Iam thinking abotu getting a 2000 or so 400ex
I really love to pit ride and that is where i usually go! i mean my mojave works good! but it just doesent jump or handle liek a 400ex does it??? and i just want to knwo if a 400ex is a good tuff bike?? thought from people who have them woudl be great! thanks

 

My last bike was a 400EX.Yes it is VERY reliable.Yes it handles awesome.Yes it is underpowered.If you dont want a Powerhouse the EX is an excellent ride.Consider a Kawi or Suzuki 400 they have more power and handle as good as an EX. late,zubbeyboy

 

I'm thinking of a 400 ex too. How much do they cost? You say the suk 400 is pretty good too, but are they as reliable and easy to work on as the ex? I really didn't think about the suk that much.

 

The EX is VERY reliable like Lateralus says, I think it will outlast a z400, the z does have its advantages though liquid cooled, DOHC, reverse...

 

Ya i know that the KFX is a bit better! But what i really want to know is if the 400ex is a good pit bike! And i think no matter what! Compared to my MOJAVE the 400ex will feel liek a power house! And I dont have that kinda of cash toi get one of the KFX Iam only 16 took me long enought to get enought to maby buy the 400ex!
I was also thinking about maby a banshee? what are they liek compared to teh 400ex? not power wise cuz i know the banshee kills it! But in jumping and handleing and stuff!
Thanks guy keep the info coming

Sorry guys forgot to ask! Have there been any KNOW problems for teh 400ex liek things they are knowen for blowing or such? and are there eletric staters good? do they last?

 

the 400 ex is a proven quad! But I would go with the z 400[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

i say get the 400ex.......

 

Many of the people I ride with have 400Ex's and love them. I think that best thing about them is the simplicity. Honda may not have the fastest or the newest tech but what they use is generally proven. My civic still uses a distributor in an age where everyone uses ignition modules! My friend moved from a Mojave up to a 400EX and he is very happy with it. I will never be able to ride like him. He USES it and it has been WAY more reliable than the Mojave.

 

you will love the 400ex, it handles 2x's better than the banshee and jumps 2x's better than the shee, im in the process of trying to sell mine, with all the mods listed below but the stage 2 cam and piston, if anyone is interested pm me = )
