Oh and for some cheap mods, I'd go with the HMF slipon and rejet your carb.
After that you have to wait and see, nerfs you really only need if your gonna be racing so spend that idea somewhere else but make sure you get the PRM swing arm skid plate,, provides a lot of protection when your trail riding.
Other than that it all depends on the kind of riding your gonna do and how much cash you have.

if u ride alot of trails, you deffinately want some nerf bars, and powermadd handguards

and of course a camelback if you ride hard

Nerfs, keep the stock wheels put itp Gncc's on it. Bars, skids and a kill switch.

Just the nessary stuff :p

yeah this quad is sick the only thing is that the starter has a bad connection so sometimes it wont start:( but we rolled it down a hill then pop started it and now it runs fine so im thinking it might just be the battery.

My 400 wouent start sometimes, and the lights would go dim and flicker on and off, it was the ground it was broke, cheak that out, and just make sure everything is tight around the battery, this happend right when i got mine, i was soo pissed, i thought i was going to get a relible quad, but once that was fixd i havent had a problem with it.

i am PSYCHED for you too, if you can afford it, get the gt thunder rear link and shock revalve...then save for some good front shocks. then a steering stabilizer...it will be a whole new faster bike to you.

suspension should always come before performance..if you can't use the extra power it is no good to you...
