First off, Welcome to the sport of atving!:)

I hear the trails down in Georgia get pretty technical... Are you sure that you want more punch from your new 400ex? :rolleyes:

Quick answers are cam, higher compression piston, pipe, and carburetor.

What are your plans with your new atv? Are you going to race it? If so, what kind of racing, XC, MC, TT, Hill climbs, etc.?

Let us know, and we will try our best to inform you!

By the way, welcome to this site (forum)!!:)

I have to agree with OuwlawEX, go with a pipe, filter, rev limiter, and pull the lid off.

Hey Outlaw EX, NICE BIKE MAN! That thing is sweet looking. Did you have to cut the center out of your front fenders for the nosepeice or does it bolt on top?

get a wb pipe [or any other]then put in bigger jets and
play around with air screw to get throttle timing perfect.
then you should feel the power in the handlebar.
