Why buy a clean one? It's just going to get dirty.

Picked this 400 up for $1650, which is an amazing deal. Only thing wrong with it mechanically is the clutch slips at the top end. Went out and bought a new clutch pack, springs and gasket for $50 bucks. Works like a charm now.
The tires on the back came mounted to it, but they were Yahama rims with the Honda pattern drilled by hand into them, which at speed made the tire on the right (as if you were sitting on it) wobble like crazy. Got new 8x8s on it, picked them up for $30 a piece.
The very first thing we did when we got it home was we took the baffle out of it, because, who in their right mind wants a quiet quad?

Now buy some Anti-Tank Mines and a few hand grenades, and see how far you can fly in the air.

It's been awhile since I have ridden ATV (last time was december). I ride it all year round.
Now I really want to get back on! Unfortunately it broke down on me. TT^TT
And nice Banshee Mister Adam! (real men have dirty ATV, wait that sounded wrong)

Just recently got this bad boy..
It's a 2003 Honda 400EX. It came with this nice mud tires on it, so of course, I've got to use them. Also got some sand tires for it, so I can go to the sand dunes in Oklahoma.
Also looks like you like to pick your nose when not at your comp! Nice quad! And happy digging!

Wow you got one heck of a deal. I've been looking for a decent atv and most of the 400's I've seen they want at least twice as much for them. Have fun with it...but be careful. They aren't very forgiving when you wipe them out...especially when they land on top of you :cursing:

Yeah, we saw another one, a year older than mine and the lady wanted $2200 for it.
That's no joke. I was trying to do a donut in the mud and one of the back tires dug in and turned the four wheeler over, throwing me off.

How hard was it to replace the clutch pack? I remember replacing the clutch pack in my old mx 400 dirtbike:scared:, it wasn't that hard. I would imagine that there is more crap to move out of the way on a four wheeler though.

Actually, the clutch cover is on the right side, you just pull it off and boom, it's right there. Like any other vehicle though, they need to be soaked in oil (or at least, thats what i'm told. I'm a nerd, not a mechanic)
I'm eventually going to get a K&N Air Filter, probably a performance exhaust and I'm going to re-jet it once I get the air filter. My brothers has been re-jetted and it's faster than mine. Although, the clutch problem didn't help matters much in terms of being fast.
