hey khen,
my buddy has a 400EX that i sometimes ride. But when i hope on it and take off, the throttle seems wicked hard to push.. and the clutch is really hard to pull in, i didnt know if that was like that on all of them or this one just needs some greese or cable adjustments..lol. thanks, Melinda Rae.

 

My throttle has always been really easy to push, my clutch was easy at first but now it's more difficult because I went to heavy duty clutch springs. Sounds like the cables are in need of replacement. You can sometimes just lube the cables if the cables aren't worn, but my experience with cables in general is that you're better off just replacing them if they're old. What year is the EX?

 

ya, thats what i was thinking, but wasnt sure. uhh its a 2000.... ill inform him.. he thinks its normal. but when you hop off a Z onto that its like.. uhh, i dont think thats rite.

 

450f??? do you mean the yfz450????

i would go with the Z. best all around

 

CHeck out the March issue of Dirt Wheels, it supports what most of these guys say, a z400 is better

 

the Z/Kfx is deffinitly the best all around quad it has everything u can need on it, it is a little bit quicker then a 400ex as well

 

i did notice that the 400ex is a little cheaoer to mod out, but stock for stock, go with the Z. Both quads are a blast though

 

RAPTOR!!! sorry I could not help myself......[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

If it isnt a z400 digidoo doesnt like it. Dont listen to her....She is very biased.

I agree with the raptor comment also.. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

If you look around you can find a nice 400ex for cheap. Last fall i saw a 440ex with extended arms and axle, shocks, and other stuff for around $2600. All you have to do is look around and you can find some good deals.
