400EX Trail Ride and New Parts Walk Around

[@LiveFreeOrRIP]

I dont care what people say. The TRX 400ex is the BEST trail atv ever created. My 2007 400ex is something I love so much... It was Like new when I got it original tires. No wear anywhere really. If they come out with a New EFI 400x I would pre order it. Ive owned and ridden MANY atvs.....

[@waynesmith7556]

I’m shopping for a used 400ex as we speak. What years were the best would you say in your opinion. FYI my price range is $2000-2500. Thanks I’m advance for any input.

@@RBTMOTORSPORTSLLC how to really know? I feel like people lie to get the sale. I basically know what to look for, like, minimal engine work,cracked frame, bushings and bearings. Any other tips to make sure I don’t get a dud?

[@baronmoye4358]

That’s the nicest 400ex I’ve seen, I gotta find me one now

[@brandonfoley8070]

Nothing more classic then a bug eye 400ex, everyone in the neighborhood had one of these back in the day

[@that_400ex_guy7]

Pete uploads, and more 400ex content. That’s a win win

[@carlosgabin5215]

I’m loving all the content and colabos ur a sabo are doing. Ur really doing ur part to keep the sport quads alive! These machines are all over for great deals. It’s cool seeing u guys working on them and showing ur own twist to them sweet!👊🏼👍🏼

[@hibrimic]

Just pre-ordered the 400ex t-shirt and some decals! I have a 2000 400ex that I've owned since new and still is like new. Love it and will never part with it. Pete keep up the great content!!!

[@PeteHager]

Thank you for your support! 😬🤘

[@LiveFreeOrRIP]

AWESOME MAN!!!

[@t-money8769]

Love the stainless steel sub frame. I can't found it anywhere.

[@PeteHager]

I'm assuming they chromed their old subframe when they powder coated the frame 👍

[@longboardguy]

I love your 400ex that is the perfect example of a fun sport atv that truly was made to last forever I think. Honda on the pipe sound so good always. I had a chance to buy a 2014 TRX 400ex I think it was one of the last years of this quad. It was so clean barely ridden. I kick myself for not buying that one but I sat on the decision too long haha. That’s some great editing Pete 🍻🇨🇦 fun video to watch.

[@tylermatheson2118]

Absoultly they are the best that's why it's my number one quad to save, 400 is looking good buddy 🤙can't wait for top quad

[@jamisonsenitz2528]

Mint pete just mint dude!!!!!!!

[@jamiesmo91]

Great start to the day when Pete Hager uploads a vid, awesome stuff

[@handsolo6241]

Ah yes the 400ex in its natural environment. I have a built 450er and 400ex. I like the 400 in the woods, the 450 on the bigger more open trails. The 400 is so flickable.

[@Nomadic-Nerds]

Awesome, love seeing the 400ex rip. Can't wait to see what Top Quad has in store for us 👍👍👍

[@Gladiatorguy1998]

Love these old quads

[@stephencrisson3595]

Man that 400ex looks good awesome work bro hell yeah💪🤙‼️

[@trop1calsea716]

Damn that thing sounds amazing white brother's full system on my 04 400 ex doing a build plan on buying lots of ur stuff on ur website

[@700rRaptorLife]

Dude that 400ex sounds good 👌🏾

[@smr4712]

Enjoyed this one Pete, thank you!, TRX 400ex all the way!

[@Cheap0]

I love the 400ex with a 416 port work and cam exhaust it will run with a 450 anyway even a bolt on 450 iv done it thiers videos of I just a great bike all around

[@Adam-bb9rm]

I have always wanted a sport quad, and have been looking for a good z400 or 300/400ex. Your video's are thoroughly entertaining to watch.

[@erichemmelgarn4215]

Get a 400 ex. The aftermarket is still there for them and parts are readily available and affordable. You won’t find that with suzuki even though the z400 is a good quad

[@LolliWANG505]

Z400!

[@Alexwinter123]

400ex feels like a mini raptor that doesnt want to tip over unless its tacky dirt, i like the gearing for trail riding, powerband is definitely more torque than top end but in my opinion they jump and handle great for what they are, personally i use my yfz for everything, but i dont mind riding a slower machine to its full potential without worrying about it, they take a beating

[@PeteHager]

You hit the nail on the head! That’s why I have a lot of fun riding it! 😬

[@erichemmelgarn4215]

Great video Pete!

[@everythingloud4068]

I love these quads!

[@keithkeller698]

That truck sounds 🔥

[@PeteHager]

Thanks man!

[@jasongroves3941]

Always great content

[@mountainstateoffroad5473]

Sweet quad man ! And you mentioning the 450r front bumper. I think I’ve seen where people have also put 450r shocks and other things as well direct from a 450r

[@demontraynewton3194]

I need that pipe

[@demontraynewton3194]

I love it keep up the good work

[@joepynakker4201]

Amazing Pete!! Keep them coming!

[@mamedoph9726]

آتابعك من سلطنه عمان استمر عقبال المليون

[@christophertorres4877]

You should buy a atc250r next

[@PeteHager]

Lol I appreciate the recommendation but I’d either ride it too slow or wreck I’m afraid 😂

[@jeffmiller7665]

Love the look of muffler and the sounds. But you can't beat a white Brothers/2 Brothers on a Honda.

