450 versus 400

[MXRACER86]

I just want to know if the new 450's are alot better for motocross then the 400ex. I just want to know if there are any guys racing motocross still with 400ex's, and would they get rid of there 400's for the new 450's? I have a full mx banshee and I just rode a full mx 400ex with all the suspension done and only a pipe for motor work and I really liked it. Just need your guy's opinion.

The 450's are better stock for stock but if you can ride well or you have built the 400 you can make up for the lack of power.

My KFX400 out runs plenty of 450R but I can out ride those guy. There have been a couple that will out ride me but it just depends on the rider.
