[fire x 2000]

Hey guys i'm finally done with my winter project-only 3 months to finish. I think I finally broke the 13g mark. Please let me know whut you think...

[JustRace]

[Dave400ex]

He forgot to Post something.

[Adam496]

[Nausty]

Must be camoflauge???

introducing the new invisible 400ex!

[RideRed400StYlE]

Spent too much money on the quad, and couldnt afford to get the pics developed.. haha

[Dave400ex]

Yeah some Pictures would be Nice.

[CBW]

yeah post em..........i want to see.........:huh

Maybe it was too fast for the camera to catch it!:D

[Dave400ex]

If it`s over 13G that might be his Problem. He better Slow Down.

[zuLi0]

hey speedy, what are some of the mods?

[Dave400ex]

Well let`s hope he has some Mods.

[ChadEXer]

I would like to see it too. im trying to figure out how you hit the 13g's with just a 416. Im building a $3000 motor and Im still not there yet and I cant find out whats really left for me to buy!!!!! i only have $3500 for my bike too though

[Dave400ex]

Chad, I could very Easy spend 13G on a 400EX. I just want to see what His looks like.

[fire x 2000]

:huh I know the picture dident send, i will try to re-postwhen i get home tomorrow, so quit busting my Ba~~s. And yes, its very easy to reach that $ amount. So hopefully I can figure out how to send the pics.

[Dave400ex]

We were just Joking around with you. I want to see a Picture.

[ChadEXer]

Oh I know you could spend that much money easily. Believe me Im not off much from that and im sure I will exceed that mark before Im happy. i just dont understand why if you got that much money to spend you would only go to a 416. I cant wait to see his bike though!!!

[fire x 2000]

Hey I changed my profile to list all the mods so hopefully that will help explain the bike, now if i can just figure out how to post a pic i'll be set. If anyone can help i would appreciate it.

[Dave400ex]

I could see Spending 13G in Chassis Parts. The Biggest Engine I would go is a 440. It sounds like a Nice Quad. I want to see a Picture.

[fire x 2000]

:confused: Well let's try this picture thing again.

[fire x 2000]

:confused: Well let's try this picture thing again.

[fire x 2000]

Ok as you can tell this computer is kicking my *** so if anyone can help with how to post a picture please help.

[Dave400ex]

PM or Email Leo. He should be able to help you.

[ChadEXer]

Email it to me and i will get it posted for you
chad_honea@hotmail.com

[fire x 2000]

hey Warrior man i already tried that, but I think they cant even help the helpless.

[Dave400ex]

Well, atleast you Tried. Chad I Emailed you.

[ChadEXer]

Here is a pic of his bike. he had it sized way to big
It is a very seewt looking bike. I still dont see how with just a 416 hes got 13g's in it thuogh!!
it looks pretty muck like mine will look!!!

[Nausty]

nice;)

[sly400ex]

hey man, that's a kick a** bike!!! I can see it costing 13G

[Dave400ex]

That is Sweet. It`s a XC Quad it looks like. Very Nice.

[fire x 2000]

Hey man thanks for posting my pic, I realized that my pictures are to big after you mentioned that, thanks again

[fire x 2000]

Yea hope to run D-11 and D-12 HS this year and maybe if i grow some ba~~s i might do a couple GNCC's this year, since there are three of them in OH

[Dave400ex]

That is a Cool 416EX. If you do good at the D-11 and D-12 HS Races you should try a GNCC. A GNCC is going to be a Killer though.

[ChadEXer]

It is a good lookin bike!!!

[Dave400ex]

It is a Sweet Looking Quad. What kind of Rear Shock does it Have?

[ChadEXer]

Man you sure you got 13g's in it?? I got more than that on my bike and a $3000 motor and Im close but still havent hit 13 yet!!!!

[fire x 2000]

I do have more than 13g's in it, but the original post i had my wife sitting beside me!! if you know what I mean:devil I would post a picture of all the receipts but everyone already nows my tallent in posting pics.

[Dave400ex]

I find it Hard to believe he has 13G, but I`m sure he does. It looks really Nice.

holy sh** that is one nice looking machine. where did you get that decal kit???? i want it!!!:blah

Your quad is sharp! Good job. Run some GNCC's if you get a chance, they are alot of fun. I ran the macon race, gained alot of experience. You can ride hard or easy, your choice.

