I did a small amount of riding Saturday and had a friendly run off with a fellow Honda Rider. A 2000 400EX to be exact sporting a full White Brothers R Series exhaust and jet kit. Fresh off the rebuild bench and fully broke in the 350 was feeling courageous and was up for the challenge. A rolling start gave the 350 a jump out front and that's where she stayed all the way to both machines top ends. It was not a blowout, but the X foiled every attempt the 400 made to get up front and held off any top end advance my slowly creeping further ahead of the struggling 400 with both throttles tapped to the max. Before the rebuild Warriors or (Raptor 350's) were about the only sport quads the X could easily leave in the dust. 400EX's were a challenge and really came down to who launched better, but by about 4th gear the X ran out of steam and the EX walked away to an easy victory. And those were STOCK 400EX's You can imagine my excitement, ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) (and the other guys disapointment) This matchup confirmed that Operation X-tra Power was indeed a true success on every level. So beware all 400EX riders... mashing the throttle and kicking up some roost wont be leaving this 3-wheeler guy in your wake any longer! ;D

So are you saying that any challenge that included a left or right turn would not be accepted?
