Just buy the duncan racing 470 kit and beat everything, yfz, raptors, zilla's, ok maybe not zilla's, but everything else.

Shoot for the stars and call it good if you hit the moon.

Good luck on your quest

I was thinking more along the lines of a solid rocket booster!

first of all I dont care what you hate!second, the z400 is great for trails, and thats about it. Its a weak design that WILL break. the motors are good but the rest of the quad is built a little on the week side.NOW if your do anything other than trail rideing, sell the z400 , buy a honda or yammy....or you can just replace the subframe WHEN it breaks replace the frame WHEN the shock mounts fail replace the swing arm WHEN it breaks replace the axel WHEN it bends replace the stearing stem WHEN it bends.Plus you can put in about $3000 dollars in just mods to make it keep up with the yzf....oh and dont forget , when you add the extra HP, you will have to do something about swing arm fully rebounding and staying to buck you off.HOWS THAT FOR BIAS? if you think IM wrong then it obviouse you dont read up about YOUR own quad!!!!so like I said in my origianl post....NOTHING
After reading your post , I am convinced you are a complete moron . 1st you should not believe the things you read , 2nd in one year from now we will see how many flaws the YFZ's have . 3rd if your such a Honda / Yamaha fanatic then why even post/look at the Suzuki forums.

oh o i think someone is getting jealous here.Face it when comparing the z to the raptor.Its very compatative.An dgiv eit a break it its 1st year in production.The raptor had a tranny prob for 2001 remember??Just a few tweaks here and there and its all good.For the yfz however you need to put 3 grand and it will a nice quad.The yfz is a motocross quad.If u dont motorcross than dont worry.The light frame dosent matter in the trails.Just the suspension the width,the hp,And a good rider.

In other words b]Shak[/b raptory knows when a flame war will start and he's probably knows I won't take no shi... crap off of you or nobody else. I made an innocent enough comment saying I hate that and you get all bent out of shape. The originator of this thread just wanted help you gave him nothing but a smartelick comment. Be glad I don't know you smarting off to me like that. Sorry RAPTORYFM660r I wasn't biased in my opinion. I know mod for mod the z won't stand up to the yfz, I was just trying to be helpful to the originator of the thread. I won't post another negative comment on this subject raptory so if you delete it I don't blame you but if you could let me just retaliate this one time. I hope I don't think about Shak with my sparring partners tommorrow.

Ridley probably pretty much hit the nail on the head in his post shoot for the level of yfz you want to beat and mod accordingly or just go by the saying if you can't beat em join em.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
