This thing had all the goods. it is an alba but it also has lots and lots of other parts. carbon fiber gaurds, billet engine gaurds, nerf bars, racks, upgraded suspension??etc. I dont even know all of the custom parts on this thing yet. i will investigate a little more tonight when its delivered. I bought it for 6400$ otd. It is in showroom condition. they said the guy had 12k into it. im sooooo excited!!! cant wait to ride!


my question is , what are the hp numbers with the alba kit? i think i read they do an airbox mod , pipe, jet kit and dyno tune

thanx guys. Ill post some pics soon. this thing is bad ***. even has a chrome gas cap!!

You didnt buy this directly from ALba as a new quazd did you? Sounds like you bought it from someone, or maybe Alba was reselling it.. Just curious..

WHY would anyone trade that in on a Z400???? Just gotta have something new? Someone has too much money on their hands.

If you beleive dirt wheels you'l have around 46 hp. I have Albas pipe kit jets and K&amp;N filter and it hauls butt. Its not noticably any faster than a Yoshimura piped or Big gun piped etc bike. My guess is low 40's to 46 hp. Good deal.

yeh they said he had more money than brains. they said he had this $70,000 pick up. I didnt know they made one that cost that much.One of my buddies at the dealer said the customers friend said that he was scared of it.

I looked last night and the air filter and airbox are stock. The pipe is a slip on gyt-r (gys-r??)and all of the extra parts are factory(gyt) parts. suspension is stock. but it has:

front gaurd(bars)
underneath gaurds
rear rack
grips, gas cap
billet brake rervoir cap
billet triple tree
billet boot gaurds
billet engine gaurds
nerf bars
heal gaurds
extra front head lights
alba sticker kit and seat cover??
gyt yamaha pipe
custom shifter
swingarm gaurd
carbon fiber side panels
carbon fiber front by the headlights

I rode it last night and it felt great. Pretty damn fast for a dirtbike!!! I think I will be very happy with it. i would take it that a k&amp;n would be a good idea??
