i'm gonna go with my lil bro's stock 250ex as the best wheelie machine. i can't shift gears while wheeling, but in first gear, i could go forever. same on a 400EX. the 450r has too tall of a first gear for me, i like to wheelie from slow speeds, using pure torque to get the front end up.

well the 400ex is a variant or a z400

i would say an ozark because you cant be scared to flip with its humongo racks

a sport quad i would have to say dvx400 because i never rode the z or kfx it pops right up and goes pretty good i wheelied my friends field in 3rd gear, without trying it just popped up and i just held on for my life lol

The easiest quad for me to wheelie a raptor I like where the balance point is more than the 400's.

i have a 400ex almost comp. stock with the exception of rear tires. front tires, and front sprocket and starter solenoid. I USED to weelie this thing constantly.... through a field that is 1.2 miles across... and i could weelie half way :-/ but in order for me to do this i would 9 times out of 10 do it from a stand still... i would come to a comp. stop put one foot int he rear grab bar and then sorta dump the clutch while using the gas to pull it up. i can hang them sometimes for ever in 1st gear but i shift most of the time. i ended up strippin the front sprocket right over... all the teeth gone. shabam. pretty knew chain and sprockets so i only replaced the front sprocket in thise case.... i usually would replace both sprockets and the chain all at the same time... but sicne they were knew enuff... but yah thats the only down side i have weelieing my 400ex

josh from CV boyz --- what after market parts do you have on your EX's? who films ur videos? and how long have you guyz been riding?


the only tricks i can do on my EX are.... no footers/handers and when i weelie i can grab the front bumper.... weelie w/ one hand..... one foot flip my friends off.... and thats about it... ... and combo's of what i just said.

Hey man...Mine is basically just stock....I have a K&N, jet kit and a T4 slip on. Then a few bolt ons like nerfs and rims/tires, and silver plastic.

We normally do all of our own filming...friends, family, etc....One of our guys owns a production company and is real good with that stuff...unfortunatly he moved, but he still does our editing (we'll have a new vid up soon...all the ones on the site are SO OLD it's embarassing).

We've all been riding different amounts, but we have been together as a "team" for around 2-3 years.
