It's the TRX400EXU Sport/Utilitrax! Still don't have a couple brackets on the rack for the water tanks, but you get the idea. Camping is going to be fun this year.

And one without the gear bag. I retained the 'out and back' rack, so I can carry the gas can and cooler still. The front compartments on the big rack bag are coolers or you can use them for more storage.

it's an aquired taste i guess. good for putting around and camping and stuff, but a 4X4 would serve that purpose better. cool to see something different though.

Yea but its just the point of wtf he did to that thing. You really need a utility. I don't even think that would be fun riding like that.

bearair,
LOOKS GREAT !
I'm still deciding on which bag to get for mine, but that Ogio is one of the top choices. (Which model/size is it? and where/how much did you get it?)

BTW- Harbor Freight Tools sells a 11" zippered canvas tool bag($6.) that fits perfectly under the rack, inside the rack mount.
Great for tow rope, flashlight, first-aid kit, etc.

Now all we need to do is get replacement tank stickers that say
"TRX400EXU SPORT/UTILITRAX" LOL!!
I love the moniker.

Dont listen to the "Sport Puritans", they just cant seem to understand why we want a dual purpose, higher performance quad that can do both types of riding, fairly well.
I took all kinds of heat, (but with a few supporters), when I first posted pics of mine with rear rack and tank bag.

Just wait for when your out on a trail, and you come up on a broken down racer type, and he starts asking...

"Hey Pal, Buddy, Friend,... do you happen to have a this, or that, with you???"

(you dont think he'll be bagging on you then, because yours isnt a 4x4, do you???)

05-11-2008, 01:10 PM
dood, thats a nice looking bike without the carriers but you have made it far more versitile with the carriers. I think its looks awsome and serves a perpose....or two!!

Go camping near a track...whip the bags off and go racing...job well done buddy.

05-11-2008, 01:35 PM
right on, nothing wrong with using a quad for many purposes. doesnt look like piss to me at all. you dont need a 4*4x4 just to haul some stuff around. its what kinda riding you want to do not what kinda accessories you want to have

05-11-2008, 02:29 PM
Haha OK you guys are funny. I could see a 6 pack rack for like a gas tank and a small tool carrier for lets say a all day ride but not a suitcase on the back of your quad.

Yea only problem here is its gonna be hard racing on a quad like that and it would be embarrassing if someone did this to a 450r. About the whole whip it off and ride on a track thats why I have 2 quads. Utility for big wood rides and mountain trails for camping and the 450r for the track. Makes sense to have 2 quads and each one has one purpose instead of trying to race with a set of racks on my quad haha.

I think it looks great and would come in handy most of the time. I would love that for a day of trail ridding with the buddies.

05-11-2008, 05:10 PM
all i have to say is that's different. I can understand if you rode more like the 4x4 style but a 4x4 didnt give you the edge you wanted so you buy a sport quad and do that. Its impractical but its also interesting.

It's not impractical at all!!! If he uses it to haul stuff like camping gear, or even to haul ANYTHING for that matter, it's quite the opposite of "impractical."

It would be impractical if it cost thousands of dollars, required major frame modifications, and could only haul 25lbs. THAT'S impractical. Obviously, it's easy to do and extremely useful for what he wants to do with his ATV.

It could be impractical for you if you don't use your quad for the same purpose as him. For him (and me, for that matter) it would prove very practical.

I wouldn't bash him and his ideas based on the fact that you and him don't share riding styles or preferences. ALL TERRAIN VEHICLE. Not "Just Track and / or Racing Type Vehicle That Should Be Used For Nothing Else" :rolleyes:


I still think it's very innovative, and only makes a great ATV better.

What sense does it make to have two quads when you have one that fits the bill perfectly? It's a couple hundred dollar solution to a couple thousand dollar problem. I'll take that any day.

"Man, I really wish I had a utility ATV to haul all my gear around, but I don't have $5,000 to spend. Hey, look at this! I can spend $200 to mount racks and bags on my EX! Money saved, and I still get everything I wanted in the first place! I win!"

That makes sense to me.

Yea it actually makes a lot of sense. So you are telling me I should sell my fully mx set up 450r and utility to buy a 400ex and put a rack on the back? Yea that will be a lot of fun to race against other 450s on and then I will have alot of fun in the winter whenever I am riding on trails doing donuts everywhere because sport quads suck for winter riding. Yep you my friend are a real smart one for questioning why I need two quads.

05-11-2008, 07:06 PM
Oh and I forgot to say that first 400ex looks brand new. Just looks extremely clean to me like even the motor.

05-11-2008, 07:09 PM
That is so impractical!!!





















Just kidding, I've done goofier stuff. To each their own. I could never run something like that just because if and when I rolled it the subframe would be toast but we all ride our machines different ways. Looks like the right setup for what you do.

