Service Honda makes one for around $9000.00 But one could be built for a lot less. A 400ex with a good suspension set up, IMO would be similar to a 250R. We have been kicking around the idea of doing one of these Hybrid conversions for some time now. Let us know what you come up with.

Thanks, Mike
