What you also need is a new powerband kit that goes for $49.99. Call Kevin at Lost Creek Cycles. He keeps them in stock. He might even have the reverse kit.

would that be 2-400cc or 2-200cc cylinders. an 800 sport quad would kick some major @ss. the only problem would be you would have to wrap your legs around the cottonpicken thing. can we say hot calves. :eek:

Well,they make a thing called the Rev-Loc,it converts your clutch atv to a clutch less (ie. shifting without clutch) like the utility quads are and all....I think I might get one,so I can drink and ride,lol:huh

back to the first question is there a reverse kit for the 400? or can any compaies do this mod? and how much does it run... obviously not $60 i'm assuming...

Pro400EXC
09-25-2002, 03:18 PM
Sry to say this,but man there are some not too bright people in this world......:huh

I mean,asking if there is a reverse kit for the 400ex,is liek asking if you can put a 250r cyl on it,or make it a 2stroke....:huh


Obviously if the factory didn't do,then why the heck would another company won't do it...

I mena the z400 yes did coem from the DR-Z witch didn't have reverse,but the FACTORY did it and has the R&D to give it reverse.

Anyways NOOOO there is no FREAKIN reverse kit for the 400ex.....


Give honda baout a grand ro soo,and maybe they will am,ke you reverse...........

Ok,please tell me yourt not asking about a Reverse conversion.......

Cause if you are WTF don't your People Understand,there is NONE,NADA,Zip,Zero,Ziltch,,you cannot I repeat "CANNOT" put reverse on a 400ex.....My advice is get your lazy self up,and run some laps,jog,jump,do something,so you don't complain about not having reverse...Also drop outta school,and like join Jr. College,or the forestry or soemthing,cause education doesn't seem to be your High Point"

Hold on, don't get too far ahead of yourself. There actually is a reverse mod for the 400EX, and I have one. All I did was race cut the front fenders, then use my feet to push the front wheels in a reverse direction while sitting on the EX. It works for most, but not all "stuck" situations. :D

09-26-2002, 05:09 AM
Im preety sure he saw the words rev kit and didt think it was a rev limiter he thought it was abreviated for reverse kit. LMAO

You need to chill Exspecially when anything is possible ,
A 400ex reverse system has been done but it takes Extensive modifications to do this , It was in one of the magazines awhile ago .
There is no need for the vulgar language .
Just chill.