I agree it does add functionality to the quad. "Practicality" depends on the intended use. I remember years ago when the 400EX first came out, my friend's cousin got a 400 and put a rear rack on it. I thought it was a little different to have on a sport quad, but I never ragged on him about it either. He did a lot of backwoods/trail riding and camping so the rack worked out well for him.

A quad is as functional for an intended use as you make it to be. Sport quads can be left relatively stock and stunted with, they can be modified for XC use, and they can be modified for MX use to name a few. Just because it's a "sport" quad, doesn't mean you HAVE to ride tracks or partake in a certain type of riding. Riders come in all sorts of flavors and their requirements of their quads are no different.

Here's a pic of my friend and his cousin riding at Byron MX back in 2000....man how the years fly by.. :p

it makes a lot of sense to someone like u..however not everyone is like you nor do they have the money to be like you if they wanted to be..

some people like to trail ride around and maybe hit up a track here n there but dont want to spend 10000 into there bike makin it mx only then buy another 5k bike to play in the woods..

so someone as serious as u SEEM would think 2 bikes is perfect..and hey im sure if u could give me a fully modded 450r and a nice 4x4 ill take it..but..i wont go out n buy it..ill use my 400ex for both if thats what i want to do..it wont be better but itll work and for the money spent..ill be happy with it :D

The 400ex was built to be a very sporty / race quad. Thats what it was intended to be and thats what it was until the 450's came out and now its not so much of that race quad it used to seem to be but its still meant for that. Thats why I called it impractical but very different. I wanst saying it was stupid I just said it was different

Id say a 400ex is still pretty far from a "race" quad though...

Whoa, leave for a day to go riding and come back to three pages of posts. Glad you guys had so much fun discussing this! I think what some people fail to realize, is that the racks unbolt! I don't have to leave them on there, and probably won't most of the time. BUT, we were literally 15-20 miles from nowhere today in old mining country. We take a lot of preparedness stuff since there was no on else where we were at and it gets cold at night. When we go on local trail rides or hit the MX stuff, the rack comes off.

One more thing. Ever ridden a XC suspended quad with gear? It handles fine and you'll get there before ANY of the 4 X 4 guys. It's like driving a racing buggy where people run old pick up trucks.

What's impractical about making his bike more versatile? It used to be just sporty. Now it's sporty AND can haul camping gear!

Different, yes. Impractical, maybe for you, but not for him. It serves it's purpose very well, therefore it is VERY practical for him.

The same would apply if you had a drag bike, and added godly amounts of nitrous and crazy engine mods. It would be practical for your application, since it would perform exactly as you wanted it to.

General statement not directed at Fox:
I wouldn't bash you or your ideas if you built up your bike to perform the way you want it to. If you need to haul things like camping gear, or spare parts if you're miles and miles from civilization, then add racks. If you don't need them, don't install them.

It doesn't make the bike any LESS sporty, it only makes it MORE versatile. I can appreciate that, and that goes for any mod, whether it's practical for my applications or not.

Maybe it makes sense for a person who is as loaded as yourself, but you're obviously unable to think "outside the box" and take into consideration the needs of others.

I'm not telling you to sell anything. If you have a ute and a sport quad, good for you. But, for someone who doesn't, it doesn't make sense to go out and spend thousands and thousands of dollars on an ATV when you can buy racks for your current ride for a few hundred dollars.

I never questioned why you need two quads, and I definitely never told you to sell one :rolleyes:

Hey, you got me looking where did you get that at? I have multiple 400ex's at my house and am currently building one just to go cut wood with. Has a hitch on it already... I nice rack to strap the saw (my overly expensive stihl) too and carry a cooler would be nice.

Nah actually it doesn't cost all that much for my set up. I got my 450r used and put about 3500 into it and paid 3500 for it so thats 7 grand there and the utility isn't exactly mine it is my dads but he paid like 3000 for it back when it was almost new and my brother rode it for 7 years and then he got a rubicon and we wouldnt get half of what we paid for the 300 utility so he just pretty much gave it to me. Oh and no don't take this the wrong way my parents don't pay for anything that I have really.

The out and back rack is made my Armadillo. Got mine from an ebay store. The black utility rack is made by Quadboss (labels say Quadrax) and is a universal rack. You have to order the mounting bracket specific to your machine. They only list 99-04 for the 400ex, but I'm sure it would fit a newer model by narrowing the flag bracket slightly, or modifying the R/H side clamp for the rack. I mocked it up on the grab bar with the out and back rack out of the way and I'm sure I could have made it work. Any of the rack accessories that bolt on an ATV rack will bolt onto the Quadboss rack. I've seen a Quadboss chain saw holder somewhere. There are universal gun mounts and several other things as well.

