hello all. i am new to the honda forum but not at all to the offroad community. i have been rideing offraod since i was 6 years old dam that 20 years ago lol. i have driven almost anything that will go through mud or up a hill from dirtbikes atvs buggys or even a car with mudders. anyways i have just got a 01 400ex stock and has been beaten up. im slowly but surely going to put it back on the trail but anything bought will of course not be stock. the guys i ride with have the best of everything on there units and knowing that im not trying to beat my cousins 350 banshee that has around $10k in it but would like to at least like to hang around with them in the trails. as i said before i have rode alot but dont know to much on working on them so i will have many ??? to come. all opinions or facts will be greatly apprechiated and of course if there is anything i can help out a fellow rider with i will gladly help thats why we are all here for. so i hope everyone luck and i hope to make some friends on here so when im up and going i can go out and ride your trails as well as you can come to ky to hit the mountans with me. thanks again:funnykawie:
