Its indestructable and very well made!!! The z is just as good ive heard.. but havent stunted one yet! The raptor and banshee are too powerful.. they can be stunted but the 400 is like the 900rr ... loved by all!!!!

the raptor is NOT a stunt bike. The banshee, yes, but the raptor's weight/aluminum foil construction will not allow it to be stunted.

bend a-arms, twisted subframes, tweaked frames, all these things go through mind.

Hazen is a decent person
It's all about the 400EX for stunting. Will run at ballance point, good power, reliable, proved its self for 5 years and still going. It's the 900RR of quads. The Z is newer, shinier, and just a liquid cooled 400EX with a Suzuki sticker on it.
There's my .

400 ex is the stunt quad ....but nothing like a banshee, at least to me....little harder to get use to, but once u learn on a banshee, u can hope on a 4 stroke, and everything comes easy..hey radguy, u can take my banshee to Ny for a while, ill make the trip again..lol

i kept my 400 stock so that i didn't have to Funk w/ the carbs. It runs perfect how it is - idles on the 12 bar. But, could use some more power. My boy has the full white brothers exhaust w/ a jet kit & a K&N - way snappier than mine.

learn on a banshee then go with the z400.....i got a 400ex and i love it but i rode a z and its just about the same but it felt lighter and easier to balance, which if youve ever ridin a 400ex would think is impossible.....either way both are fahqin nasty

Hell Yeah!!! Just let me know when. It should start getting warm pretty soon. So I'll be having some parties once the weather breaks. We'll have to make some plans. Lata

I seem to have no problems. If you lern on something than you can do it. But the 400ex has a sweet balance point.

Dude, not sayin' it's not possible to stunt the Raptor. Just saying if you're rough on it, you'll be replacing parts and lots of them.
