Anyone here ride sport quads? - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

Muttrk · 09-21-2004, 07:36 PM

Seems like everyone here rides utility quads. Does anyone ride Sport quads? I just bout an 04 Kawasaki KFX400. I was just looking for some more info on it. Does anyone else ride that or a Z400 Suzuki?

theozman82 · 09-21-2004, 07:39 PM

Hell yeah. I ride a 2004 400EX and the wife rides 2001 400Ex what do you ride

Muttrk · 09-21-2004, 08:12 PM

KFX400. used to ride a 300EX

theozman82 · 09-21-2004, 08:39 PM

how do you like it. Was going to get the KFX 700 but found i could buy a brand new 400ex and a used 400ex for the same price. Still shit is bad ass i also ride motocross my two loves

krawlinken · 09-21-2004, 11:42 PM

I ride an 02 400ex. if you want to surrond yourself with sport qauds go to some sand dunes. Pismo is always fun!

Muttrk · 09-22-2004, 06:07 PM

I love the thing. I got it for 5200, not to bad. Dealers around here suck. That thing get's it pretty good stock. Much better than my 300!

FordCarnage · 09-22-2004, 06:30 PM

The new KFX700 quads are automatics right? Is your 400 an auto and if it is how has it held up? The only other auto sport quads I have seen are Polaris Sports and Scramblers which I know have had problems. I still like to select my gears manualy.

Muttrk · 09-23-2004, 07:04 PM

Yeah, the 700s are auto's. Mine is full manual. Clutch and all. It's controls are just like a motorcycle. The only difference is the thumb throttle vs the twist on a bike. From what I have heard, the auto trans in the 700 is a great trannie!

02 Raptor 660 with some extras

mondtster · 09-24-2004, 06:21 AM

All I have right now is a Kawasaki Mojave. Used to have a YZ 125 and a YZ 250 too, but needed some cash and parted with them.

Crowdog · 09-24-2004, 07:35 AM

'04 Honda 450R - Me
'02 Honda 400ex - Wife

Mostly sand dunes. Sand Mountain, NV, Dumont, Glamis, etc.

beyer05 · 09-24-2004, 09:48 AM

I MX race a CRF450 motored custom quad and also have a 400EX for the wife.

mud390 · 09-24-2004, 03:01 PM

I've got a 2003 400ex and I love it! I grew up riding utility quads, and this thing is like night and day. I love riding it!

iscout62 · 09-24-2004, 11:25 PM

I have a 03/Z400 Suzuki. Love the hell out of riding it.
It kicks my ass.

GETTINTHERETOY · 09-25-2004, 10:19 AM

03 Z400 .......Pretty much stock but still a blast in the sand.

Mr. Bastard · 09-26-2004, 07:56 AM

01 Raptor 660R

webilt · 09-26-2004, 08:26 PM

I ride a 01' 400ex
wife, 02' 300ex
daughters, 01' 300ex, and 00' Polaris 325 trailboss

mhm2a · 09-27-2004, 01:51 PM

I have ridden Warriors, 300EX, and 400EX. But recently have digressed to a 1985 350X 3-wheeler that will hang with the 400EX's and is a fight to keep the front wheel grounded. It will not out handle them, but for $900 bucks who needs handling.

HeyBeerMan · 09-27-2004, 02:42 PM

Hell yeah,

I got a Raptor full suspention mods and a cam/pipe

The wife rides a 400EX Full suspention mods and full engine mods.

Started building a track last weekend for the kids (I have been using it more)

Jeff Ammon · 09-27-2004, 04:15 PM

Currently a 02 400ex with $2500 in mods. Wife has a kawi 300 sport. Looking to sell those and get the new 450!

Tx Outlaw · 10-01-2004, 07:27 PM

I've got an '03 400EX and the wife has an '03 250EX (she can't get the throttle/clutch/gearshift down yet). The auto has given her no problems and she seems to like the reverse too! LOL!

Toy 4Runner Man · 10-01-2004, 09:31 PM

I have a TRX450R with cam, and LTE Racing exaust!

The wife has a TRX400EX with a LTE Racing exaust, and a 426cc/ 11.5:1 piston.

We both love to ride. Mainly hitting the dunes anymore, the wife is still recovering from a back injury. That didn't stop her from putting the 450R upside down on top of her!
