1) When i'm near the top of 4th gear, my front end shakes like a mofo, it feels like the wheels are going to shake off. It's only at high speeds though. I have my suspension set at the hardest setting because when it was normal it felt Roll-y. It did fine at high speeds. It pretty much sat most of winter i rode it about 4-5 times between november and now, but this weekend i went riding and at high speeds (even on flat rode) the front end feel like it's gonna shake off. I flipped it up and turned the wheels, they turn ok but i heard and felt some sort of drag. I'm going to replace my wheel bearings with 251083B All Balls Front Wheel Bearing Kit, Honda TRX400EX 02-05 from rockymountainatv.com
Should this fix my problem? this is my main concern right now....
2) I have 2 oil changes worth of mobil redcap, i liked it because it was widley approved of and cheap, what my next choice, i'm hoping to sit it out a while and wait until eveyone approves of something else, I hope the new mobil proves to be ok. Maybe a sturdier clutch will be able to handle it better then stock..... any suggestions right now though??
3) I have an 04, i bouth it used after a guy had it for a couple of months and traded it in for an auto due to carple tunnel syndrome. Had maybe 10 hours on it they said (THEY SAID) but it looked good so...... I have religiously changed oil, cleaned/oiled air filter, claened/lubed chain, adjusted chain, washed it everytime i rode it. I think my valves are ready for adjustment and i'm ready for more power. All my friends ride Z400's or KFX400s, w/ pipes and other mods. What kinda price am i looking at for a 416 kit? where can i buy it at? all i see is 440 kits, I dont have to much money but my first mods are definetley going to be a UNI filter and HMF full pipe. But i figured when i adjust the valves i could put a hotcam stage 1 in also, and i'd llike to do a 416 at the same time? (I think with this set up i should be competitive with them if not a step above) Any advice?
4) When i set my suspension to the hardest setting i was trying to find my sweet spot, i never got around to it after i changed it. Any advice? I'm 6'1 weigh 160-165lbs and do mostly trail, jumping, etc... whats a good setting with stock shocks? i eventually want to get the Fox Shox but for now any help???
Thanks for the re-info
