mhargrove,
subtract 135 from 185 that is 50 lbs. not 75 like i said the bottom line is the bottom line !!!
maybe he should loose some weight before he tries that honda again !!! what you think?

OK let me set you strait. It is so funny that some say people on raptors think there god, because thats a lie. They know there god.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] A tweaked up 400ex cant even take a stock raptor that is funny. Hondas are $hit the only good quad they had was the 250r. I have saw a 400ex not even make it up a coal bank riding wide open. Then a raptor come and without a struggle ride right up it . The moral of the story , never and i mean never think that a honda 400ex could take a Yamaha "god" Raptor.

Hey listen i didnt mean to give the wrong impression, i dont have any thing against hondas its just that the people that own them think they can beat a yamaha in a race , thats crazy everyone knows that the Yamaha Raptor is 10 tims the machine a 400ex is even when its bored out to all he!!. So again the 400 ex is ok but it will never compete with the big dogs.
Oh yeah and i just purchased a new suzuki z 400 and that can also take a 400 ex , haha

One thing none of you yamaha guys mention is diplacement. Ur talking about a 400 against a 660 thats a 260cc difference ,thats like tryin to compare a blaster and a blaze440. wether its a 416, 440, or 465 its still a big displacement difference. And bsides the 400ex isnt for dragging its more of a trail/mx bike. A 440 will kill a raptor on a track, theyre heavy and the trannys suck so bad, dont get me wrong i like raptors just not over a 400ex cause all they have is top end.

I just got back from the dunes and i race the nicest 400ex ive ever seen and to my suprise smoked it. I asked him what he had done and he said ... 416 kit, ported,edelbrock carb,full pipe,k&n,jetted,gearing and some other little stuff. Dont get me wrong here im just trying to answer what the guys asked. I know he would have smoked my azz on the track but in the dunes i got him.
Doubler - what do you got done to your 400ex
