    Been out of it a long time

    Well from the fall of 2007 untill the summer of 2010 my 400EX sat in the corner of my garage as a pile of parts. I went on a trail ride with a friend of mine that I race MX with and it made me want my 400EX back so after 8 months of building and a month of sitting around due to going back to college for my final semester, here is my new, and I mean pretty much everything is new, 2001 400EX:






    My nice spot for mounting my rear rezzy, might keep it cooler:


    I'd like to thank one of my very close friend, and the owner of Nac's Racing, Danny Lewis, and I'd like to thank Seth at SF Racing for working his tail off on my shocks which were pretty beat when he fot them. Thanks guys couldn't have done it without you!

    VERY NICE! I really like the powdercoating job you had done, nothing flashy just a few key parts are the right colors

    Only my 450 and my 400 are done. Right now my 250R is still in its "before" condition. I haven't started working on it yet reall, still getting parts together and getting ready. Tear down on that should happen early this summer. But here is a pic of my 450 and my 400. Not that great of a pic but they are there lol:

    very very sick man! great job on it for sure.

    as a bit of a side note: it looks like your spacer for your exhaust should probably go inbetween your frame and your slip on part not on the outside of your slip part. just noticed that after looking through the pics again.
