Thanks for all the replies!!!
First I should tell you that I changed my name from mxquadracing to mx400exer. I thought since I got a NEW bike, I needed a NEW name.
Some are probably wondering why the sudden change? Well, about a month ago my son was born. [RED](A GIFT FROM ABOVE!!!)[/RED] My 250R was set up to race, and strictly that. Every one knows race gas is expensive. ($4.25 a gallon around here.) So my wife and I talked about a change. (My idea!!) We discussed the cost of pump gas vs. race gas, and the other costs of racing. She knows how much I enjoy racing, and how much of a stress reliever it is for me. She knows how miserable I would be without being able to race. So I suggested that I sell my 250R, and find a race ready 400EX. (Some what race ready.) She agreed!!! The day came that I sold my "R", and I found me a virtually race ready 400EX on the internet. The 400EX does not have any motor mods other than a pipe, and silencer. (Just the way I want to keep it.) I have no knowledge of a 4 stroke, compared to a 2 stroke. So I'm just asking others to share their secrets, and knowledge with me. I haven't been able to ride my 400 yet. Between the rain, and all the HONEY DO'S, I haven't had the time. BUT this coming week, I plan to make time!!! First thing is to make sure all the maintenance is done, and everything is in working order.
Please, all you die hard 4 stokers, send me some of your tricks, and tips.
THANKS, and GOD BLESS!!!

I know this dosen't really answer your question , but how do you like your Legacy shocks? Rhino right, They are the no preload type right. I am getting new shocks for my race quad and I was wondering how you liked them.

I still haven't had time to ride er yet. I don't know what the suspension is going to feel like. As for the steering stabilizer, I did notice the PEP steering stabilizer on my 250R. I hope this one is about the same.
I did get my K & K case saver today. Pretty sweet looking.
