Looking for a new quad... - Quad / ATV Riders

Hey guys (and chicks) I'm sorta new to the stunting world but want to learn fast. I've ridden quads all my life and want something other than racing and trails. I'm looking for a new bike and was wondering about the Z400 and 400ex. Was wondering if you could give me the ups and the downs.
Thanks a ton,
-Marsh

by the way both will be used. I don't have the money to sink into something I'm gunna beat on.

400ex, can't kill hondas, easy to work on. 400ex is the best, most reliable all around quad ever made IMO. not to mention they practically wheelie them selves. Z400 is a close second though. the only reason i say honda is because of reliability with a used quad. both are A+ stunters and people will argue until the sun goes down on which is better.

I agree, I have a 2000 400ex and not 1 problem. the only inconvience is changing the spark plug, its a bitch to get out. and if whoever you buy it off of took the little case off the back to wheelie, then you have to go to the honda shop to pick the wrench up. i tried 17 and not one of them fit. bu8t other than that. the thing flies and can wheelie. its fun
