolution of 4 stroke high performance machines. Every one can thank this quad for doing the sport a big favor.
Scramblered i guess you are right you have a scrambler. They are the sickest quads ever made let me tell you. My truck is lighter than of those. I just love that automatic transmission also, it really gets you flying

I think that credit goes to the Banshee!!! If it wasnt for IT would we even have sport machines???? HONDA bailed out of the sport machines when the lawsuit arose, DID YAMAHA??????? Nope Yamaha never quit making the banshee while HONDA gave up because they were scared!!!! SO YOU BEST GIVE CREDIT WHERE IT IS REALLY DUE!!!!

Why does all of you say the 400ex is slow? i beat most of the Z with mine and its stock .in dirtwheel (I know it can be false)they did a 300y drag between a 400ex and a z 400 and the z finished 0.5second in lead !!!thats nothing. you say no power no speed , i hit 69 mph on the garmin rhino gps with mine and last summer i beat A banshee (one of the worst driver i ever seen and on grass ground)and i beat 4 z/kfx 400 and i beat my friend blaster easily with all the mod he have Porting, toomey b1 pipe,bored,v-force,dynojet.k&n i think the 400ex is one of the best atv in the world so stop bashing them

Was I talking about the 2 stroke revoulution????????????? i beleive not and if i am not mistaken i beleive honda came out with the 250r before the banshee.....yes i am right about that and we all know what the 250r did to the sport. I am talking about all of the 4 strokes that are now coming out thanks to what???? i believe the 400ex. Read my post to see where i said 4 STROKE!!!!!!!

Besides give it a few more years and we can all say good bye to the 2 strokes!!! It is a shame though.

I hear you man, i think its just something with us 400ex owners, i have also beat all of those quads that you listed and mine hit 68.7 on the gps. The 400ex has probably the quickest revving engine when it comes to low end to mid range, that is where i get my big lead on everybody, it is just that top end that will get me but who care about top end, i dont know about you but i never blazin down the trail at 68mph
