anyone have or ridden one of these yet? How is it compared to the raptor or 400EX? Whats the best deal you've found on one of these (Z400)

 

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

 

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.

 

dammit, dont tell me that!

I need a "Z"

 

the new "Z" is the ****, I've found that chicago cycle center or pilgrim motor sports has the best deals on those things

 

how much are they getting for them out the door?

 

It depends like if i were to go buy one from there i live out of state so i don't have to pay taxes, but i imagine with chicagos rep prob anywhere from 5-6 out the door, and then pilgrim i'm not sure of because they always have like that buddy pack **** goin on, so i really couldn't tell ya for 1

 

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.

 

When I get my wheeler it will be a four stroke also

 

Got my Z400 a few days ago. SWEET bike. Handles awesome, defineitly feels faster than the 400EX but will have to ride up on one to make sure.

 

the z400 is about 6 hp more than the ex. so you'll have no problem smoking one.

My boy is gona buy one, i am gonna ride it then.

z400 is sweet but for stuntin 400ex is by far the better quad. i had a rapto (sucks) and i've ridden the z400 alot. i'll keep my 400ex. just my .02

 

had the new z since it came out, stunted it like a ****, rips bad *** wheelies, dont even hafta try in first or second gear, juss slam gas in first, slam gas with a LITTLE bounce in 2nd, and hard bounce in 3rd. it endos like a ****, i beat a raptor drag racing, i know raptor beats it in HP and maybe torquem the kid was moderately okay at racing, i beat by a little, but its a bad *** bike, im bout to make a video it might be out in a month or so

 

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 **** on a stock bike! He even had the jumping over the bars on lock down!

 

damn thass nutz..i cant highchair wheelie or jump bars or nothin while front is up...but id say im pretty good, new to this forum

 

Getting mine this weekend

was gonna' get a 400ex..........

............ but can't pass up the best

 

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.

Suzuki just dominates all, they started sport quads and now that they can avoid lawsuits theyre gonna dominate them again :D no offense to any other quad owners but Suzuki juss owns... :D:D:D
