Well soon-to-be buying a 400Ex as soon as my Blaster sells. Now when I get it I am going to be modding it up left and right.

Here go the questions.
The type of riding I do is: Trails, hill climbs, dunes (when I get a chance), rocky terrain, hard pack, just about every type really.

Mods I would like to do
Exhuast: Best pipe, price
Tires: Great traction, good looks, price (maybe rims as well.
Nerfs and handlebars:
Am thinking about the 440 kit in the near future.
Jet kits/Air filters

List best parts you have delt with and worst, prices if you could.

Thanks in advance.

 

Mods I would like to do
Exhuast: id say either big gun, or a white bros pipe.
Tires: the stock ohtsu's are suposedly th best for them.
nerfs and handlebars:?????? i dont know
about the 440 kit, it would be beter value to get the 410 kit i think it is, and u can fix that just as good as the 440, for less money, look around.
i couldnt advise u on filter or jets, i dont know.

01 400EX yellow On its way!

 

sorry i forgot to take out "mods id like to do"
just over look that.

 

ive heard the 416 kit is the way to go, revs better, snappier, more reliable, and cheaper. hope i helped. post pictures when you are done!

 

The stock tires suck major *****... Get some shreadders if you are ridding hard pack... Get some paddles for the sand riding you do... I like what i got..

 

skunky when your bike is up to temp are you able to touch the case and oil reserve with your hand.
my banshee case I can touch with my hand but my 400 is hot. Is this to hot.

 

Pipe: FMF Powercore IV-2 SA w/powerbomb header or
White Bros E-Series Pro Meg w/header
Handlebars and Bumper: Tag T2 (look like pro-taper)
AC Racing w/mudscreen
Tires: I would go with Razrs in the rear. 18" razors are coming out soon. They are great tires. Yes the stockers suck horribly. Two of my buds have stockes. Front tires i would go with the Nacs' Grooved MX Radials. Douglas .190 rims

 

no way.. It is too hot... I have burnt myself before grooved front radials are sweet.

 

thats what i ment 416, sorry.... =)


01 400EX Yellow, This week

 

Why don't you just get a Raptor, your hopped up EX still won't be able to get close to one, and you'll probably save some cash too.
