Like it says, what do I do? Me and the 400 have had some good times and Im not sure if I should give it up yet... Its mostly stock and to get to the level the new 450's are on I think is too costly, and would probly be better off getting a 450...

get the 450 u will put more money into the 400 trying to make it as good as the 450 so why not just start with a 450.

btw i would look into a 450r instead of the yfz JMO.

I had this debate earlier this spring. I kept the EX, I don't race, only recreational riding. I've ridden R's and don't like how they feel, the power is nice, but the 400ex felt better to me.

Not to mention, the look on a 450 owners face when a EX passes em' is priceless.

I was in the exact same situation as you. I loved my 400ex. I decided to get something newer and went with the yfz. You wont have any regrets at all. Get the yfz.;)

can you ride the 400 to its limits? if so then get a 450, if not, then no need to go any bigger yet

just cuz you want a 450, do ya really really need it

Well I did it, pulled the trigger on the YFZ! I should have it by Wed, it was still in the crate and needs to get assembled/checked over. I cant wait!
