what do you guys think?

[400racer1412]

just got the plastics yester day put em on today, i am going to get the a-arms and frame powder coated blue (if any photo shopers are out there lookin at this if you could do that for me that would be great.

[Bill Fuller]

Looks good but needs a new seat cover.

[400racer1412]

ya i no i am getting a black one

[BLAZE1]

I think it looks good!
The Duncan Graphics are always a good choice!
Looks like a suzuki at first glance, but I think that is just because of the colors. If I were you I would get a black seat cover w/ white letters(HONDA) or graphics on it.

[TCracin440ex]

judging from the supension on your bike, i think i can say you have stock a-arms...and you cant powdercoat stock a-arms the ball joints aint removable


EDIT: btw nice bike, like the colors

[stonerider250x]

man that looks nice now u need to upgrade suspension and power and ull have an awesome bike:cool:

[400racer1412]

hey guys thanks alot for the input and ya the a-arms are powder coated i hate it cause it dosent match, the guy who had it before me did that cuase i bought it used and all craped out so it well give me somthing to do like a project

[TCracin440ex]

doubt their powdercoated cant powdercoat stock a-arms....they are proally spray painted unless somebody didnt kno what they were doing cuz the heat needed to cure the powdercoat will melt the rubber ball joint

[toyota200x]

That is a really good looking 400ex. I would get some new exhaust headers, or shine those up. I would also go with a white frame. Are those 250r grafixs?

[TCracin440ex]

yea they are 250r graphics....you can see the slits in the graphics for the 250r side plastics

[400racer1412]

ya i got the graphics cuase my freind hase a 250r and got those graphics and then didnt like them so he gave them to me for like 30.00 so was ganna see if i could do somthing wiht em.

[drifterx]

Lookin Good! Need a new seat cover though... You should paint or PC your hubs blue, to match the graphics, and get some blue shock covers... That would look awesome!!! But, already looks awesome so far! I'm still looking over color combos for my up and coming project 440ex, and i'm really liking the trans blue frame, w/ white plastics. Again, looks great!

Liar my a arms are Pc'd u donthave to remove the ball joints

har har har i wish i had a pic.

[TCracin440ex]

ok...believe what you want to believe dicknose...you do need to remove the ball joints or if not the heat needed to cure the powder will melt the rubber ball joints so stfu

[Plante400]

also. the rubber wont melt. all the rubber gromits on mine withstood the heat and only 1 has a smal crinkle in it.. everythign turned out sweet and everything is working in perfect mechanical order..

powdercoating stock a-arms---- a can-do

[TCracin440ex]

ok i know what pappy told me when i asked about powdercoating my stock a-arms...what dont believe me...shoot him a PM and ask him and see what you get

[Plante400]

i dont know man but my a arms are pced and are on my bike right now haha

i have no idea what the problem is. but the only rubbr u are talkgn about is the little gromets that cover the ball joint right>

[TCracin440ex]

no...the rubber im talking about...is the rubber BALL joint...underneath that rubber grommet there is a rubber ball joint...that grommet is only to keep water and debris outta the balljoint...

the ball joints on stock honda a-arms are rubber...and they are non removable...so thats why you cant powdercoat stock a-arms

but im not gonna argue cuz arguing over the internet is like running the special olympics, no matter who wins your still retarded

[Plante400]

haha im not arguing.. all im saying is.. i did it.. and dont have any problems. so i guess it whent well.. anyway sorry if i pissed u off...

[TCracin440ex]

not pissed off...if i was pissed youd kno it...just tryin to state what pappy told me when i asked about p/c my stock a-arms

It is indeed
I did it to mine, they removed that rubber boot and did them and then repacked it and replaced the rubber boot
