Title: o3 z400 frame Post by: klutchbuster400 on February 10, 2006, 10:34:17 PM i've heard the 03 z400 frame was weak, but just how weak is it? i plan on going to the track alot more often now, and i would like it if my frame didnt snap on me after hitting a bump, so do you think i shoud get a gusset kit RIGTH away, or should i be good for a while?

ASK ALL TERIAN PERFORMANCE AT TOP OF FORUM. :) Title: Re: o3 z400 frame Post by: backinsaddle on February 14, 2006, 12:39:58 PM Gusset kits (do it yourself) are $100 at Rath Racing, $175 at LoneStar. Seems the cost varies substantially depending on who makes them. I'm fairly certain I've seen them for the yfz for less than $100??
