Good Morning,
I recently bought an 04' 400ex.. I have had Suzuki all my life and I must say I love the Honda.. Not as torquey as the Suzuki my brother has now but i got the top end on him :p anyway, she is a cold cold girl to start.. it won't start on the battery alone the first time but once it does start and idles, then the battery has enough to start it everytime... i have to put the charger on it, turn it to 10 amps, and then the started turns way faster and it will fire right up.. i was going to change the spark plug but as some of you know it is a chore to get at and once i did get to it, i didnt have the wrench.. could be the coil too i suppose. also i found out that there is no brake light on this thing.. i have read that there are kits you can buy and install. i am electrically savy so installing it wont be hard but i havent been able to find where you can buy them. any ideas or input on either of these issues would be greatly appreciated!! thanks in advace y'all
