does any one kno if they make a kit or something to put a speedometer for a 400ex?? or can i get one off of like a sport bike or something??

 

The easiest and cheapest way is just get a gps from a pawn shop. For 35 bucks or so, youll get speedometer, odometer, top speed capture, plus compass, and full gps functions. Plus, if you ever sell...just keep the gps for the next bike. Handlebar mounts are only 15 bucks or so. Ive got one on my 400ex, and its really handy once you get used to it.

 

wat kind of gps do i need?

 

Brand isnt important...they all do the same things, so buy by price alone. The garmin etrex line is about as cheap as it gets, they are about 75 bucks new. No sense in having a 500 dollar unit...its just a target for theives, and if it breaks...thats gonna hurt the wallet.
Check out the local pawn shops, and shoot them a low offer...and see what happens. The mounts can be bought at anyplace that sells new gps units, or ebay has them too.
Most gps unit, especially the cheap ones are meant to be easy to use, and in about 5 minutes, youll have it figured out.

 

i got one off ebay for about 70 bucks. it was easy to install. it just bolted on ....

 

alright cool ima look for em at the pawn shop!!

have you heard about removeing the choke on the 400ex to inprove air flow??
if so would you recamend doing it?

 

i wouldnt remove the choke from my 400ex for the simple fact that i don't think it would start cold without the choke.

 

Removing the choke on your EX will be a waste of time and actually hurt performance if your engine is close to stock internally. Same effect as adding a larger carb to a stock engine.... it's a step backwards.

As for speedos,... I've always liked the TrailTech
