I truly hope this exp doesn't turn you away from from Honda. I truly think you got a lemon.

well in a way it does and in another way it doesnt.

i wont buy another new honda again. but theres a chance ill buy a used trx450r later on since im boring the 400ex.

im done with honda's stealerships. im happy with their products just the rider suport and customer service left alot to be desired for.

That is just your dealership. Mine has bent over backwards for me. They are a ma and pop shop so to speak. Family owned. They even have a pic of me racing hanging in their store.

well maybe its just the south cause every honda dealer here are complete as******. with the exception of one. but they are 3 hours away.

the suzuki and yamaha dealers are awesome down here. my buddy completly broke his swingarm and brake housing on his rear end of his z400 and they took care of it free of charge. and this was the owner mistake, not dealers like in my situation.

thats why i said ill never buy honda unless its used or from ritchie powersports(the only good honda dealer down here). only new quad i will buy is ltr450 or yfz450r.

i wouldnt recommend either YFZR or LTR.

they are both too wide for your riding i think.

dont you ride trails?

yea i actually race XC with a guy that has +3's on his z400 and he gets around just fine. i have +2's on the 400 right now and it is awesome. i will never like a stock width bike the way i like my 400 with +2's.

besides the ltr and yfz450r is 50 inches wide my 400ex is 48.5inches wide so it wont be a huge difference.

heres a picha of it to show the width

      having an issue with the unit when running under a load up a hill or in high gear, seems like the belt is slipping, there is a clapping sound coming from the primary clutch like it releases and snaps back in. i don't think I should have a noise like that. this is a friends unit and he has already replaced the primary twice with the same result.
      not sure where to look next

      My king quad 700 runs rough when cold then won't start some times but not often when it's hot. And occasionally smoke's a lot when it's cold I'm guessing that's rings but I'm worried unless it's causing the other problems
       
       
       
      All help is appreciated thanks

      Has anyone else had an issue on older king quads where the oil would leak from the top of the head (due to a failed gasket) and drip onto the hot exhaust? Mine got so hot one time it caught fire. Just wondering if this is a common issue, as I've seen the same thing happen on multiple bikes that were the same model.

      My 2014 750 king quad stalls sometimes when I touch or turn the handlebars,the problem has gotten worse,my machine has 475 miles and is only trail ridden,I have a new factory battery and i have 14.2 volts when the quad is running and 13.3 on the battery when not running,also using a multimeter there is no change in volts when turning the bars until it does stall,If I pull the 40 amp power steering fuse it will not stall.......I've been told its the ECU,Hate to buy one if thats not the problem,but its kinda leaning towards that,,,,,need some opinions.
