After watching the footage myself... I definitely think there's an audible difference in the exhaust! Thank you for watching, you ROOOOCK! 🤘 Chapters 0:00​ - Skit 2:27​ - Intro 4:13​ - Test Ride 10:51​ - Exhaust Sound Check 12:03​ - Changes and Mods Made 16:27​ - Closing

I love the 400ex so much. Especially 2005 and later when they added reverse. Honda really needs to bring it back. Great videos man!

You need a new test track. Your neighbors are probably having secret meetings to kick you out.

This is what it must be like buying a quad from that guy who uses wd 40 to fix everything.

That scooter kid wants all the smoke💨💨

Sounds like the jetting is really close if not spot on. Great job on this build Mike.

Why does his neighborhood remind me of home alone

Hey Heads up man! I am a mechanic for ATV's and so on... The valve cover Gasket ALWAYS leaks, it's just a shim for some reason Honda put that in there to act as a spacer rather them a "gasket" it is a problem with these bikes and the XR bikes. once the valve cover bolts are loosened they warp slightly and they never go back to normal shape. he fix for this is either to have both of those parts machined perfectly flat together OR cheap easy and just as reliable is to ""upgrade" a Paper or Composite gasket is the best fix in all honesty what I have learned. I have worked on so many 400EX's and XR 350's and XR400's they all are almost identical. Anyways I have installed many composite style valve cover gaskets. You need to look on eBay for a composite style Gasket it's cheaper and will NOT leak. ALSO keep an eye out for a head gasket to blow it's also VERY VERY common on 400EX's after the head has been removed for some reason the head bolts start pulling the aluminum with in the first 10 to 20 hours of ride time and it's a head ache. Hope you don't have that happen to you but if you do (or What I Would Highly Suggest doing) the GT Thunder Head Stud up Grade and comedic head gasket. Other then that I buy OEM parts through RockyMountain ATV/MC as well. You can pull up a parts Diagram and find anything OEM. www.ebay.com/itm/1996-2014-Honda-Cylinder-Head-Valve-Cover-Gasket-XR400R-TRX400X-TRX400EX-400EX1/174175349076?hash=item288da8e954:g:stUAAOSwnKRdS1Bk

That is cleanest sounding 400ex ive ever heard. It sounds so smooth

Definitely a good bit peppier than a stock 400, especially considering the stock exhaust still on it...400ex is a great all around sport/trail quad👍

That intro is hilarious! 😂👌🏻 The 400ex do sounds deeper and healthyer! Great work man! Keep it!

I am basically new to to You Tube but have watched a few things to help me with stuff around the house. A big thanks to you Michael Sabo and your informative videos you have been making! Love them and definitely will watch more!

@michaelsabo I really enjoy the 400ex series videos, I grew up with this particular year model and you were the baddest person on the block if you had a yellow 400ex in the early 2000’s so it’s fun watching someone bring one back to life

I was introduced to the 400ex when I was like 15... mind blown! Always wanted one.. found my LT250R and forgot about getting a 400ex. Not really tho.... they’re amazing machines, honda for the win AGAIN! On another note- mike power shifting thru his bougie ass neighborhood... neighbors like there goes that asshole again 😂😂
