    400ex, or 450r

    Well i think im gona buy a 450r but i dont know if i should keep my 426ex or not, i would hate to see it sit and collect dust

    If i would get a 450r with the big3 (pipe, air filter, and idk what the other is but ill say cam and jets) do u think my 400 would just sit or what?

    I just want some opinions from some of you that have both a 400 and a 450 or that went from a 400 to a 450, how much of a difference was it?

    Thanks for any of your opinions i just hate so see the old 400 sit

    I had both, a 400 and 450. After about a year of owning my 450 i could never ride the 400 and have as much fun. I sold my 400 for $2700 and i miss it but if i still had it i think it would sit in the garage all the time and never get ridden. I would rather take the money while you can...the longer you have it the older it gets and the lower the value gets. Just sayin
