Just wondering how the quality of this quad is. It is a toss up for me between kfx and 400ex. I like the power of the new kfx and that it has radiator with fan, piggy backs,dohc. But I know that the quality of the honda is great ( assuming i take care of it, which i will). I own a 250ex and have a buddy with 01 400ex and they both have been riding very hard and still run great and haven't had to have any major parts. I also have another buddy who just picked up a new z400 and I like it alot, rides awsome. I am looking for a very good quality quad that will last me a good while, something that jumps good, and handles good. What do yall think?

I have an 03 and have ridden it harder than Tommy Lee on Pam on the yacht!! I am not the best on maintenance, and have wrecked, rolled, submerged, raced and done anything imaginable to it and it is still very reliable-motor has not been touched, valves are still adjusted perfectly and everything. GREAT machine, but the EX is great too, just doesnt have the goodies tha Z/KFX has.
