Known z400 problems
there are only 2 thing that i can come up with . the engine valves could be made of better stuff and the wheel bearing front and back have no seals on the inside of the hub which causes premature bearing failure , if there was away to put more grease into the hubs no seals would be a good idea, it like some one had a great idea and never fallowed it through . the valve are mostly a high performance thing ,if people did not ride like they stole it they would last longer.
all and all the ltz is just about bulletproof

Are there no grease fittings to pump more grease in? If there is a spot to drill and tap for them it would be an easy fix.

Known z400 problems
A friend of mine has an '03 that I'm thinking about buying. He has had it for almost 3 years and has only rode it a few times. I don't know about the original owner though, it could have been gang-raped while he had it. I'd like to get into some GNCC style racing, thats why I'm doing some research on it. I can handle losing if I am outridden but mechanical failure pisses me off. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
He is asking $2300 but I bet that $2k cash would buy it. It looks very good and clean, no leaks and no damage, so it should be fairly easy to spot a crack if it exists.
