A friend of mine is thinkin about gettin g a quad. He has a CR250 but hes sick of denting and bending all his pipes, hes gone through 3 silencers and 2 pipes the past year and hes sick of the problems. I said that if he wants to get he a quad he should get a YFZ or a TRX because i think that'd be the closest he could get to his CR but he said he doesnt really want a quad totally built for racing and that he wants a 400. Well imidiately we thought of the Z400 just because ive read shootouts saying that if the power plant was bored up to a 450 that quad could be unstoppable outa the box so if u dont mine can u tell my he should or shouldnt buy a Z400?

 

I love my Z. as for the rest the YFZ will do 72 right out of the crate
The Z 62/65 and the 400ex a little slower but its a very reliable quad
all can be modded for speed as you can tell with mine. my buddy has a YFZ
very little mods and he still beats me racing. but for trail riding its a toss up between the Z and the ex
but I would go for the Z . the best thing to do is go sit on one and see how it feels to him and go from there

 

Alright thnanx, ill mention that to him, hes still debating over a CRF450 cuz hes sick of his two stroke but i have a feeling he might get a Z because they're alot cheaper

 

I love my z400 and your friend will love it to if he got one i have never herd of any complantes about one. I hav ridden the 450r and yfz and yes hey r much faster but the z400 is the best all around quad and if u start modding hte z you cna make it faster then a yfz/450r for cheaper then buying one and puttin and exhuast jetting etc.
