Quad really turned out good bro! Props to you on a great looking build. The carbon fiber really sets it off. I don't think mine will ever be done with. Mine is torn down getting a radiator upgrade and may go ahead and go 720 with it with some headwork. I snapped a few pics for the Raptor of the month at Raptorforums. I just installed the front hipers any my new Laeger steering stem. I'm seriously thinking about going back to the white plastic on the front for a few months just to swap up a few things. Again congrats on your slick toy!!!!

 

Damn nice ride OP....and this guy ^^^ here too!!!

 

My brother had a 2000 400EX,, Ive never seen any 4wheeler get drowned out that many times and still last.
He changed the oil every weekend cause it was mostly full of water..
Finally did the 440 kit and sold it for what he bought it for 3 years before.

Thats my favorite sport bike.

 

Nice quads guys, I really like the carbon fiber plastics on that 400ex. The raptor is sick to, those things are hard to beat in a drag.

Here is my old banshee


And my current quad, a 2005 yfz 450 that I just finished building.

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Hell yah man, diggen the colors on the yf.. My buddy used to have a banshee, it was a blast to ride, but damn it would wear you out through the woods...

 

well i guess i'll ***** my old bike out...it evolved from

this


to this


to this


to this


final product was a stock bore stock stroke 450r, +6 swing arm, 70" roll out extreme haulers, smooth buffs, custom cut and painted plastics by me, lock out clutch, Vortex X10 ignition, 13.5:1 JE piston, BIG webb cam(imagine that right), NMotion pipe, 44mm Lectron carb on methanol. Made 55rwhp, which was pretty good at the time that i actually got out of the game

 

Yea the 4 stroke is a lot easier to ride in the woods because you can lug it around and it gets traction better.

Heres what mine looked like when I bought it.

Your bike's stance is pretty sick, I love the color combo. My engine is rossier engineering mx national motor and dynoed at 50hp to the wheels on 91 octane.

 

I noticed alot of the 450 guys are running the rossier exhaust, seems to be the lick for them.. My top end was done by a place called PPE, upstate PA.. Stage 3 H cam, good valve job, 11.5-1 weisco, crf timing chain, 450r carb, some sprocket work.. I am hoping to put down in the hood of 40-42 hp to the wheels on a mix.. We'll see though. It surprised the hell out of me when I cracked into it for sure...

 

40hp will be pretty good for a old EX. i miss my bikes alot

 

Sweet, is that a 450 or 700 ?
