hey guys im thinkin bout tryin my hand at a harescramble after i fix my clutch
do u thin 46inchs wide in front is to much

[beastlywarrior]

sounds perfect, theres the awrcs coming to southington in july;)

[russellsroost31]

i gotta figure out whats wrong with my 400ex first

[quadracer556]

46 you will be way fine.i run 48 on the ltr and the 400ex with no problems.

[dxcody]

46 is dang near perfect.

You see alot of guys running stock ltr's that are 48-48.5

and most of the Pro's run right around 48.

[quadmanw]

46 should be awesome! I run somewhere around 46-47 front and around 48 rear. I don't really have any trouble

[russellsroost31]

You may want to consider running 46 on the rear full time too.. having a wider rear end will cause the front end to push.

Ideally you want a tad wider in the front..

ok sounds good
i got one more question shld i run my moddified airbox lid
it has 4 one inch holes in it or should i run open air box like i normally do

[quadmanw]

Run it open lol. If you have a good, clean filter it wont hurt it. And Personally I am running wider in the front right now.. but I like the rear wider. I feel more stable and a more comfortable ride.. I may have to switch back soon lol. Even tho it isnt ideal for racing

[HondaRacing83]

how are you 46inch in the front with stock wheels and +2 you should be at like 48

[quadmanw]

I'm right over 46. I know its wierd. I also have some wierd offset rims. When I was younger the guy who sold me them at the shop didn't know what he was talking about.. niether did I.. lol

[russellsroost31]

im not to sure
ive read from 47 to 46 is normal with +2 arms on a 400ex

I put + 2's on mine hoping to make it a better MX'er but its still more narrow than i'd like. Maybe ill add +3's somewhere down the road.

[russellsroost31]

yea thats what i should of bought

[CJM]

It depends on the way the shocks are setup (obviously more preload lifts everything slightly), wheels and tires.

Generally an EX is 43.5-44" wide stock. So +2 is right about 46-47s.

For me I find the ideal width about 45.5 inches (+1 arms) so you can fit in tight spots.

i got my bike sittin as low as i can right now i thin 7.25 in front and 7 in rear
