i just put a new rebuild on my 400ex after i blew it up in glamis long story. i did a 426 and that thing flys i beat stock bikes up comp by 3 to 6 bikes and i have a highrise dome 12:1 compression. and i run trick 110 fuel i raced my buddys Duncan Racing 440 and it was neck and neck the whole time. so i am very happy with the 426vs the 440.

Aint it funny, I had a 425 with alot of mods, and a 416 blew my doors off. My sleeve turned into a tin can after a couple months though not sure why.

Hi I am sure my dads 440 will get everyones, it is a cannondale cannable. Man That sucker is fast, it go's around the rapptor , 400ex 440ex , and all my dad has besides the moter and fuel injection is a bigguns slip on and the mx fule maping.

well I do not mean to be an a** but why spend all that money on the 400 exc... and still not be the fastest.

Because 400Exs are Hondas and Ya can't beat that.

O yeah and there are about 3-4 Dales in District 3 that race every weekend and i race them every weekend. There is a Fx400, a Cannable and a Blaze.

Well every weekend they leave wishing they had bought a 400Ex cause everytime that I get out in front and I don't get to see them until the race is over. They can't bear the thought of how much more they spent on their quads than I did. And how i smoke them every single race. Not Flamming This is Fact.

And if you want just speed and power yeah Dales are cool. But for Mx my choice I a 400Ex.

But all in all it comes down to Rider vs Rider.

Huh, thats weird.....I passed a C-dale Blaze ( even faster than the cannibal) at my last HS race on my 400ex with just a pipe

because nothing handles like a 400ex and you just can't kill them :devil ...i also prefer not to stall in mid air :blah

haha, this is the funnyiest thing, u can bring your little dale around, brag about being the fastest, and someone is goin to get tired of hearing this, and bring a shee, and turn u into a dune, being fast dont mean *****, u can hav the fastest quad, but can be the suckyest rider, remember, money can buy a fast quad, but it cant buy a good rider

Becuase a cannable is the cheapest dale u can buy, and they dont handle and are proven as reilable as a EX. And how many bike shops can your dad go to and buy parts for is dale? i dont know one off-road shop that cant get parts for a EX. And for the 2k that i can save for buying a EX over a cannondale, i can have top of the line shocks, or one h#ll of an engine kit, that would put it to the dale.

yes I agree with you all, but the thing is I can ride the dale but it toke a long time to get the hang of it, And before I got the Big gun it was always choked up , like it would cut off in mid air, and take forever for it to strat. But I have a bad *** 300ex (330 kit).
and rather stay with it because it mine and I dont have to lisen to my dad telling me "I brake it I Buy it"

And to tell you the turth my dad can't ride at all, he makes the dale look like a golf cart.

I know you guys have heard it before but here it is again!
Its 95% Rider and 5% Bike, and that goes for most and kind of quad racing (except Drag maybe:) ).

I've seen Mark Burns on stock 400ex's and Canadale's go up some very fast machines and come out on top...
