    Question more power/better trail bike--05 Z-400 or 04 400ex??

    which one is more powerful and a better trail bike caseu im goin out to buy/reason with the dealers on sunday and im getting the ------05 kodiak 450 or the 05 Vinson 500-still not sure bout those.
    and either the
    -----2004 400ex or the 2005 Z-400
    -----2005 Blaster or 300ex and the 2005 Ozark
    but i think the 400ex and the Z-400 would have more power/ be a better bike than the ozark right????????
    id be mostly trail riding 5in of mud at the MOST and than mostly regular trails-dirt/grass- and up and down the railroad tracks which is a big straight away and up and down the road.
    so which do you think i should get out of all of those options? lol

    05 z400. I am a honda at heart but i would take a 05 z400 over a 04 400ex anyday. It has fully adj. shocks, DOHC powerplant, and decently reliable.

    so the Z400 could handle all that better than the 400ex? what about the raptor 660r would that be better yet?

    the 400ex has slightly better handeling, but barely noticable..

    i would take 400ex over Z because i get so frusterated not being able to torque-bog my way out of something

    z400 by a long shot. More power alot more comfortable. REVERSE. And im not a fan of the handleing on the honda although alot of people are. Liquid cooled so itll stay good.
