[Pappy]

read some of the ALREADY posted comments or threads. it would answer almost any question you have and if it doesnt THEN make a thread.

it cracks me up that people cry and moan when they are too damn lazy too find the information thats been posted a zillion times!


btw...whats the best pipe for a 400ex:blah:

[Quad18star]

LOL . I'll admit .... I've probably been the lazy person you're talking about once or twice .

And the best pipe for a 400ex is the Whatchamakallit pipe . Guaranteed to throw your 400 over the 65HP mark. Very hard pipe to find though ..... ;)

[Mofo Racing]

Ok I found the pipe but I need help on the jetting.
:devil:

[jak1389]

[blue416ex]

is it for sale

[wilkin250r]

Ok, I've got the powerbong Lite full system, 18 inch holeshots on the rear, 19 inch holeshots on the front. I've got the stock carb, I'm using a 158 main, a 42 pilot, needle clip on the 3rd position, choke removed, a K&N filter, stock air boot, snorkel removed, and my airbox lid is in the 3rd drawer of my toolbox under 3 wrenches, 2 screwdrivers, and a nudie magazine.

What should my gearing be for MX?

[E-ATV-Racing]

You might want to try a belt drive for MX. Snow mobiles use then with great sucess for snow cross, and you don't even have to shift!!

[2004exrider]

wo wo wo :confused: hold on one second, if your air box lid is in the 3rd drawr down your engine is running way to rich mines in the first drawer with my socks and has never ran better. just a suggestion

as much as i agree with you, i like it when people post repetative questions, not only does it make me feel smart when i know the answer but also without it the forums would die down. And usualy more threads bring in more people to add more knowledge to what has been posted which is always good.

The way i learned all that i have in the last 5 or so years here has all been through reading recent threads. I wouldnt know half the random facts because i wouldnt have searched for them.

Anyway i still strongly encourage people to use the search button for simple genric answers.

LMFAO

[RiderTRX400ex]

airbox lid? whats that.. my 400 didnt come with that, and airbox, or an air filter... just a intake boot. Runs great. Dirt just flies through the motor... i drained all my oil so i could jump higher... i count on air for most of the lubing:devil:

[Eddiesanders250]

ya i know if you drain your oil you can jump so much better. it feels so much lighter too.

[450rrider#55]

I have a 300ex with with baffle removed, wheel spacers, and k&n filter. I get my buddy's yfz on takeoff everytime but I run 5lbs of tire pressure and he runs 6 plus he weighs ten pounds more than me so I know that probably has something to do with it.:eek2: Sorry had to get in on the fun.

[DaveEX7]

Just take all the bolts out of your sprokets... that's 5 hp at least

hey i was wanderin if people could post some pics of there quads?

how bout it guys

[troutman561]

anyone know what jetting i should use for being 1000ft below sea level, im running a sock over a k&n since i cant afford the outwear and i have the powerbong lite without the head pipe just the muffler, and 5 different brand of racing equipment stickers...

btw its so much faster w/o the head pipe

[250xridamatt]

Who wants to join my $50 and under build off? By the way, does anyone know if I can put lt50 shocks on my 400ex to make it ride really low to the ground for when I race mx? I might be able to get those for $50

[troutman561]

oh yea, and my moms friends dads uncles cousin best friends grandfather twice removed 2nd cousin who works at honda says the 06 450r will have reverse, e-start, and u will beable to make the 2 front tires one to ahve a racing 3-wheeler

[wilkin250r]

My dad is such a jerk, all I did was steal his car, crash it, and then steal his work truck and crash that, too, and now he won't let me take the quad he bought for me and go riding with my friends.

[nebjamin]

I never had my quad up to top speed so I put it on blocks and floored it. Now it wont start. What should I do?

take a hammer hit it a fwe times then put sand in the tank...it should fire up

i heard putting sugar in the gas tank will make my bike run really sweet so my question is this should i use 89 octane even though my manual says that nithing below 91 should be used also is it better to use an air compressor, tire pump, or my mouth when adding air to my tires i am running a sur trac on the right rear, a kenda knarly on the left and a pir of goodyears off this old abandoned car fromm down the street up front could this be why it pulls to one side while doing wheelies? and what would my top speed be if i added a 350x motor onto my exsiting 400ex motor and can i hook up a blaster engine to ,y front wheels so i can have a 4 wheel drive 400ex would it be called a 400ex4wd how much could i "sale" my 400ex4wd for would someone go buy me a new 450r and take the 400ex4wd in exchange for it and since i am trying to "sale" the 400ex4wd for 3500, i will take 2500 for and and deliver it to you for free even though you live over 1000 miles away...thanks

oh has nebody seen of the new gasgas/honda/yamaha yfz1000 trx wild, this thing rips, i am prolly getting one of those next week i "here" it is around 9000 hp and goes 80 in reverse, what has everyone paid for these?

