Well crap. I bought another 400ex. 1999. It runs good but it needs a little work. Valves adjusted. Tune up etc

Ok stick with me here. One of my buddies offered me it for $500 and he gets my other 400ex that I was going to do a complete rebuild on. This one is literally identical. I told him that I get to take my new handle bars off, the nerf bars, and the skid plates. He said fine. He was looking for a whole new wiring harness and the frame, I guess his is rusted out or broken I didn't ask. Also I got to keep both sets of plastics. He didn't need them. He also offered me a used 300ex starter and a can of 110 VP Racing fuel if I go deliver the Quad to him next week.

All in all I'm glad we could help each other out. I knew my 400ex rebuild was going to take way too long. Once I get out of college I will be able to dedicate more of my time to a project that big.

So now I am considering getting this one running good and selling it to buy the Foreman or a Rancher that I am searching for. I am also selling my 2006 300ex to one of my brothers.

My fleet is disappearing. I eventually want to only have my Gray 416cc and Hopefully a Foreman. I like having alot of bikes but its too much work for me to keep up with. I would rather have my family and friends having fun with them. Rather than have them sit in a carport doing nothing. Sorry to ramble on lol

Nothing wrong with a fleet of Honda's......Trust me it could be a heck of a lot worst, LOL

Haha I guess. When I get older I'll get another fleet going. I just can't keep up with them right now. Its sad to see them go. I am going to try and sell them to people I know that I can see them again lmao

So the one you're buying off your buddy has a busted frame??

No sorry I see that is confusing. He has another 400ex that has a broken frame. Instead of fixing it he is going to scrap the frame and use mine.

The 400ex he is selling me is bone stock and the only thing it needs is some minor work

 

[UnkleRaRa]

Gotcha!

Sounds like a good deal for both of you

 

[XplicitRacing6]

Yep always willing to help a friend out

Feel free to ship your Moto4 over to me! Haha My first ATV was a 225 Moto4, I’d love another but haven’t found one in good shape yet.

Sounds like you got a better deal over all, like you say it saves you the time of a full rebuild.

Just out of curiosity... Why did your buddy want your bike for the frame and wiring harness when he could have used the one from the bone stock one he sold you?

He didn't want to ruin a good bike. I also had the motor pulled out of my frame so I saved him time. We knew that we would be helping each other out.

I picked up that Moto 4 for $250. It had 50 miles on it. It was kept in a barn most of its life. I love that quad to death. Even tho its a Yamaha

If you lived closer I would happily sell it to you. I'm probably going to throw it up on craigslist soon.

Sounds like you both made a good deal?

Yep Turned out good for both of us. I my be selling my Yamaha Moto 4 to him soon. I don't mind helping him and his family out they are extremely nice people. I'm bringing him the 400 next week sometime