[fire x 2000]

To answer your questions (Warrior Man,Crazy400ex) the rear shock has been re-worked and the grafics are from Honda of Troy. As for everyone else thats wants to flame me about the $$, you need to understand that the figure I gave not only included the bike but also the extra parts that i have( 3-sets of plastic,Arens stem,Renthal bars) and the list goes on. So if you still want to flame me then i'm cool with that.

[ChadEXer]

Were not trying to flame you at all. We just find it hard to believe. As you can see in my sig, I have just about everything you do and more and im not listing my extra parts either(front and rear wheels and tires, plastic, bars etc) and I have over $3000 worth of motor work(not including the first 416 I had) and I still havent hit 13g's. Im close but not yet!! The only way I can see it happenning is that you gave full retail for the bike and all the parts you have. I find the very best deals and give bottom dollar for everything I get!! I know how you feel though!! It gets addictive dont it?? You get one thing and you want another:D I was just going to rebuild my motor to the 505, then I decided to get it powdercoated, then i decided to get some more new plastic and graphics, then i wanted complete new chassis, It just keeps goin and goin:D

ChadEXer, have you got any pics of you quad??

[ChadEXer]

Havent got it back together yet but i will very soon!!!

[Dave400ex]

Fire X 2000, Who Rebuilt your Rear Shock and What did they do to it? It is a Sweet Quad. I`m sure you have over 13G`s. I wish I could have 8G. Chad is right, it is a very Expensive Hobby. I wouldn`t want to do anything else though.

where did you order the graphic kit??? i want it!!!! as soon as i figure out where i can order it i will put my order in.

[K_Fulk]

Chadex'r need some help spending money here ar a couple of idea's Rpm axle, front hubs, anti fade hub and tapered bearing carrier. I'm good at spending money hope i helped.:D That should be good for another g.

[ChadEXer]

I dont need any help spendin money!!!! Everything I needed and wanted I got it. i dont really need nothing else,,,but you never know:D

[Dave400ex]

Crazy400ex, I`m sure he got the Graphics from Honda of Troy.

Chad has Spent enough Money already. I could help him Spend some more though. LOL.

[ChadEXer]

I hear ya!! im not even done with mine yet:D

[Dave400ex]

You got a lot of Money into it. You have gotten a lot of Deals on Parts though.

[K_Fulk]

I spent a lot on mine. but i bought a 400 and took a lot of parts off of it and put it on mine and sold it for what i payed for it so i saved a lot of money on it that way.

[Dave400ex]

K_Fulk, That sounds like a Good Idea doing it that Way. This is a Easy Hobby to Spend Money in. It`s Worth all of it though.

[K_Fulk]

I still had to buy a axle and a-arms but i sold the xc arms and axle that came with it. The tough part is finding one cheap enough with all that stuff on it. That was probly the most money ive made in my life for not doing anything. and i saved an easy 2500 compared to the new cost of the parts i kept.

[ChadEXer]

I bought mine not in the best shape and just started replacing everything on it with aftermarket stuff!! Ive got so addicted to this stuff. He!! i even dream about it:D

[Dave400ex]

Well K_Fulk it sounds like you got a lot of Good Parts, but still made Money. You can`t Beat that.

Chad, It is easy to have Dreams about this Stuff. I can just think of the Best Quad in my Head. If I was only as good at Math as I am with Quad Stuff. That would be Nice.

[Andrew400ex]

fire,i cannot believe there's 13g in ur quad. I dont even like how it looks dude. U wanna see a real quad,check out chadexer's. DAMN. Chad u def. gotta show us a pic when it gets back. And i cant wait to see those custom nerfs.:devil

[Dave400ex]

Andrew, I bet there is 13G there. Why would he Lie? He has nothing to Prove to Us. His Quad is very Nice. Chad`s Quad is Nice too.

[ChadEXer]

Well i got to figuring if i would have paid retail on all my stuff it would have been well over 13g's. I get good deals on everything I buy:D Maybe hes not a shopper like me. maybe he just got the money and bought the first thing he saw. i used to be that way. i finally slowed down a bit!!!!
Warriorman. The only thing I havent gotten is the brake and shifter billet levers and the clutch lever and perch. Thats all i like!!
Thanks Andrew. i cant wait to get to ride it!!

[Dave400ex]

Chad, I would think you have over 13G`s. You have Saved a lot of Money by getting Good Deals though. I always look for the Cheapest Price. Well you don`t have much left to Buy. Now you just have to Wait for that Motor.

[fire x 2000]

Your right I dont have anything to prove, except that i'm happy with the way my quad turned out. That was the only reason for this thread. As for the shopping around i do the best i can. As for Andrew400 where's the picture of your quad????? Post pic and let us have a chance to FLAME it.

[Dave400ex]

You are very Proud of your Quad and so is everybody else. I think it Looks Nice. Yeah we can Shop around all we want, but Chad is getting all the Good Deals. Don`t worry about Andrew. I doubt his Looks anything like yours or anybody else`s. Don`t let this Post go to a Flame Battle.

[fire x 2000]

Hey WarriorMan thanks for the reply, a flame battle is the last thing that i want. All i wanted is for everyone to check out my ride THATS ALL !!

[Foxrage]

Nice 400!!! How do you like your enigine work and all that stuff from profab. Where do you live in ohio??

[ChadEXer]

I like his bike. It looks good!

[Dave400ex]

I like it too. It`s Sweet. I want my 400 to look like that.

[ChadEXer]

It looks pretty darned close to what mine will look like. i will have different graphics and seat cover and maybe a red hood and shiny white maier and different color powder

[Dave400ex]

Yeah it should be kind of Close. At least you can have a Idea of what you are Doing. I like the New Silver Plastic Maier has. It`s Sweet.

[Foxrage]

ya i love that silver plastic but i still would rather have fullbore plastic. We got out of school early because of a bomb thret.

[Dave400ex]

A Bomb? Well at least you got to come Home. It`s my B-Day.

Well happy B-day warriorman..:D

[Dave400ex]

Thanks Rico.

[Foxrage]

Your a lier its not your b-day!!!:devil

[Dave400ex]

Yeah I know. LOL.

[400MXer]

Fullbore makes silver plastic....they just email me back...they told me that everynow and then they will make a supply of a diff. color and right now they have silver....DOH....if i only had money right now....i hope they make some more when i get some money.....But if you want some you've got to get it now because it's VERY limited.

[Dave400ex]

It really is my B-Day. I`m getting Old.

I don`t want any. You better Hope they make some more this Winter. If not, Maier is making Silver now.

[400MXer]

I sent them an email asking if they will make some around winter, and if now, do they do it custom.

yeah...if they don't make any...i'll have to get some maier.

[Dave400ex]

Have you seen the Silver 250r in the Shift Add? That is Sweet. It has Maier Plastic. I think the New Maier Plastic looks Good.

[Foxrage]

Thats the only place i have seen the silver plastic besides the c dales.

[Dave400ex]

I really like that 250r. I wish I could find a Picture of that. I will have to Wait for Red Bud.

[ChadEXer]

What about silver plastic with red and black powdercoating and Factory Effex graphics?? I might get me another set of plastics too. I will definately get red\black powdercoating because of my custom nerfs and red\black are my favorite colors!

[Dave400ex]

That might look Ok. I think Red would look the Best. To Bad somebody didn`t have different Colors of Plastic you could try. I bet Red would look Good.

[ChadEXer]

i think Ive decided on a MSR Raptor lever. I can get one for $30. I dont need an expensive one because ill prolly break it anyway!! there is a guy here that owns a shop and he stock them. he stock everything for a 400EX,,,plastic,frames,swingarms,carbs FCR and Edelbrock,cables levers,bearing,seals,lights, absolutely everything. i went there yesterday and its amazing what all he has stocked over there in his shop!!!
he thinks the MSR is the best. he knows how to make it where it wont fray the cable. He says you have to be smarter than the lever and most people arent!! Besides a hydraulic MSR are the best for the $$$$

[Dave400ex]

How much is a New Stock Frame?

Let us know how the Clutch Lever Works.

[ChadEXer]

The only bad thing is he usually charges retail. but its nice he has everything in stock locally if i ever need anything. he has everything!!!

[Dave400ex]

I wish I had a Place around here like that. Nobody Stocks any Good Parts around Here.

[Foxrage]

My dealer doesnt even have a master link or anything there is one but th most they sell is beadlocks and pipes nuthing specila but pro fab baldwin and houser isnt that far.

[Dave400ex]

Man you got Baldwin, Pro Fab, Houser, and Fischer`s is over there too. I wish we had a Place like Baldwin`s around here.
