hey guys, im 6,3 tall and 180, and when i sit on my 400 it fells a tad small to me, just in a way that things could be placed a little differently, anyone know of someone who makes footpegs that are lower? and that fit with nerf bars?
how do aftermarket handlebars help for the fell ?

A friend of mine had the same feeling about his 400EX. He bought an aftermarket steering stem (+1) I think. It might be plus 2, but I don't think so. He is much happier with this setup and a much better rider now that he is comfortable. Good Luck! I hope this helps........

A set of High Bend Renthals, helped me out.

Thumper racing makes a handlebar riser out of billet aluminum that rises the bars an inch and forward an inch. they make em for the 400ex(Ihave not installed mine yet, but I had a set on a Yamaha WR400 bike...nice). also there is a set of nerfs called extreme pro-peg magnums i think that have built in pegs that are lower and further back. this should help. :devil

I think that is the bend I have, and it helped out a ton.

I put on a set of Renthal bars for the 300ex, they are taller and swept back more, on my 400ex and they feel alot better.