[STEVENJANNA]

This thread is a little old but everyone seems to have forgotten the good old days when you could order a new power band from the local dealer.:eek2:

[Chicksdigme423]

i'm only replying to this olddddd thread because it's a sticky

... and my friend said that my quad should have a wheelie controller, where is this located and how do i adjust it??

he also said that my kanooter valve and newbie bearings were starting to go...

but thankfully the local dealer said they'd fix me right up with those 2 parts AND adjust my wheelie controller real cheap, they told me around $600 dollars

i'm glad they arent ripping me off, and i'm really glad my friend isnt blowing smoke up my ***

[Honda4lyphe]

Omg you guys shoulda asked me if you wanted hp gains, ok first of all put on LOTS of stickers each sticker is around 20hp gain each, then take off your full exaust, Who needs exaust? it will take off weight and add like 30hp, i also heard about the suger in the gas tank it owns!! i got around 50 hp from that son of a.. oh dude i got that honda/gasgas/yamaha yfz trx wild 1000 then bored it to a 2000!! i get like 20,000hp from it!!!@!@ it goes like 186 mph in reverse! i raced a xy10 falcon jet in a drag i smoked that looser :devil:

[2Fast4u_300ex]

ok, although this thread is old and at one time very funny:D

it is a suggestion thread, so...

here is a suggestion...either update the forums or put in some kind of pop-up pm system. So when you get a pm, it pops up in a window. I always forget to read my pm's cuz there at the bottom and never alert you:(

Thanks

[07250ex]

i took my gas tank off and i have whole there and i pee into it so it runs very good fuel economy the octanes better then jet fuel also i hacked of my left front tire and right rear for weight savings also i cut my shaft in half and welded a chain in there so now with 6 links of a chain welded to my gear cases i move very fast

[250exkid]

sound clip of the coffe can exhuast??

[sk8ter0712]

just take you top end off and you gain like 50 hp I did this the other day and I jump 3 houses,4 cars, 2 trucks and my dad. But the bad news is my mom was standing right behind my dad and I landed on her. I said sorry mom I know I should've had it in 2nd but dad said I could make it passed him in 1st its his fault not mine.

[250exkid]

lmao :blah:

Great thread... LMAO This is hilarious!!

P.S. How do i check the oil in my seat to be sure there's enough?? Also i think my blinker fluid is low, Will it effect my HP? :D

[atv_man2007]

stop by your local hardware store and purchase some toluene 3ozs per gallon of 93 octane and your 400ex will smoke a 450r all day long if the motor holds lol Toluene can be used as an octane booster in gasoline fuels used in internal combustion engines. Toluene at 86% by volume fueled all the turbo Formula 1 teams in the 1980s

[atv_man2007]

how do i adjust my conutter valve and no one can tell me where i can buy a new muffler bearing its very frustrating .

[yfzrider310]

I just took the bearing out but you can only do this if you sand you exhaust system down. I like to sand all the metal down especially the frame since it ways so dam much. But you cant forget to dip it all in saltwater so you get that nice pc brown all the racers are looking for. Also another weight saving tip is just premix the gas so you dont need that radiator or external tank I swear all these factory jew you out of all your horsepower!

[wildcatkit52]

Uh...

Have to ask but it may sound like I am stupid and don't know anything about 4weelars.


When do I know it is time to replace the power band in my 250R?

I heard that if you hit the power band too much it wears out.

Oh, and another thing...

Where IS the power band at?

I would guess in the clutch area maybe?

Someone said I could use parts from a Polaris on my250R too. They said I could make a "jug" work and that would give me more power.

Does this have something to do with Polaris 4weelers not having all those geers?

Thanks for all the help!!!!!

[Castor-426ex]

you actually have to buy the powerband from your local dealer, once you get it home stretch it out real good and pop your wife or gf on the rear end with it, not too hard tho....
Then you need to lubricate the powerband with a solution called "astroglide", not too much tho...youll get slippage and slippage leads to the exact reason you needed a powerband in the first place....
Contrary to popular belief the powerband must be kept in its original packaging until installed. Its a powerband and it will try to attack other powerbands if they get to close to each other. You dont want the Powerband Welfare services coming to your house and taking your powerband away.......

[cyakka]

Wouldn't it keep the neighbors awake?

[sportbikeridr]

stickers make mine go faster, but i think the flux capaster might be your best bet !

[sportbikeridr]

oh ya .... can't forget the left handed screwdriver, and the bucket of steam !

[finsteratv]

i found out that pink plastics and barbie stickers give these things ALOT more power. i can smoke those gasgas/yamaha whatever they ares all day!

[wildcatkit52]

Wow... Digging up a 20 month old thread... Now I gotta go back and read it all again!

Wish I could change my name to match my other forum name on the 450r org. People probably don't take me seriously all the time with a name like mine, lol. I think we should be able to once we hit 1k post.

Used to be able to PM Pappy or Harlen and they would change it for you. Other moderators may be able to do it as well, but I'm not sure.

[cheater13]

Thanks man, I'll see what I can do.
