Just read the press release for the 06 400EX and there are no new features...unless you count what they call "New Black color joins Red" as a "new" feature.

Engine and chassis remain the same.

Save some $$$ and get a yellow 05 :devil:

honda has a bunch of retards designing the plastics on their new bikes..

the old 400ex plastic looks Waay better then the new..

they should just make the older fronts a little more sporty and make them black.

that would look 100 times better

IMO

I agree

Honda will not update theirs bike if the competition don't have somethings

they never take the lead,the last time they did is when the 400ex come out in 1999

i wish honda would read this site and realize they should still do some of the 400's with the old style plastics and some with 05 plastics.

they might as well do away wit the shocks and put the R shocks on there since the 400 and R look identical.:macho

well the 400 really deserves better front shocks, i suggest they throw some fronts on like that 450r..like DH400 said..

well i could say 50 % what u said is correct and the other is wrong because the new trx 450 look fits its self but those darn honda designers shouldnt of made them look exactly the same it makes u feel like the 450 is a v8 stang and the 400 is a v6

so they need to change shapes at least alittle bit like the yamaha does i mean look at all the raptors

Your retarded, 99-04 ex's have an old skool 250r look, which imo looks crappy.

THe 05's have a new much better look.

I like the R look but when you will see a black honda bike you will say : it is a 400ex or a R ??

The 250R look great

My thought

I hate the new plastic.. One time I was sitting in the front yard ready to go riding and I saw a 450R coming down the road, I flagged him down and he stopped. I was like Yeah, I'm gonna get to ride a 450R again! Then I looked at the motor, I thought the retard had swapped... But nooo.. 400EX motor. True story! It turned out my good friend Dave had went out and gotten a new one. :p
