DVX 400 = LTZ400 with different plastics?

[Punkmaster Flex]

I'm looking for a 400 and well 400EX are cool but if I want to go big bore and all the air cooled engine might not like it.

I'm thinking about getting a Z / KFX / DVX. I know they are in the same section but are they 100% identical apart from the body? The Z400 is pretty much bullet proof so if you tell me the DVX400 is a grand cheaper only because its an Artic Cat yet still has the same engine, I'll be quite happy lol. :D

Same besides the plastic and seat.

my kfx400 has a tag on it MADE BY SUZUKI MOTOR CO. i bet the dvx does too somewhere

Your kidding, right???

[twincat800]

i guess you are kinda right airmobile haha... cuz they have identical parts throughout the machine... y would they be built different or anything like that???

He is right, didnt you know that had different plants for the different colors also thats why the yellow is so much faster :rolleyes: If you honestly think that your a ****ing idiot!

It was my understanding they had different chokes on the dvx/ltz/kfx

And some brands came with electric and some had manual, and maybe some had electric+manual. Like the kfx only came in electric and the ltz had manuals start + electric.... or something like that

Well you are misunderstood. All of these quads are identical. And none of them have a manual start, they are all electric. I have a ltz400 and it is only electric, no kick starter.
