looks good 8) needs some new tires though ;)

i know i wish i had the money for em

nice!

but you need to tighten your chain!

lmao, i just said as he was takin that picture"dang ur chain is loose"

i like it loose... huh that dint sound right...

it tightens up when im on it and every time i try to adjust the chain sumthing goes rong so im not going to mess with it

your going to be sorry when it comes off and binds up in the front sprocket or wors in your engine :-X plus when its loose it can rip the teeth off.

idk if any of ur guys quads do this but when i sit on it and the suspension drops it actualy tightens up alot, idk if its sposed to do that but thats why i like it loose, but it usualy isnt that loose, i will have to tighten it soon

thats true but im sure it wont toghten up that much also when you lift up on the back end it gets looser. with my bike having more travel than yours i have to keep my chain perfect.

plus i hat that sound of my chain being loose. it feels like its going to break :P

yea it also lookes lookser cus its downhill and in gear so it doesnt roll so that takes all the slack outa the bottom, i guess i shoudl tighten it alittle... but i dont want to!

Nice quad 8)

Man you hot alot of sponsors :P

i dont have any sponsers?

do you mean stickers? lol

Nice kfx 400 !!  ;D btw u do have some pretty sweet sponsers lol

The chain should have 1 1/4" to 1 3/8" of slack.

You need new rear tires!

dont remind me! i have no moneyyy!!! tires are expensive

yea tighten that chain up it aint that hard loosen the 4 bolts on the swing arm and  turn the   the tinsion nut. Don't see hwo anythign can go wrong.  and i tell you the best way to get new tires is liek i did  got a  nice pair  of hardly used klaws and baja wheels  for 250  great deal. i never have my chain that loose and im right around 200lbs

Really good pic's. Bike looks good, plus it seems like your pretty good at photography too, so it makes it look even better. Way to keep it lookin clean.

I don't know if you are aware of the problem with the 05 and 06 Z400/KFX400/DVX400. They changed the clutch cover material to magneseum. The 2004 cover is aluminum. The water from the coolant corodes away the magneseum cover. Eventually mixing the oil and coolant and causing engine damage. Not to mention the damage to the cooling system from all the metal fragments flowing throught it. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but here is a link to Z400 Central. You need to cotact the dealer to see if they will change it for free. If not I would do it myself. The parts are between $110 and $170 dependind on if you get a discount on the parts of not.

is that the same on the ltr450??zuki

i am aware of the problems with the 05/06 z400s, and i have adjusted my chain many times before, when i adjust it i usualy just see if i can put two fingers inbetween the chain and the skid plate... is that to loose?

i pulled that thing off whene i put my pipe on and it seemed fine. also i have pulled my clutch cover off just a litle while ago to put a new clutch in and it wasnt real smooth but it wasnt that caroded... thats normal rite?

There isn't a problem with the LTR450 as far as I know.

Replace that cover ASAP with a 2004 one, it is alumunum. Slowly if is eating away at the magnesium cover. In the process it is circulating all the little metal particals that have been eaten away through your cooling system. Clogging up your radiator journals. Not to mention it slowly working it's way into the clutch side so it can mix with the engine oil.

lower rear shock mount is weak....needs to be guseted.
