Very True! I know someone who got hurt pretty bad not too long ago. Not saying any names. **Ahem cough Erik cough**. Glad to hear your staying with the 400's. If ya don't mind me askin, what all is done to the 400? Big Bore/Stroker? Cammed? The works?

  Everything except the big bore. I think you don't get very much more out of the big bore. The only other thing I'll need is a aftermarket stem like a Tag.
  It's been port & polished too.Plus, it's got all the suspension-A-arms, swingarm, Elka's axle.He takes care of it and does all the work himself.
   I think I even caught him with  armor all once. Did you see the pics in the open discussion post-Photobucket pics?

Easy there or I'll take you to the doctor and I'll have him make you turn your head and cough.

No I didn't see em I'll go check them out. Your right about the big bore situation in a way. But supposedly, and according the guru's on Z400central.com, an Athena 434 kit, is somewhat more reliable then stock. You get a brand new cylinder, with wider water jackets for increased cooling. Then you could add a hotrod stroker crank and make it a true 450 if you wanted to, and be pretty darn reliable, and still be able to run premium pump gas. But I wouldn't do any of that without both cams, DRZe valve springs, and 3/4 timing chain, and a bigger carb. I really do not like the mikuni BSR 36mm that comes with the Z400, it really restricts it. I have a few buddies that threw on a 450r 42mm carb, and a YFZ FCR-39mm carb, and it really helps open up the taps!

Erik, my bad cuz, you know I'm just bustin your ballz No hard feelins lol.

   I'll have to see one day if I have enough income for those kind of mods. It already runs really strong. The QS's you really need more torque, and this thing has plenty of that. If I try to go any faster through the woods, I might hurt myself.
  I've seen TRX-9 ride at Lakeland. It sure looks fun, but I cased a jump at Sunshine and I hurt my back pretty good. My second time on a MX track, and I was trying to clear everything.I know I'll get hurt because I don't like to back off. I think I'll stick to the ground and smaller jumps!!
