ATV Review: 2011 Honda 400X

Want to know what we thought of the 2011 Honda 400X, well read on my friends!

With frame geometry inspired by Honda’s own legendary 250R two-stoke, the 400EX is considered one of the cornerstones of the Japanese OEMs collective decision to return to producing stock performance ATVs.

The 2011 Honda 400X is essentially that same machine introduced twelve years ago with a few swaps and upgrades integrated along its lifespan. The most notable of these includes a redesign of the plastic/ headlight configuration to more closely mimic the appearance of its higher performance brother, the TRX450R.

Are you happy that Honda keeps the 400X essentially the same or do you wish that they would make some major overhauls to the quad?

Adding reverse was the best thing they have done to it since it came out.
Some with they would go to fuel injection and water cooled.
But I think the 400EX is perfect the way it it.
