Well this only makes it better for honda to step it up, or they are going under on the quad department!

06-03-2003, 04:32 PM
anyone else thinks that frame looks underbuilt?








im kinda wantin one of these bad boys:confused2

06-03-2003, 04:46 PM

I dont think this thing is going to suck as bad as you say it will !! im sorry to say this but honda has been a let down for quite sometime !!(ok a really really long time) !! that frame is a complete new design and from the looks of it YAMAHA did thier homework this time ! this thing is going to SMOKE some arse !! i think some people are just too afraid to admit yamaha built something worth having !!

I think it looks pretty good. Honda has about 8 months(just my personal deadline), or I will have one of those Yamaha's in my garage. Barring any major problems.

Say what you want, but the 400ex is STILL at the bottom of the ATV food chain! I was tired of waiting for HONDA to catch up 2 years ago! I love Honda machines, but they are getting their butts kicked:eek2: and have been for awhile now!

Boy honda is facing stiff competition from that industry giant GasGas, and that smaller firm called Yamaha. Wonder whos going to beat them to the market next, probably Kasea or Bombader or maybe even LEM.

IMO honda is just sitting back watching what the compititon is doing and once there all done throwing out new pieces of junk honda is gonna release there quad and all you all gonna be changing your opinion.

06-04-2003, 03:50 PM
Honda is prolly trying to find a way to fit 2 more wheels on their new scooters . Sorry , but Honda has just been too slow at producing new models . They are going to lose a lot of customers because of this . But then again , this is just my $0.02

honda is just waiting so that they dont get ripped off anymore, everytime they come out with something another company makes something a little better, now its hondas turn and i bet it will be pretty awesome

I don't know were you get your info from but the 400 is still up in the food chain.I still see the 400 on the podium as a matter of fact had a race Sunday(XC) had a Suzuki,Banshee,V-twin,Raptor etc...The Banshee stayed with me for about the first mile or so after that I never heard from hin again.First in the woods first out.I still love my 400 and I know that I'm not riding it to it's full potentaul!!!All of you that turn from the red I'll wait for you at the finish line to see if you made it.(Just remember how the raptor was suposed to be the end of Honda,I still get a kick out of passing that thing.)I will wait my 400 hasn't let me down and I don't expect she will.

Exactly, if honda would of released a crf you know yamaha would of made theres better than honda and we would be stuck with the slower crf and they would have the faster yzf but since honda waited for all the competition to release their models now they can make the best and not have to worry about any competition from yamaha, suzuki and polaris.
