| My brother in law was first in line at the dealership to buy one the weekend it came out. Since it was brand new he paid MSRP ($5699, i think?) better than the 400 ex cuz it has liqiud cooling and reverse, but is not as powerful as the raptor. I ride the damn thing more than he does so i can say that it is a great machine: smooth, sounds great, powerful, i like the way the seat is designed, amd wheelies like a champ. If you're considering getting one, i say go for it  |

| wheelie machine the z400 beat the 400ex & the raptor in dirt wheeles quad shoot out. It beat the 400ex because it has liquid cooling & reverse & 6 more hp. It beat the Raptor because it out handles it. The raptor has brutal power & torque. I dont ride off road, so i went for the power. But that z400 i bet rips a MEAN wheelie. I wanna ride one, i want my raptor & a z400.

| I love my Z. It's great for trails and really good for wheelies. I used to have a Raptor but it used to sputter when doing 12's but the Z has no problems. It turns and slides way better than the Raptor too. The Z is probably the best all around quad. |

| I have a 99 banshee, and its power is too snappy, and really violent. Id rather have a four stroke, much more easier to handle. That new Z400 is sweet. I will be gettin one in the next couple weeks. |

| 400z stunter This is Casey Huizenga. He stunted his Z for a little while after a GMO show here in Vermont. The kid was doing some impressive shit on a stock bike! He even had the jumping over the bars on lock down!

 | We sell them at my dealership and they are BADASS. It definetley feels better than the raptor. If I were to buy a quad it'd definetley without a doubt be the Z. I just sold one to a guy today for $5450OTD... List price on these things is $5699. If anyone wants one, come down to me, I'll get it as cheap as possible for ya. -nags
