Okay guys, im new to the site and i was wondering what alla yall think I should do next to my bike.

I have an '00 400EX with an e-series, filter, bars, tires, twist throttle, nerfs... it does okay. I usually race hare scrambles and grand prixs in the desert with lots of woops. I would say that I as a person can hold my own against most other people that I race with.

My question is what to do next to my bike. I should be coming into only about $300 of money that I can use for upgrades. I was thinking of getting a hotcam, and boreing it out to either a 416 or a 426 (Ive heard too many horror stories about 440s). on the other hand, I also thought about trying to find some 450R shocks and work more in the suspension/handling department. so let me know what you think will give me the most bang for my buck.

thanks

How about a slip on pipe and jet kit? That seemed to help me out quite a bit in the power department.

I HIGHLY suggest suspension next.

you can have all the power in the world, but if you cannot get it to the ground, it's useless.

I have the 450r fronts on my 400, and I love them. cannot wait to get them resprung.

the 450r shocks sound really good. If you hear a lot of stories that they work well than you should go for it. After that then maybe get some more motor mods. Like the White Borthers power up kit.
