i need help boys...should i get a shiny new 400 or hold out a couple more weeks for the 450.

 

I never buy anything the first year it comes out, wait until its been out and the reviews are in from the real world before you decide.... As usual with first model year vehicles, Im sure there will be some factory defects that will come out.

just my $.02

 

i'd either wait for the 450 or go with the suzuki ltz400

 

The 400EX is a great quad that hasn't been changed in 5 years, but still competes with quads that have been changed almost every year. If you buy it you won't be wasting money.
However, if Honda built that 5 years ago, imagine what's on the way...

i really want to be the first one with the 450 since i was getting a new quad anyway but X-slayer did make a valid point. i dont wanna deal with any issues especially since i am not as mechanically inclined as some of you guys are.
i am thinking better safe than sorry. if all is good then i get in a year or two. decision day is Sept. 12 when i get all the specs on the 450.

 

It's a Honda.. don't hesitate buying the first year

 

Wait for the 450, the honda is built right the first time.

 

Honda could have released a quad last year when everyone else did. They get the bugs out of their **** the first time instead.

 

the motor is from the Crf450 just like the YFZ450 motor is out of the WR450F... i wouldnt worry about bugs...

 

Yeah... what he said. Honda has already race proven the CRF450 motor. Hell, Kevin Windam even smoked Carmicheal on it. So you know the motor is bug free. All I would worry about would be the chassis, and I wouldn't even worry about that too much.

 

I never buy anything during its first year but it is a honda, so it is naturally gonna be a bad*** quad

 

yo go for the 450............honda does it right the first time

 

Honda has their machines dialed
you wont have a problem at all!

 

the suspense is killing me....can't find info on the 450 anywhere

 

No info yet, but here's a pic.

 

I didn't realize that it was coming with elka shocks and nerf bars!

 

Yeah, yeah, smart ***. I don't think it will be either... but hey it's a pic of it isn't it?

SO SHUT UP YOU

 

there is some debate over that pic...its authenticity is in question
i guess i will have to be an adult and wait and keep pimping the to keep busy

 

Awww..... did I hit the right button to set you off Tibbydoo?

Hit me with an email. I wanna here what your up to these days. Waxing your quad all day or actually working now??
