Believe me when i tell you I AM NO EXPERT, but it could be the pilot jet. That is relevant up to 1/4 throttle. Just a guess!

No its white smoke! Thats why it doesnt seem too serious to me.

I have a 2005 400ex that is blowing more oil than normal. When i start it while its cold, it blows smoke that im pretty sure is oil! Also, every time i go riding (4-6 hours) It blows a little less than half a tank of oil. My dad says its the piston rings but hes no expert! Also anyone know how i should jet it for a k&n filter? (only because the previous owner had put bigger jets on it, i dont know why)

Maybe you should check out motosport.com! I dont know about their gear prices but i know you get free shipping on orders over $100

So if I want to buy jets, will the size be optional, or does the kit come with multiple sizes? I need a smaller main jet, and i was wondering if it comes with multiple sizes in case I get an exhaust or something later.

Yeah, he was showing off for the video camera and we always ride the same street so we dont get in any trouble:) Thanks though for the comment

My buddy peter showing you guys how we do it in Miami!

P.s: the no helmet deal was only because he was doing stunts hed done a million times before

I was looking into learning how to jet a carb since it seems to be a very important part of the atv world! Found a few good pages about jetting and have a question. How would I increase the jet size on a pilot or a main jet? Would I have to buy new jets or is there a certain procedure to do so on the stock jets? Thanks.

P.s: try to lean any replies towards a beginners point of view

Ill take the 450r over the rest cause it has good power, its light for jumping, and has that Honda reliability that everyone loves. I personally dont like Fuel Injection either! Great part about the kawi is that it has reverse, and the yfz is fastest in a straight line. I would take the 450r anyday.

I think Tom and Jerry was an AWESOME show, but same thing "too violent". Well, at least i can watch some motocross from time to time!

I was just wondering if an 04-08 would fit my 03 z400. The 04-08 subframes can take a different grab bar, thats why i want it! Thanks:biggrin:

As a lot of people know, the o3 ltz, kfz, and trx 400s came with a subframe that did not allow you to remove the grab bar and put on an aftermarket one like the newer models. I was wondering how in the world i can put on a new grab bar on my 03 z400. Is there a special type of grab bar for them or something?

something almost identical happened to my 04 polaris predator. my mechanic told me it was the cdi box so you might wanna check that out!

HAH! i got pulled over by a florida fish and wildlife officer along with 3 of my buddies. I just didnt want him to take my bike since i didnt have the title with me, had no helmet, riding on the street, and am under 16 years old. Funny thing is, while he had us pulled over, a few other bikes were able to escape. the only reason he didnt chase them was because he had my friend handcuffed(says he had to since my buddy is in the marines)

haha, just wondering if you guy REALLY celebrated halloween already. cause in miami we still got an hour til it starts!

just got a kfx 400 instead because my uncle has the z400 with him in carolina. my kfx has a slip on yoshimura pipe, houser swingarm and a-arms, GForce axle, lowering kit, maxxis razrs, dyno jet kit, nerf bars, and a big gun rev box.

the selling prices are both around the same. Around $2700 to $3000 where i live. i just got offered an 03 ltz 400 fully customuzed by team suzuki so i might get that.

i want you guys(AND GIRLS) to help me make a decision on whether i should sell my 04 predator 500 and buy my uncles 03 ltz 400 (mint condition). my pred has given me a few problems such as getting engine oil into the air box and filter, the ignition takes any key since the original owner flipped it, the front tire is also bent and its a very heavy bike for me(im 14 years old and 115 lbs.) i want the 400 because its lighter so i can learn to do wheelies, has reverse, and i trust suzuki more. tell me what you think!

also, if youve flipped the bike recently you might need some carb cleaning! i would suggest you get rid of the fmf package, there are many underdogs making great performance pipes like SUPERTRAPP. might also look into repacking that fmf?

lol, i was trying to tell the 1st rider to lean to his left. When i noticed i was talking to the monitor i felt like a dumbass lol. nice vid!

i want to set up a camera! the bad thing is that the quads can be seen from the sidewalk if you look closely. i plan on sleeping in the backyard one night to catch/them. thanks for the ideas.

this is the downside of living in miami

i recently got the news that someone tried stealing my brothers 450r and my predator! its the worst feeling ever! anyone have suggestions on booby traps to make so i can catch these theifs or scare them away for GOOD!? if you ever decide to steal a quad, think about how you would feel if yours was stolen.

i really have no experience but im guessing it could be something with the key ignition. same thing happened to my predator. when i get it back from the mechanic ill tell you what it could be

ok ive been going crazy the last few days trying to figure out whats wrong with my predator! since i leave the bike at my dads house someone there left the red kill switch on. we bought a new battery and put it on but that didnt work and we tried 20 minutes later and it worked! we disconnected the positive wire to the battery and left it. the next day i tried starting it and it wouldnt do anything! no noise, no light, nothing! any ideas?

im pretty sure the guy that gave me his predator for my 400ex came in an avalanche with the predator on it an left with my 03 400ex on it.
