I am stumped, But I'm new to this 4-wheeler thing.
I just purchased a clean non abused ex400 (03).
Several factory parts were removed and discarded. In reading this forum, it appears that removal of parts seems to be the standard. I must be missing something, I don't understand why someone would remove tools/toolkit, the brakelight, heel guards, manual choke etc. Oh ya, did I mention this quad was not raced, just a fun toy to run around with on trails so I don't think that weight reduction was the issue.
When I asked the previous owner why he removed the parts, he smiled and said, "did'nt needum!"
I am looking forward to hearing your opinions on why these parts are not needed.
Thanks,