[@alecphillips2581]

Ordered 2 shirts wish you did a yellow 400ex also but the red still looks good

[@rickybobbyflyingwild8119]

Man I love my 400 2005 I got revers on trails here in Ky is a must in less you like to push lol.

[@markh9675]

Great job on the channel Pete!! As a previous owner of a 2000 400ex (raced in hare scrambles), I suggest you avoid the cosmetic upgrades (they're fun, but has no real value except to impress other dudes). I'd suggest saving up some money and buy some Elka shocks (at least for the front end). Those 400ex front shocks are garbage...even for everyday riding. Being completely honest here, after your pipe/open airbox/rejetting, your next upgrade should be proper aftermarket shocks. You won't be able to use that new power without addressing handling. Or, at least, the new power will show you how subpar the factory shocks are.

[@mikeblock1838]

You should go to Harrison hills that in Wisconsin

[@thathondaguy7138]

Hey Peter can you make a video on why to buy a sport quad?

[@PeteHager]

That’s an interesting idea! Maybe I’ll do that sometime 🤔😅

[@alexhoudek13]

@That Honda Guy every one of his videos shows exactly why to buy a sport quad. Can you not tell how much fun they are?

[@adambroniewicz8933]

How about a little truck build series?

[@PeteHager]

Wish I had the funds to do something like that! Maybe someday😊

[@joeypooschke7914]

Love the 400ex, I really like the sound of a ROSSIER exhaust, I’m running Yoshimura RS3 on my YFZ450. I do want it louder tho. What ROSSIER is the loudest for a YFZ450 06 carb?? I remember you taking about rossier before. Good job on the film editing really good my friend.

[@PeteHager]

Thanks man! I think Rossier is planning on phasing out the R4 and focusing on the R5. When it comes to the loudest exhausts I would say any shorty pipe from a reputable brand is going to bark quite a bit. So far I would agree with a lot of the community that Monster makes the loudest pipes. If you’re going strictly Rossier then the R4 seems to be louder than the 5 👍

[@mzondi1970]

Well I was going to order the shirt but it keeps giving me an error message saying shipping addresses incorrect. I've ordered several T-shirts from you I don't know why it's an issue this time. Hopefully I'll be able to pick one on love the video by the way

[@PeteHager]

Apparently we had an issue on our end but we have it fixed now! Thank you for your support 😊🤘

[@mzondi1970]

Ty. Got it ordered.

[@Mr.1-OAK]

👌👌👌

[@kylebeach2316]

Wonder how a 250ex would sound like with a rossier exchaust system 🤔

[@rickybobbyflyingwild8119]

450 r shocks are a must tho in Ky to

[@t-money8769]

Are there any plans to come back to Florida? Sandlot???

[@PeteHager]

I heard the sandlot closed?? is it open again?

[@diegolopez6084]

Really want a 400ex just to have something a little less powerful then my raptor

[@dennis-br6vr]

400ex corners alot better than 700 raptor. Had both, love the 400 ex more.

[@shoes121255]

Any chance you can do the 400 shirt in gray or white? I love the look of black shirts but between dog hair and dandruff mine always look dirty .

[@PeteHager]

Unfortunately to keep costs down we only have one color option when we do shirt runs

[@OdysseyOffroad]

So Pete off topic is that a carven exhaust on the RAM?

[@PeteHager]

front is stock but its muffler and resonator deleted. It has a 3 inch Y pipe with 3 inch pipe out to 5 inch tips 👍

[@THATLTRFOUR50]

Im looking for extended a arms for for this 400 ex what do you recommend?

[@PeteHager]

I see a lot of people recommending Alba if you want the most bang for your buck. I've really enjoyed working with Houser and they have a great reputation so I'm probably gonna go with their Slicast MX arms 👍

[@THATLTRFOUR50]

@@PeteHager thankyou bro for that info really Also does having front extended arms affect the rear or driving of the quad I also want to do the rear extended axle ?

[@THATLTRFOUR50]

Also can you use stock suspension with the a arms ? Thankyou for help

[@PeteHager]

@@THATLTRFOUR50 if you widen the front you’re going to want to widen the rear. The best way to do that would be with a new axle over wheel spacers. If you buy standard travel a arms they will work with your stock shocks. If you buy long travel you’ll need longer shocks. A lot of guys upgrade to the TRX450 front shocks on the 400ex. Rocket Ron is great at setting the 450 shocks up to meet the long travel requirements if you go with that set up. I would recommend upgrading the front suspension to at least the 450r shocks if you’re going to buy a arms

[@THATLTRFOUR50]

Good info bro Thankyou I was thinking of buying the legacy front and rear by Elka ? So if I get the elka they would work work the standard +2 a arma by Alba correct ?

[@GeauxFastRacing]

Pete why downgrade to a honda so sad should have at least got a Sazuki Z, KFX 400 no Pete nobody wants a 400 ex shirt sir im so sad great videos though lol
