i have a 400ex, with quite a few mods:devil: , but id go witha good 250r, think about it, it was winning races 20 years ago and it still is, so i say go with the king, the 250r

if you plan on being competitive in mx get a 450. You will be able to find yfz450s for 3800 by next summer. If you are going to be stubborn about not getting a 450 get a z400.

the 450s are the way to go man, the 400s are very outdated now. the 250r is the best way to go in ur situation. it was previously stated that its still winning races, and its 20 yrs old.

well you probably havent riden the z because i own a 400ex and i love it but i still think the z is a better quad (thats my opinion). If you are going to make the 400ex your "winter project" you are going to dump around what you could be saving for a 450, which you wouldnt have to mod at all to compete on the mx track. I honestly think you will be making a big mistake if get a 400ex, but it's your money to waste

yes because when you spend that money it will be what you could have spent on the 450. are you not understanding that? You can put $4000 into a 400ex to make make it be able to possibly keep up with 450s. You can buy a 450 for $4000 and you wont have to worry about your bored out motor to blow up

get either the 450r or the yfz just because the earlier models will be going for pretty cheap now, around 3500-4500 which is good for a 450.
