Ya i no  ;)  but its a toy and looks cool. its like a show bike so therefore it has a purpose.

i got nothing against it,its your bike and you can do whatever the f**k you want to do to it.

it is going in the barell races, 1st place for team WTF coming up...this bike will dominate the 2wd class and we got brutes to run the 4x4 class...

i saw it running around today, pulling 12 o clock wheelies in 3rd gear with all the power.  Just hitting the throttle and the front end climbs right up, those tires added at least 20hp to the crank.

wow that is pointless, not only is that bike not intended for deep mud, but what really gets me is having those big mud tires on the front when they aren't even driven wheels.

and those are 14" rims too aren't they? lol, thats what ya call more money then sense.

it does look different, so you achieved what you were after i guess. good luck with it, your wheel bearings and axle bearings are going to hate you.

the bikes gona be torn to sh*t quick. between it eating up chains,sprokets,wheel bearings,probably tie rod ends,control arm bushings. for the amount of time that youre going to have into this thing why dont you try and sell it and buy another utility?????

98sheeps look at what mistercobin  he answerd it all very easy.

and for tie rod breakage and lil things like that  they are beeing beffed up  gonna be running hime joints in front end.  so yes to make you happy i no its gonna wear parts faster than normal but i am 100% ok with it and why sell it for  another 4x4?  i gonna keep it and go get a brand new brute force 750 in next few months dont worry we ride one day

Is that the 400 you talked about running with 450's?

You build something for yourself and use it... it is NOT POINTLESS!  Congrats on the build!  You might (like they already said) want to put a different tire on the front.  It does look cool but it might actually "plow" the mud a little.  It looks good though  :ThumbsUp.gif

just wondering where did u get those rims and tires?  Thats the exact set i used to have on my brute force..


Title: Re: amped up kfx 400
Post by: crom A zone on June 17, 2009, 10:52:47 PM
i traded a kid on this fourm maybe a year ago.  but u can get the ag kit on most of the web sites that sell big foot kits.  just becarefull i belive itp is starting to make the newer ones and rubber is not as thick as old ones. (from what i told) they also make 2 sizes from what i hear also   the 27 version and also a 25 version but both are on 14 inch rim
