Dirt Wheels did it in 1998. The project was featured in several editions.

Umm... The 400EX wasn't even available until the summer of 1998. They used a white Leager's 300EX chassis for the project. I know they did because I remember wondering why they didn't use one based on a 250R.

Dirt Wheels also did one with a 400ex frame.

I remember it well... it had orange plastic and a grey-veined powdercoated frame.
