That depends on where you ride, tell us and then we can help you better. Also, have you considered a Cannondale if you do sell the 400EX?

What? You never get your money back when you add aftermarket parts. That's just lost money. The best you can hope for when selling a bike with aftermarket parts is getting back half of what you invested and that's if it's brand new parts. Or you sell the aftermarket parts seperatly and return the quad to stock and sell. Then you'll only get 3/4 worth at best of brand new aftermarket parts and blue book on quad.

i have a cannondale cannibal and it will rape a raptor and a 400ex VERY easily. the raptor just sits too high, keep the 400ex or get a cannibal.

I would still put extras on it and then sell it because my friend sold his and got more back than what he paid for it because he of the extras new rims, pipes, air filter, oil filter, tires, &amp; co. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

I like how I sit up on my Raptor. It makes me feel good and those extra inches in the air allow me to spot a cannibal in advance and then I can go run and hide till the danger passes.
