keep them their the best built quad ever adn save your money for the 450rs. your making 400exs less valuable lilke me im guilty putting 6000 into mine and probably would have trade it for a old 450r or 4500 dollars but forget it i got one of the nicest ever bu=ilt and im keeping it for ever. long live the 400ex and screw the 450s no offence i love them but im not going to let them make me feel like mines a p.o.s. because if thje didnt exist mynquad would be the bomb . thats all thats on my mind holla.

strait up man - I've got 12000 in my 400ex and have been itchin to trade for a 450r - they're nice - and I've been blowin my mind on how to get ANY $$$ out of mine - but like ya' said -screw that yer' absolutely right - and I still smoke MOST 450's on the track - sure they'll spank me in a drag race - but draggin's not racin - I holeshotted 14 riders out of 18 at the WORCS series race last october- and stayed ahead of them - and I think I was the only one not on a 450 - and tell ya' what - I'm keepin my 400 and gonna do it again this year - it's like all these guys sellin off they're 250r's all decked to the hilt - and not gettin crap for them so they can get a 450 - then spend thousands again to get it all upgraded - screw that - - and by the way - SWEET BIKE MAN - BE PROUD OF IT!!!!

i mean look at the 250R, thier value went in the crapper when the 400 came out, then it went even farther in the hole when the 450s came out. its just the way it works

I say if it's payed off keep it. Take care of it a ride it forever. Remember there is no big money to win in racing, just a good time. :)

racing is all about suspension..ik myself i was having problems last year because of suspension, all those 450's with long travel it really does make a difference...the long travel and NOT the 450, which is why i decided to keep my 400, do a nice motor setup and some good long travel....for racing works can go in the trash.

Lol, personally I'm going to keep my 400 until I'm rich. But for now I don't mind seeing people upgrade to the 450s, it just means tons of 400s parted, and cheap aftermarket parts for me:devil:

hey i agree with all you 400ex fans it is all in the rider for the most part for one and two you make the 400ex just as nice if not better looking than the 450s and 3 they are still a honda and all hondas are bullet proof and 4 you can do more things with a 400ex and still have a great time. i didn't buy mine to put money in it to sell it for a lot more but instead to get a faster better bikeand trick it out to what i like and be able to keep up with everyone.
