It all depends how you ride. For example if your going to be racing a lot and want a pure race machine then get a 450 but if you want a quad that could ride trails, tracks or dunes then just beef up your 400 becuase it has the handy reverse feature and it is a great all around quad. Those are just my $.02 i hope this helps.

If money is no object, build it to a 440. Otherwise, you're expecting to much from the Z. It's not even in the same league as the race quads & wasn't intended to be either. It's meant to be a respectfully powerfull sport/trail quad, not a drag racer or MXer (which I presume is where you mean the 450s are giving you fits) Besides, drag racing quads is next to pointless in my opinion. Any dope can drive fast in a straight line. Take 'em to the woods & trails and see who's laughing when reverse is needed & sheer horsepower isn't.


By the way......... welcome to the forums.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
