400ex doesnt have anything on a LT... keep your 250r ;)

the r is definitely a faster quad but the 400 is a 4 stroke meaning better reliability

I own a 86 LT-250r and 02 and 03 400ex. Stock wise the 250r is faster than 400ex. But my 400ex are more reliable plus parts are easier to find too. What year 250r do you have? I know on my 86 I put gusset plates on it . The frame now is more sturdier. So if you want to race go for the 400ex . But 250r's are getting scarce too.

just goin to put my 2 cents in. the 400ex is great i had one and it was great but the speed isnt great after a while. im 15 and im on a quadzilla 500 just because of the speed
