My Impressions of the FX400
#1
I got to ride a FX400 at the Ash Dumps last night and I must say I want one, Very Impressive!
Motor Performance
This thing has a real nice bottom end, but I must say that the Mid-Range is the best part of it's power band, It also has a very good top-end, I found the throttle Response to be incredable, I also think it has the best shifting tranny of any other Hi-Po Quad.It does Vibrate a little and the engine definitly makes some odd sounds, It is also the loudest stocker out there, but I love the looks of that Exhaust. Motor:9.5
Handling
The Cannondale is really precise with the turning, and I also find it very stable, This thing is an excellent slider also, it has nice and light steering effort, Another Thing I also like is the near perfect center of gravity. It is an Excellent jumper also, very flingable. Handling:9.8
Suspension
With me weighing around 155LB, I find the Rear shock to be perfect, but the machine I rode, was set up for someone weighing around 215LB, and that made the front shocks a little on the harsh side for me, but nothing that cant be Adjusted. Shocks:9
Brakes
This thing has excellent brakes, they have excellent power and feel. Brakes:9.5
Ergos
This thing is roomy, and the foot pegs and handlebars are perfect for me, but the seat is extremely hard, but it is shaped good for moving around on, Ergonomics:9.5
Fit and Finish: 10
Overall: 9.5
If there is anything I would change, It would be the seat and I would also add an engine skid.
