I have a 2005 400ex that I just had rebuilt:

440 cylinder
11:1 namura piston
stage 2 hotcam
hot rods crank
pro x cam chain
uni filter w lid drilled ( I ride a lot of dust)

everything else is stock

klotz mx4 oil


After the bike warms up it is VERY HOT . So hot the gas actuAlly boils and my oil bubbles. Anywho. It revvs high while idle so high I have to either shut it off or put it in 4th and play with clutch till it slows and goes right back after depressing clutch. Any help would be great!!!


Also for sale or trade!

Other extras:
pro taper bars
maier plastic
dg front bumper
lexx mid pipe/ slip on
needs tires

$2000 or trade for yfz 450 or Honda 450r or even clean 350 warrior

That's a nicely built motor, It's gonna need a lot of gas and air to run cool. Get the jet specs and let us know. Also, Where are you located ??? I may be interested in buying it off you. That's my kinda motor, I'll gladly take over those problems. PM me if you'd like. Thanks.

Did you use Klotz for your break in oil ????
Missouri is a little bit of a cruise, But I'm always up for a road trip.
