I just picked this up for $2000 what do u think????
this is a 2004 honda 400 ex. its acually a 440 with the new bigbore kit i just had installed with a new rev box, and a larger cam.( stage 3) this thing runs great. it has low hours on the new performance mods, and has a new pro air filter, i have a k&n one as well. it has white brothers exhaust and a jet kit too. after market plastics that are white give it a great look. , and also an extra set of tires and wheels.
I am getting back into riding and i think i got a good deal....

Our main riding spots are at coalmines.
Out by centrailia theres the frackville/ashland area. At that coalmine you can actually get to the underground coalmine fires from a side trail. Its an abandoned street great for dragging:devil:

We also go to freeland, home of the "Big Ben"

And sometimes we go to stroudsburg/marshalls creek. Theres a little spot behind the mr. z's, and theres south mountain in stroudsburg.

Lastly we go to the Lackawanna cutoff. Its an abandoned railroad track that is a REALLY nice ride. It brings you into NJ

Werd, but is there anything around here like local to your/my area at all. I know lost of places forever from here. Looking for some local places too.

Well the south mountain and MC pit are only like 29mins from us.

Freeland is about 45mins from us

Ashland frackville is about 1hr 10mins away from us

Lackawanna starts about 25-30mins away from us

Those are the only places we know of. By the Ash/Frack area, it looks like theres even more than the one coalmine. We might explore this spring.
But the coalmine we ride at is huge! You can only cover about 1/2 of it in one day.
Hillclimbs, trails, fireroads, soot pits as far as the eye can see!

Werd, id love to ride with you guys sometime.

I was hoping you knew of somewhere close as well, sometimes it would be nice to only have to drive a few mins to ride. I cant seem to find anywhere to ride around here.

well, we have 3 places down out street. Nothing worth driving too.


We have a small sandpit, a couple of acres of trails, and powerlines.
We just drive the quads right down to em. Its nice not to have to load up, you know? They get boring quick though

Ill hit ya up when we go to any of those places above^ It wont be till this damn weather breaks though.
