my friend has a honda 400 ex with a big bore 440 kit and a stage 2 hotcam plus he runs a 12.5 compression piston and will not come even close to my yfz however, i believe at top speed he might be a little faster but nothing drastic and also the 400s have a bigger front sprocket than the 450s or at least my yfz but at most i believe he could run 78-80 and mine tops out 74-76 with stock gearing but that is probably the most efficient for a drag i might be able to go up to a 15 tooth sprocket but i have yet to find one

They are not really the same class by far anymore.
So which way to go now is pretty clear depending on what you want...
Brutal simplicity... Or high tech headaches...
I have acquired respect for both...
I have to have since I have a 400EX, liquid cooled 2 stroke, and a liquid cooled fuel injected 450R.
I prefer the technology over the simplicity.... until it breaks... lol...
I really liked the '09 Z400 when I was looking, and it might have even been the best choice for me... but I got the leftover 450R for $1,600 less. Couldn't pass that up.
I dunno on the Raptor ergos....... it seems that the people who I hear complain most about them are Honda riders.... I don't know what the catch is there but two of the most "Honda crazy" people I know, both of whom ride 450Rs complained about the 700 ergos.... Even Reconranger here, who is a Honda guy says the same thing......
Yet as you point out, every magazine says different.......dunno its odd....

The ride height is just too high.
Some shock work would fix that right up and get it real close though.

WOW! I don't remember using this forum for sending rude comments to one another. You dont have to be a total DICK about it. All I was doing was giving my input and what I was told about the quad I bought if it's not really true then so be it I dont give a ****, it's just what I was told and with a 130lb girl like me, that thing flys like nothin is even on it. Im not swaping lies, Im not flapping my gums, if I were doing that I would be spam posting it all over this F-ing forum. I use this forum for all the same reasons everyone else uses it for. I didnt think my comment about my quad going that fast would cause so many people to freak out about it, if it's that big a deal then yur the moron for even wasting time on making a big deal out of it. If you can't handle small talk then F OFF!
It means to try to reverse direction in a metaphorical sense. It is often used to describe someone who says something and then tries to take it back. Politicians are often accused of back peddling when they say something controversial. The metaphor comes from riding a bicycle. If you try to make it go in reverse you can peddle backwards, but on most bikes the gears just spin futilely. Which is the same result as trying to unsay something you've already said. It is futile.
You said your bike "clocked out at 110mph", and even reaffirmed it by claiming it was checked by a cop for you. As was said in congress recently, "YOU LIE!!!"
