After reading this thread I don't think this machine has only 75 hours on it.

I would pass. There is always another and you will know!

For this reason alone I think it has more than 75 hours. A lot, more.
What does the chain and sprockets look like and how much adjustment in the
chain is left?

The tires had about 25-35% tread left, and they had plugs all over them. The chain and sprockets he said were the originals and they looked pretty good. He told me that the tires are worn from riding in the street. I dunno. He was very honest and strait forward. He showed me all the receipts and papers and told me where he did most of his riding.

How many other 400ex's have you looked at for a comparision. I would say here in the very near future other quads will be showing up for sale.

Have you checked out the NADA guide for values?