I ended up making some custom brackets to attach the whole thing as a unit to the rear of the quad. The out and back rack is very light (be surprised if it weighed much over a pound) and the Quadboss rack is also very light with the mount (4-5 pounds at a guess).

My wife and I ride by ourselves so one of us needs to haul some stuff. We take a snake bite kit (have had close encounters with 2 rattlesnakes in the last month), butane stove, light weight sleeping bags, some clothing, camping gear, tent and a bunch of other items. The total weight of all the gear is less than 30 lbs. so it's not like I'm hauling the kitchen sink here. Add 15-20 lbs. for ice packs, gas and all the drinks. I'm having the rear set up for a 250 lb rider (I'm about 240 with gear) so it shouldn't be a problem at all. I can always bump the preload setting up a couple turns when we go camping and back it down afterwards. Most of the time We just run around with the little out and back rack so we have drinks. We don't haul the gas can unless we're going several miles away from the truck.

I figured since the 400 is basically a play quad, then I'm going to use it for playing as well as exploring. The XR400 motor was known for it's reliability, so I figure it will make a good base for exploring as well as hauling a** on the big trails. It's not hard to get to the top of 5th on some of the desert roads. One of my co-workers has a 400 4X4 Rancher and I just walk off and leave him behind on the rough stuff. Figure XC sport quad that can haul a few things and you get where I'm going with this. The cargo bag stays home except for the deep into the mountain rides. I just put it on there after we bought it to check for fit. Couldn't resist taking a picture!

Ever ride a Sport/Touring street bike? Basically the same idea for a quad.

and they can sleep on the ground in their ride gear
(hope it dont rain)........... while you are in your tent sleeping in a warm sleeping bag

and they can drink puddle water .......... while your toasting cool beverages

if I did that type riding I wouldnt think twice about doing it

Had a couple co-workers that wondered why I didn't get a 450R. Doesn't have a reverse, doesn't crawl around in 1st gear in the really technical stuff, burns more gas, needs more work, the list goes on. Basically, you're riding an MX machine.

Do you take it on trails? Why? Some people might think that was pretty stupid (being sarcastic here). Just thought some people would get a kick out of seeing a rack bag on an EX. I really don't understand people that feel it's necessary to post "hate" posts. Per your sig you don't even own a 400ex so why come over here just to stir things up? I wouldn't go over to the 450 forum and do that. Just curious, not mad or anything. Thanks for the input. Duly noted that you disapprove. Have a nice time riding your "race" quad. Should I kneel?

I will be the first one to help a guy out but mooches dont make it very long

im not trying to change your mind im just stating my opinion

the guy took something and made it more usefull to him

he may look at your quad and not agree with some of the upgrades you have done..............

but ill go out on a limb and say he wouldnt call it "piss"

trolls are little troublemakers that live under the shelter that someone else has built and must maintain. They steal your food, and bite at your ankles, generally making a pest of themselfs.

They make nasty gestures, and smart@$$ little remarks. They like to snarl, show their teeth, and make alot noise. they often make no sense at all, and when challenged, they go running back to their hole, where they are living off the graces of someone else's labor and tolerence.

The best way to make them go away, is to simply ignore them, so that they can no longer entertain their own petty lives.

Do you take it on trails? Why? Some people might think that was pretty stupid (being sarcastic here). Just thought some people would get a kick out of seeing a rack bag on an EX. I really don't understand people that feel it's necessary to post "hate" posts. Per your sig you don't even own a 400ex so why come over here just to stir things up? I wouldn't go over to the 450 forum and do that. Just curious, not mad or anything. Thanks for the input. Duly noted that you disapprove. Have a nice time riding your "race" quad. Should I kneel?

Yea I am basically riding a mx machine thats what my signature is saying and yea I take it on some trails but not a lot because its pointless to go out on trails and break a mx quad doing something stupid and then not having anything to race on. No the 450r doesn't need more work you are obviously pulling that out of your *** and if you can ride then you don't really need reverse. Oh and yea you can buy a new front sprocket and get a different cam if you want to crawl around in the trails as you like to say because your clueless on how to ride but its understandable. Yea you can kneel if you want to I don't mind.

I will be the first one to help a guy out but mooches dont make it very long

im not trying to change your mind im just stating my opinion

the guy took something and made it more usefull to him

he may look at your quad and not agree with some of the upgrades you have done..............

but ill go out on a limb and say he wouldnt call it "piss"

No I don't have anyone hauling around my stuff because as mentioned before I have a utility quad and if they are decent people I don't see why they wouldn't store a few things for you unless everyone hates you.

Blastereaten250 no smartass I don't have any friends I ride alone on long trail rides on my cr80 and I lied about the whole thats what friends are for thing. Wow your dumb.

i think its a good idea... say your riding with your buddy's who all have sports, and you want to bring a case of beer. these racks do come in handy. a six pack is a good pain killer after a nasty roll lol
