my friend that I race with sold his 400ex and the guy he bought it from ended up doing the world record wheelie on it....

so i would say 400ex!

I think Z-400. I had a friend beside me and I was riding a wheelie 4mph on one. They are so so so easily balanced. I went for 1.2 miles on one on a single lane road (straight stretch with minor curves in it)

300ex or 400ex, both have good easy to find balance points, the 400ex is probally better then the two because it has more power

It seems that the 400EX feels the most natural on the rear tires then any other quad I've ridden.

I here a 400ex........Never tried on one, I have a raptor and can't imagin anything being easier to get up in the air and stay up than this thing........Little work involved.

The Raptor wheelies very easy, but the 400EX feels more balanced. You can get the front end to come up on the Raptor, but keeping it up is a little more tricky then it is on the 400EX. Also, the Raptor's throttle response is a lot more snappy compared to the 400EX.

I agree the 400ex is great but has anyone tried the 250ex, you can nearly drag the grab bar on the ground for ever, the balance point is so far back on it. To bad that gas pours out the overflow though when riding wheelies.

Without a doubt it's a Z400 (or KFX/DVX)

400EX or the KFX700.

The EX is no slouch, don't get me wrong....But between the two I would pick a Z400 any day of the week.

See, it wheelies all by itself.... http://www.cvboyz.com/videos/nohander05.wmv

thats good shiit josh :eek:

the 400ex is the best IMO, the Z has a smaller ballence point, where the EX has a very wide one.

But dont forget the Honda Recon. for a ute, it is easy to do wheelies on, and the electric shift gives you a vide variety of trick to do while in a wheelie.

I have ridden a 300 and 400EX and they both seemed like good wheelie machines but I dont have enough seat time on the 400EX to tell which one is better.

I'm actually not sure to be honest with you....it's right near land air. If I kept going straight after I set the wheelie down I would end up at the Red Bull warehouse....Comes in really handy....free Red Bull at the riding spot.

400ex for sure. The z400 isnt bad either. Basically all Honda's are decent. The 300ex, 250ex, and recon all are pretty good. My 250 will bring it up very easy, but its kinda trick sometimes. Like Josh said, you better be hanging on... Overall, the 400ex is best.

any of the 400's..... there all close on center of gravity blah blah blah...... i've found that i can walk my 300ex for miles in 5th pinned:devil: , so a 300ex isnt far behind the 400's

^^^^ lmfao!!! my uncle gave me one of those, it had no brakes, a broken tripometer, gas tank was under the seat and no shocks. the only suspension was lower the tire pressure

cool 300ex
02-10-2006, 01:55 PM
I think it's a mix up between the 400ex and z400! I have saw people ride them for miles on both. My old one was good at it and so was my old 300ex for alittle 300ex.

The Honda Recon is a good auto-clutch quad to ride a wheelie on, could ride one forever on my old Recon.

I can wheelie my 250 way farther than a 400, but its probably just because im used to it
